Only Human Lyrics

Lyric discussion by MRS_A-Z 

Cover art for Only Human lyrics by Jason Mraz

could be about marijuana, but looking at the lyrics of "plane" i think that one is too. It's kinda obvoius that he's had a problem with it.. i think he's fine now, idk, haha my obsessive self knows that from reading his online journal.

but i like this song a lot, he has an amazing voice, and it shows here, i thought it was about human flaws, with references to mj as an example. but the "product of a seed. the seed is sown, all alone" thats referring to the "30 meters and a foot" tree. something so huge and amazing is the product of something so little as a seed. hmmm not a marijuana plant i guess... oh yeah, and the "we're all breathing in" part... well plants do provide oxygen, not just mary jane zach. jsyk.

so maybe this song is about how we as humans have the potential to do great things, but we're flawed in nature, but we are working on those flaws, and will overcome them soon "only human, so far, so far"

it keeps referring to this "tree" (that i doubt is a marijuana plant) metaphorical?? for what? many things haha but thats part of the meaning's mystery.
