Still Human

I saw what people become
When there's nothing left
And music] to lose and
I had every reason
To become one of them, too but
I didn't
I'm still human
I'm still human
I watched the kindest hands turn
Into stone
Saw crowded rooms where
Everyone stood alone
I heard the truth get dressed in beautiful lies and watch good
Hearts grow colder just to survive
I saw forgiveness buried under
Saw people build their walls and lock
The light inside
And everyone was asking me to change to trade the warmth
I had for something made to pay
I almost let the darkness
Wear my face.
I almost called my
Bitterness my grace, but there's a line
I won't surrender.
