Lyrics

Today I heard the strangest
I heard the strangest song
A DJ a star away is
Playing it to turn us on

My heart started glowing
I feel it inside, it’s flowing

I say I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
I know, I know, I know
How we’re designed, yeah
I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
But from another planet
Still they call us humankind

Today I had the strangest
Feeling that I belonged

Before I was dying
I feel it inside, now I’m flying

I say I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
I know, I know, I know
How we’re designed, yeah
I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
But from another planet
Still they call us humankind

Oh, alright!

Before I was dying
I feel it inside, now I’m flying

I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
I know, I know, I know
How we’re designed
I know, I know, I know
We’re only human
We’re capable of kindness
So they call us humankind

「Coldplay」Comment

You can sketch ideas out in the studio sometimes, and that was one we were really kind of struggling with before Max took the reins. It didn’t sound very fresh; it had a good energy, but was maybe just a little bit too rock for us, and he really gave it more of a modern shine. It could be from just editing the basic song and the song structure or it could be adjusting slightly the rhythm pattern to make it all stick together better.
