I burn the candle at both ends
In the morning hide the evidence
I paint over all the cracks
I'm growing colder, holding back
Try my hardest not to feel a thing
But through it all I still feel the sting

I spent so long trying not to be human
Fixing everyone else til I'm ruined
But I bleed and I cry
I don't have all the answers why
It's not a flaw in my design
I'm human
I'm human

Shaking hands holding white lies
Racing thoughts eating me alive
I'm cursed holding up the world
But I'm still that little girl
I think she'd ask me to put it down
And cry out loud

I spent so long trying not to be human
Fixing everyone else til I'm ruined
But I bleed and I cry
I don't have all the answers why
It's not a flaw in my design
I'm human
I'm human

I'm human
I'm human
I'm human
I'm human

I spent so long trying not to be human
Fixing everyone else til I'm ruined
But I bleed and I cry
I don't have all the answers why
It's not a flaw in my design

I'm sun rising, bones breaking
Flowers blooming, moonlight fading
Parts of me are dying and new sides of me are coming alive
My heart's been broken open
Spilling out is every version of me
That got me though every storm I ever weathered
I'm human
I'm human
