HUMAN
Hold me back
Take it slow
I've been a stranger for your love

I can feel
You breathe in me
We know it never is enough

Who says I'm ready for your kind of love
Ready for your your kind of hope
I know you're breaking me, shaking me, saving me now

With my back against the wall
I know I'm feeling so human

I can hear
Quiet screams
I've been in danger for your love

All I feel
Is healing me
You make me human for your love

Who says I'm ready for your kind of love
Ready for your your kind of hope
I know you're breaking me, shaking me, saving me now

With my back against the wall
I know im feeling so human

Let me in and tell me its over




I wont let you go, till its over
Its breaking me down

With all the horrible and toxic things going on around the world, it is great to see people like these. True heroes that deserve all the respect in the world.

Kendra Waddams

Absolutely agree. Especially so much press coverage when men do bad things. But most of these rescues were masculinity at it's finest.

Sam Stringer

Agree!!

@ExistentialMan-he4jt Your point being . . .

The guy that scaled the building to save the toddler was incredible!

Megsy Bond

Yes, I'd put him at number one. He put himself in serious danger to save that child. That's a true hero.

Wamacho

Someone held the child. He's a hero too.

Dickbutt

@Wamacho What I don't get is why didn't the guy holding the child just pick him/her and bring him/her over to his own balcony?

How heavy could the child be? 15kg?
