"How To Be Human" lyrics

"How To Be Human"

I read books, watched TV shows
And taught myself everything I know
Like laughing when the joke's not funny
Or telling a lie over honesty

'Cause there's a million giveaways
That me and them are not the same
And life feels like the "Truman Show"
There's always something I don't know

Am I hiding it well? (ah)
I wonder if they can tell (ah)
That I'm not like them but I'm trying to be human

Am I doing it right? (ah)
Can they see it in my eyes? (ah)
'Cause there's no guidelines
How do they find
How to be human

I wish I could
Break the "fourth wall" every day
Cut the cameras. Can we do another take?
Analyse my conversations
Interactions. I replay them

Feels like there's a million giveaways
That me and them have different brains
And life feels like the "Truman Show"
There's always something I don't know

Am I hiding it well? (ah)
I wonder if they can tell (ah)
That I'm not like them but I'm trying to be human

Am I doing it right? (ah)
Can they see it in my eyes? (ah)
'Cause there's no guidelines
How do they find
How to be human

Human
They talk around the truth
Human
They all know what to do
Human
All these unspoken rules
They do them
Are you one human?

Am I hiding it well?
I wonder if they can tell
That I'm not like them but I'm trying to be human
