Human Lyrics

I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that's what you want
Be your number one
I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am

I can do it
I can do it
I can do it

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human, yeah

I can turn it on
Be a good machine
I can hold the weight of worlds
If that's what you need
Be your everything

I can do it
I can do it
I'll get through it

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human
I'm only human
Just a little human

I can take so much
Until I've had enough

'Cause I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human, yeah

What is the Meaning of Human?

It means that we can try and put all our effort into something, but in the end, we are only human. Something is going to get messed up somewhere. It also means that we can fake our emotions around others all we want, but we still feel the emotion we are hiding. Just because others don't sense it doesn't mean that we don't still feel it. We can be really good at walking and still fall down, we can be really good at being the person everybody comes to when they need to vent, but in the end, those words become our burden instead. It leaves you and goes to us.
