Human Lyrics

Gazing down on fields far away
Staring out at all I see
I've just returned from a war that was lost
And the only foe I had was me
No retreat from the forces I fought
Believing I could only win
And from grace to the ground I fall
I am human again


I saw myself untouched by hate
But I was much too numb to feel
And the angels that carried me away
Let me know they weren't real (but I am)
And no matter how strong this vision was
It was not of who I am
And from grace to the ground I fall
And I am human again

Hold me now until I sleep my love
Follow me down, follow me down
I will not be so scared anymore


As long as my feet don't leave the ground
And I'm staring down at fields faraway
Surrounded by this dream I'm in
And from grace to the ground I fall
And I am human again

Josh Joplin Group was a Georgia-based pop music band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin, a self-proclaimed "dork" who nonetheless dropped out of school in tenth grade to become a folk singer like his hero Phil Ochs, brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, folk-rock melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung").
