Tina Boonstra Only A Human
[Verse 1]
He's twelve years old today
Should be playing football with his mates
Instead, he's walking through the city streets alone
[?], he's freezing cold
[Verse 2]
There's a bomb strapped onto his chest
They called him hero as he left
But his brothers, they don't see now he's just a shell
Ticket to heaven, exit from hell
[Chorus 1]
Eyes locked onto the ground
Feel like cement blocks
Takes everything to keep him moving
Breath in, try to breathe out
You're not to blame now
You're only a human
Only a human
Only a human
[Verse 2]
Daises bloom on his skin
He only gives her a flower through his fists
She says, "One day, I'm gonna leave this all behind
'Cause if this is living, I'd rather die"
[Chorus 2]
Eyes locked onto the ground
Feel like cement blocks
Takes everything to keep her moving
Breath in, try to breathe out
You're not to blame now
You're only a human
Only a human
Only a human
[Bridge]
What kind of life is this?
I keep my head down, I keep my head down
Moving so I don't have to see anything
I keep my head down, I keep my head down
What kind of life is this?
I keep my head down, I keep my head down
Moving so I don't have to see anything
I keep my head down, I keep my head down
[Chorus 3]
Eyes locked onto the ground
Feel like cement blocks
Takes everything to keep on moving
Breath in, try to breathe out
I'm not to blame now
I'm only a human
Only a human
Only a human
Only a human
Only a human
