Scared to Be Human

[Verse 1]
(Scared to be human)
Mama said, “Don't be scared of the dark”
But he had shivers running down his spine
(Scared to be human)
Ten years on, shivers gone, but he hides
He won't ever let you see inside

[Pre-Chorus 1]
He goes out to the bar every Friday night
All he wants is to fight, he's only human
And under it all so lost

[Chorus]
Scared to be human
To open your soul
Scared to be human
Easy to be tough and cold
Scared to be human
Afraid to get hurt
Scared to be human
Your heart's stuck behind the walls

[Verse 2]
(Scared to be human)
Older now, not a hair on his skull
All his friends have got the same tattoos
(Scared to be human)
2am, got his knife in the dark
Way too much to prove and he can't lose

[Pre-Chorus 2]
They go out to the bars every Friday night
All they want is to fight, they're only human
And under it all so lost

[Chorus]
Scared to be human
To open your soul
Scared to be human
Easy to be tough and cold
Scared to be human
Afraid to get hurt
Scared to be human
Your heart's stuck behind the walls
