It’s time to be human again
if only for the weekend
to stand too long in the sun
to have one too many drinks 
and stand in the sun some more

It’s time to be human again
and if only I could remember the name 
of that one guy who sang that one song
i can remember his face
just not his name
oh and that girl who was in that movie
that was a good movie
dang I’ll probably remember in 30 minutes
anyways

It’s time to be human again
if only for today 
to have lived all kinds of different lives
in all kinds of different ways
only to find ourselves here 
and aint it weird 
to start over and be
just as much the fool you were when you began
but that much wiser and no less stronger

It’s time to be human again
not somebody’s hero 
not one of those guys you see
jumping out of helicopters in the commercials
aiming a gun at some threat offscreen, saluting you with a grin
not just another kid with a fresh haircut straight out of boot camp

if only for the weekend
It’s time to be just the human I’ve always been
