Only Human

[Verse 1]

Intruder comes, it's 4 a.m. 

The witching hour's back again and I

I'm running ragged through the maze

I know the heart's a tricky beast

Like some cool ephemeral spirit of the night

Lures you in, robs you blind, and leaves you bleeding on the street

[Pre-Chorus]

When all you want is arms around you

And a whisper in your ear

Saying everything's gonna be alright

Even if it's not

[Chorus]

'Cause you're only human

You can only take so much before you break

And you feel like you're drowning alone

And the waves keep on coming and hold you down

And the circle goes round and round and round and you can't breathe

But there's light that you can't see

[Verse 2]

'Cause I know these rooms, these prison halls

I've stumbled through so many times before

To find the devil lurking just behind the door

I don't pretend to understand

The roads you've walked, how you still stand, but I

I wanna try to lift some of the burdens that you bear

[Pre-Chorus]

When all you want is arms around you

And a whisper in your ear

Saying everything's gonna be alright

Even if it's not

[Chorus]

'Cause you're only human

You can only take so much before you break

It feels like you're drowning alone

And the waves keep on coming and hold you down

And the circle goes round and round and round till you can't breathe

But there's light that you can't see

Yeah, there's light you cannot see
