We're Only Human

[Verse 1]

Whether you give up

Or you give it your best

It’s hard not to feel like

You’re failing the test

Cause tragedies happen

Mistakes will get made

We love and we cry

We stumble and try

To not feel so afraid

[Chorus 1]

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

Cause we’re only human

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus 2]

Cause 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

Cause we’re only human

Nothing more

So scared to lose a game we didn’t choose

But not knowing how to keep score

Cause we’re only human

That is all

Just walkin’ the rope between fear and hope

And knowing we’re gonna fall

Cause we’re only human
