I swear, I don’t think that I’m special
Just trying to do a good thing to do
I swear my heart is in the right place
In relationship to you

But this is all more than I imagined
More devastating, more surreal
I see these people round with badges
And I just don’t know how I feel

Cause you seem like a nice person
A nice person to me
And it seems obvious we’re just humans
Born more or less free

I never thought that I was special
Been that way since we were kids
There’s a million people that are like me
In this world, stuck doin’ bids

But you come right into our nightmare
No fear or hate that can be seen
Through the fog, food for thought
Through the fog, fuel for dreams

Cause you seem like a nice person
A nice person to me
And it seems obvious we’re just humans
Born more or less free
