Human
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
Take off the makeup, turn down the lights
I'm standing naked with nowhere to hide
When all the layers are stripped away
You'll discover we all look the same
Most of the time I look so composed
But I'm 'bout to expose
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
I still get nervous and get butterflies
And sometimes I just need to have a good cry
I can fake it like everyone else
Be falling apart but no one can tell
Here goes the story all over again
Oh when will it end
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
Human, human...
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
Take off the makeup, turn down the lights
I'm standing naked with nowhere to hide
When all the layers are stripped away
You'll discover we all look the same
Most of the time I look so composed
But I'm 'bout to expose
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
I still get nervous and get butterflies
And sometimes I just need to have a good cry
I can fake it like everyone else
Be falling apart but no one can tell
Here goes the story all over again
Oh when will it end
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
Human, human...
It's all just an illusion, I am only human
I mess up, make mistakes and it's not easy
But I'll fess up and say I'm sorry
I'm human, I'm no superwoman
Sometimes life can feel like it's just one big show
I play my role, but you have to know I'm human
