Lyrics
We break, we bend, we stumble through the fire
Tryna hold the weight like a worn-out wire
Smile on the face, but the cracks run deep
Fighting these battles that we don't let seep
We dream, we fall, we rise, repeat
Running on fumes with broken feet
But I ain't perfect, nah, and neither are you
And that's the realest thing that ever got through
We rise, we fall
We're only human after all
We break, we crawl
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
Taught to wear strength like a second skin
But no one ever showed us how to let love in
Fake it 'til you make it — yeah, that’s the line
But some days even that can’t hide the climb
We’re bruised, we’re built, we’re battle-scarred
Tryna heal slow in a world that’s hard
But you don’t gotta carry it alone, my friend
I’ll be right here 'til the end
We rise, we fall
We're only human after all
We break, we crawl
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
It’s okay to fall apart
It’s okay to need a hand
We’re all just trying to stand
So give yourself some grace again
We rise, we fall
We're only human after all
We break, we crawl
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
Oh, we're only human
We're only human after all
