Switchfoot is an alternative rock band from San Diego, California. The band was formed in 1997 with the brothers Jonathan Foreman (lead singer/guitarist) and Tim Foreman (bass). Long-time friend Chad Butler (drums) joined soon after. Eventually the band evolved to what it is today with the addition of members Jerome Fontamillas (key/guitar/electronics - formerly of Mortaland Fold Zandura) and Drew Shirley (guitar - formerly of All Together Separate). Although the band started out playing at Christian music festivals, they shun the label of "Christian rock," with singer and guitarist Jon Foreman saying, "For us, it's a faith, not a genre.

New Way To Be Human Lyrics

Switchfoot

Every day it's the same thing
Another trend has begun
Hey kids, this might be the one
It's a race to be noticed
And it's leaving us numb
Hey kids, we can't be the ones

With all of our fashion, we're still incomplete
The God of redemption can break our routine

There's a new way to be human
It's nothing we've ever been
There's a new way to be human, new way to be human

And where is our inspiration
When all the heroes are gone
Hey kids, could we be the ones?

Cuz nobody's famous, and nobody's fine
We all need forgiveness, we're longing inside

There's a new way to be human
It's nothing we've ever been
There's a new way to be human
Spreading under my skin
There's a new way to be human
Where divinity bends
It's a new way to be human, new way to be human

I'll find your love across my impossible space
You've created me, take me out of me into
A new way to be human, to a new way to be human

You're a new way to be human
Where my humanity bends
To a new way to be human
Redemption begins
You're a new way to be human
You're a new way to be human
You're the only way to be human
You're a new way to be human
