V1
Oh, I know it feels like
Every word begins a fight,
But I swear we have
So much more in common.
We have hopes and broken dreams.
We get hurt and we both bleed.
We both understand there's problems,
But to solve them
C1
Can we be human?
I just want to have a conversation.
It might be stupid,
But we both might be mistaken.
It might sound crazy and impossible,
But I feel so responsible to love you
And the only way we can do it
Is for us to just be human.
V2
Oh, somewhere along the line
We let fear change our design.
Will we turn it back,
Or just accept the ruins?
All this pain, all this war,
All this hate we swung like swords,
Will we stop and ask ourselves,
"What are we doin'?"
C2
Can we be human?
I just want to have a conversation.
It might be stupid,
But we both might be mistaken.
It might sound crazy and impossible,
But I feel so responsible to love you.
And the only way we can do it
Is for us to just be human.
Can we just be human?
B1
We may not see eye to eye,
But we'll find hope if we just try
And do our best with what we have
Cause it's a vapor.
So let's agree to disagree,
But can we live in harmony?
Cause we're all fashioned
In the image of our Maker.
And I think we'd both agree
We need a Savior.
C3
So, Can we be human?
I just want to have a conversation.
It might be stupid,
But the love might be contagious.
It might sound crazy and impossible,
But I feel so responsible to love you.
And the only way I know to do it
Is for us to just be human.
Can we just be human?
