Lyrics:
They keep pointing at me
Telling me what’s wrong with me
They keep laughing about me
behind my back
I need a little sunshine & daydreams
A little sunshine & daydreams
It’s not easy being human
It’s getting harder to breathe in this world
It’s not easy being human
Aren't you dying to feel alive?
Can you look me in the eyes
And know how I feel inside
The same mistakes you have are mine
Cant you feel my heart racing
Feel the rhythm
it beats the same as yours does
Different melody with the same wrongs
Yeah we all sing the same song
It’s not easy being human
It’s getting harder to breathe in this world
It’s not easy being human
Aren't you dying to feel alive?
It’s not easy being human
It’s getting harder to see in this world
It’s not easy being human
Aren't you dying to feel alive?
Please have grace and mercy on me
Have grace and mercy
have grace and mercy on me
Have grace and mercy
It’s not easy being human
It’s getting harder to breathe in this world
It’s not easy being human
Aren't you dying to feel alive?

Lacey’s voice always feels like it gets down to all the cracks and crevices that I haven’t found in myself yet, and lifts them up to the light.

Lacey, we love you so much! You're voice has so much depth and meaning. When I heard your voice, it was the first time I noticed the character and depth found in the human voice. It's like eating something and tasting all the subtle hints of this and that. Your voice is remarkable and these guys are amazing musicians and singers as well!

This song is beautiful, and I love the message behind it. The world is sick and messed up, but at the same time, we have to look into our own hearts and examine ourselves. I've found, especially recently, I am too quick to judge and harshly criticize others who do or say things that are rude or wrong or make me angry, but I have to look at myself and see where their mistake is in me. When have I done the same thing? Where is that seed in me, maybe in a different form? I love that line "the same mistakes you have are mine." We have to take the plank out of our own eye before we remove the speck from our brother's, like the Bible says. Also I'm so honored that my fan vid made it in there! Haha I was so surprised you guys got it in! I feel like God has been teaching me this lesson lately, so being in the video feels like a confirmation of that. Thank you for giving us fans the opportunity to be a part of this. While the world is getting darker, we are all human and we can make it a better place through the strength Christ gives us. 😄😊💜

Honestly, I hadn’t heard of Islander, yet I need to check yas out! I love the message and “have grace and mercy on me.” The Bible states that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance produces character; and character produces hope. And our hope doesn’t disappoint us. It is hard, yet we are to build each other up and carry each other just as Jesus did and does. Thanks for including me! 2:20ish thumbs up. I screamed, “What?!” When I saw it cuz I didn’t believe it!
