The Human Factor Songtext
von Davy Lyons

The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
Fantastically flawed
In the king or queen's role
Or in the role of pawn

The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
That thinks it runs the show
No, no, it ain't that way
Only a fool thinks so

I am rising
I'm rising to meet you
I am rising
I′m rising to meet you

The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
The body bags revealed
And those that go unknown
Killed in hatred and greed


The heart of the matter
It's the human factor
Whatever makes us heal
Solitary searching
Comforting company

I am rising
I′m rising to meet you
I am rising
I'm rising to meet you

The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
That see its tiny place
In night's silver armies
Or on the river′s face

The heart of the matter
It's the human factor
Kindness and cruelty
The latter it don't give much
But the first courageously

The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
The softest lullaby
From a lover to a lover
From a parent to a child


The heart of the matter
It′s the human factor
Don't worry what they say
I love you just as you are
Darling, always, that way

I am rising
I′m rising to meet you
I am rising
I'm rising to meet you
I am rising
I′m rising to meet you
Yes, I am rising
I'm rising to meet you
