LYRICS:

So you say this is human 

Your heartbeat versus mine

Im in chains cause I'm choosing 

showing love or living life 

I shouldn't have to leave where I stand 

I shouldn't have to change who I am

To count as a human 

Feel my pulse 

With your hand on my heart 

You know it beats just as hard as yours 

Feel my pulse 

Feel my pulse 

Can't you see that im scarred 

I'm just the same as you are so just

Feel my pulse 

I wish I could reach them 

And strip away what separates 

It's the same air we're breathing 

The same tears run down our face 

So I don't have to leave where I stand 

And I don't have to change who I am

To count as a human 

Feel my pulse 

With your hand on my heart 

You know it beats just as hard as yours 

Feel my pulse 

Feel my pulse 

Can't you see that im scarred 

I'm just the same as you are so just

Feel my pulse
