Here are the Lyrics to HUMAN BEINGS, in English followed by the Italian (just in case anyone wants to sing along –as I did!)
HUMAN BEINGS/Esseri Humani
Nowadays, people judge you
Because of your appearance
They see only masks
They don’t even know who you are
You must show yourself invincible
Collecting trophies
But when silently you cry
You find out who you really are
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
Take my hand and stand up
You can trust me
I am an ordinary man
One out of many just like you
But what a splendor there is in you
In your fragility
And I remind you that we are not alone
Fighting this reality
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
Love, love, love
Won, wins and will always win
Love, love, love
Won, wins and will always win
Love, love, love
Won, wins and will always win
Love, love, love
Won, wins and will always win
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
I believe in human beings
The courageous ones
The courage of being human
Human beings
Human beings
Esseri umani
Oggi la gente ti giudica,
per quale immagine hai.
Vede soltanto le maschere,
non sa nemmeno chi sei.
Devi mostrarti invincibile,
collezionare trofei.
Ma quando piangi in silenzio,
scopri davvero chi sei.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani
che hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
credo negli esseri umani
che hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani.
Prendi la mano e rialzati,
tu puoi fidarti di me.
Io sono uno qualunque,
uno dei tanti, uguale a te.
Ma che splendore che sei,
nella tua fragilità.
E ti ricordo che non siamo soli
a combattere questa realtà.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani che hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani che hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani.
Essere umani.
L’amore, amore, amore
ha vinto, vince, vincerà.
L’amore, amore, amore
ha vinto, vince, vincerà.
L’amore, amore, amore
ha vinto, vince, vincerà.
L’amore, amore, amore,
ha vinto, vince, vincerà.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani che
hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Credo negli esseri umani.
Cedo negli esseri umani che hanno coraggio,
coraggio di essere umani.
Essere umani.
Essere umani.

Pammy love,
Cortland desrves such. I am equally in awe of his courage and generosity in sharing his amazing journey on both sides of the ‘picket’ of this spin called life. I had once acknowledged how his blog’s title encouraged me to actually shout it out loud to the world that I was hence ‘maskless’, though ‘wounded’. I can’t wait to see you and gopefully get a small souvenir art. I have been having some writer’s block for a while, but I just had to write this comment. Cheers to you both
