Whether you give up Or you give it your best It’s hard not to feel like You’re failing the test
‘Cuz tragedies happen Mistakes will get made We love and we cry We stumble and try To not feel so afraid
But we’re only human Nothing more Not far removed from the Garden of Eden And God only knows what before
We’ll do most anything to avoid the pain Hiding our hearts and casting the blame Six thousand tongues, but we’re all the same Ain’t no need to carry that shame Cuz we’re only human
The mind was created To help us all thrive Get out of the jungle And just stay alive
But gone is that danger Gone is that threat New lessons get learned Pages are turned And then we forget
‘Cuz we’re only human Nothing more Just a few million years from that monkey business And a little bit of stardust before
We work so hard to tame The fear in our brains Dying to love and hiding from pain Knowing we got here, but not why we came It’s enough to just drive you insane
‘Cuz we’re only human Nothing more So scared to lose a game we didn’t choose But not knowing how to keep score
‘Cuz we’re only human That is all Just walkin’ the rope between fear and hope Knowing we’re gonna fall ‘Cuz we’re only human
‘Cuz we’re only human
