I've tried so hard to become human
But all I feel is regret
Inside this empty shell we're all so afraid
Of what we've become

I've tried so hard to become human

I myself have built the cross I wear
Every passing day is filled with despair

I see no end to all this pain
This human plague that I pity
The love I feel is shallow and weak
The world is dead through my eyes

I've tried so hard to become human

I myself have built the cross I wear
Every passing day is filled with despair
I spit upon humanity, I see the world as dust
I feel no compassion neither love or lust
Oblivion upon us

I sink into the coldest of waters
To drown my tears of shame
For nothing but the pain of suffering
I continue to breathe

I myself have built the cross I wear
Every passing day is filled with despair
I spit upon humanity, I see the world as dust
I feel no compassion neither love or lust
Oblivion upon us
