Human
Embracing Mortality: Beyond The Black's Reflection on the Human Journey
Lyrics
I can hear all those many voices fighting
I perceive various conflicting voices struggling.
Every time I wake up, I'm someone new
Upon waking, I find myself constantly evolving into a new identity.
In the end I don't feel like I'm deciding
In the end, I feel as if I have no control over my decisions.
Nothing more than a blank space coming through
I am nothing more than an empty presence emerging.
I can see that the way ahead is burning
I observe that the path forward is filled with challenges.
And I see that there is no turning back
I realize there is no option to retreat or go back.
Straight ahead, through the flames, we go together
We proceed boldly through difficulties as a united force.
Live today, cause tomorrow we'll be dead
Embrace the present because our future is uncertain.
We're born to die, we are human
We, as humans, are destined to face mortality.
We're born to die in the end
Our ultimate fate is to perish in the end.
We're born to die, we are human
We, as humans, are inherently mortal.
And all our pride will turn to sand
All our pride and accomplishments will eventually crumble.
Cause after all, we're born to die, my friend
Because, ultimately, we are destined to face mortality, my friend.
I can hear all those questions without answers
I hear numerous unanswered questions around me.
I get by, but I can't say that I'm sane
I manage to get by, but I can't claim to be mentally sound.
In the end we're bound to meet the maker
In the end, we are inevitably going to confront our creator.
And we got no one else but him to blame
We have no one else to blame for our fate but ourselves.
I can see that this road leads to a dead end
I recognize that the path I'm on leads to a dead end.
And I still try to run and finish first
Despite this, I persist in trying to be the first to reach the end.
Straight ahead, don't think twice, we'll go together
We move forward without hesitation, facing challenges together.
Live today and forget how much it hurts
Live in the moment, forgetting the pain it may bring.
We're born to die, we are human...
We, as humans, are destined to face mortality...
Cause after all, we're born to die, my friend
Because, ultimately, we are destined to face mortality, my friend.
Will you show me a way to see the sense here?
Can someone guide me to understand the purpose in all of this?
Will you show me what I'm supposed to feel?
Show me the emotions I am supposed to experience.
Straight ahead, through the flames, we keep on walking
We persist in walking through challenges and hardships.
Someone tell me that none of this is real
Someone affirm that none of this is a reality.
We're born to die, we are human...
We, as humans, are destined to face mortality...
We're born to die, we are human...
-We're born to die, we are human
We, as humans, are destined to face mortality.
And all our pride will turn to sand
All our pride and achievements will crumble away.
'Cause after all, we're born to die, my friend
Because, ultimately, we are destined to face mortality, my friend.
We're born to die, my friend
We are born with the inevitability of facing mortality, my friend.
