The song "Humans Can Not Apply" is a deeply personal song and tells the story of a someone in an abusive and troubled relationship. As a last resort, they escaped and ran into hiding for several years before they were finally heard from again. Through all of the troubles and solitude, they were replaced at their job by a robot and had no means of making ends meet to pay the bills or put food on the table.
The song haunts me because the connection is so personal and intense. Many people have these same struggles-some have it much worse.
"Humans Can Not Apply" Lyrics
These words cut me to my dying bones
What I heard in my fractured home
Never relaxed, not this time, no way
The thoughts swirl in my active mind
Carry me, carry me, carry me away
As the grains drip through, I slide away
Grasp or squeeze or release these chains
No substance left at the end of the day
Nothing retained from the words they say
Carry me, carry me, carry me away
Memories used to fill the room
Escaping that space was all I could do
Coded words cut deep to the core
I went through the motions week after week
Carry me, carry me, carry me away
A crack of light in my cold pine box
One last message for my aching mind
Etched on the lid of my last goodbye
Were the words, “humans can not apply”
Carry me, carry me, carry me away
