"Human" lyrics

I'm only human
I'm only... human

There comes a time
When you have to look back
At your life, all the things you know that
You have done, all the things that you've become

It's hard to say, all the reasons that you walk away
Did you think that I was just too strong?
Well, let me tell you you were wrong

'Cause even though I made it on my own
Sometimes the world is cold standing alone
I'm reaching for a hand that I can hold
'Cause in the end I'm only human

My heart's not made of steal
I'm looking for someone to break my shield (break my shield)
'Cause even superheroes have to feel
And in the end I'm only human

I may stand my ground (my ground)
But doesn't mean my mind's not spinning 'round
Don't be deceived by who you think I am
There's so much more you just don't understand

Have you seen me cry?
Have you ever really looked into my eyes?
You would see the walls around me ain't that high
Did you ever really try?

'Cause even though I made it on my own
Sometimes the world is cold standing alone
I'm reaching for a hand that I can hold (hand to hold)
'Cause in the end I'm only human

My heart's not made of steal
I'm looking for someone to break my shield
'Cause even superheroes have to feel
And in the end I'm only human

There's so many sides to me
So don't be fooled by what you see
Underneath all of this lies
I'm human on the inside

I'm only human
I'm only human
I'm only human!

'Cause even though I made it on my own
Sometimes the world is cold standing alone
I'm reaching for a hand that I can hold
(I made it! Yes, I made it!)
'Cause in the end I'm only human

My heart's not made of steal (my heart's not)
I'm looking for someone to break my shield
'Cause even superheroes have to feel
And in the end I'm only human

(Hu-)I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only human... human!
Sing it, girls
(Hu-)I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only
(Hu-) I'm only human... human!
