I'm Human Defective
Helalyn Flowers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am a human defective
And I live inside a pretty lie
I was born to be the sweetiest part of this space
But everything I touch becomes a dirty mistake
It's not the way to be free
It's not the way I need to be

And I am imprisoned

Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake
Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake

I am a human defective
Like a sleepy-star I'm acting blindly
I am made of strings and little precious stories
I am fragile but incline to commit insanities
It's not so easy to be
It's not so easy to be free

And I feel my implosion

Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake
Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake

I'm human, defective

Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake
Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm just a game
I'm so lost in the deep of this earth
I'm a sweet mistake





Lost in the deep of this earth
'Cause I'm... a Human defective...
