Human

It's human to crave what I can't hold
It's human to feel it in my bones
My heart was never built that cold
I can't pretend I don't

It's human to want what slips away
It's human to miss what couldn't stay
I'm flesh and blood, I'm not okay
I can't deny I'm human

And every time I fall apart
I feel it rushing through my veins
I'm only made of fragile parts
And I can't wash away the pain

I screamed and I begged
Took every breath I could get
Stood in front of you shaking
With everything unsaid
I needed something in return
Some proof it wasn't useless
I couldn't live without the burn
To break for love is human

(Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh)
(Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh)
(Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh)
(Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh)

It's human to bleed when you're cut deep
It's human to fall when love won't keep
Sometimes surrender isn't weak
That's just how we're built

It's human to reach with open hands
It's human to not understand
Why holding on can hurt so bad
But still we try again

And every time I fall apart
It echoes underneath my skin
I'm only made of beating heart
And I can't numb what's within

I screamed and I begged
Took every breath I could get
Stood in front of you breaking
With nothing left to defend
I needed something in return
A reason to keep moving
I couldn't live without concern
To risk it all is human

Strip me down, I'm shaking, exposed
I'm only skin and fragile hope
Hold my hands before I close
Into someone I don't know
I'm not steel, I'm not stone
I'm not meant to be alone
Every scar and every bruise
Is proof I feel it too

I'm human, open in the light
Human, fighting every night
Human, trying to survive
I can't turn to stone

I screamed and I begged
Took every breath I could get
Stood in front of you bleeding
With everything I had left
I needed something in return
Some love that wasn't broken
I couldn't live without the hurt
To give my heart is human

It's human to want what I want
It's human to ache for what I miss
My heart's not made of steel or stone
I can't help it, I'm human

It's human
It's human
Oh, yeah
To feel like this is human
