I looked up at my ceiling. Why didn't anyone care? Didn't anyone see I was lonely? I could hold my own and didn't need anyone but being the single one who people told there crushes too hurt. Was it because I was different? I can't help it if I was weak, or if I was just a human. Almost everything they could do, so could I!

"I can hold my breath

I can bite my tongue

I can stay awake for days

If that's what you want

Be your number one"

I nodded my head as tears pricked at the corners of my eyes.

"I can fake a smile

I can force a laugh

I can dance and play the part

If that's what you ask

Give you all I am

I can do it

I can do it

I can do it."

I sucked in a breath and jumped up, raising my hands.

"But I'm only human.

And I bleed when I fall down.

I'm only human.

And I crash and I break down.

Your words in my head, knives in my heart,

You build me up and then I fall apart.

'Cause I'm only human, yeah!"

The dark glares I had gotten from other monsters haunted me.

"I can turn it on

Be a good machine

I can hold the weight of worlds

If that's what you need

Be your everything

I can do it!

I can do it!

I'll get through it!

But I'm only human!

And I bleed when I fall down!

I'm only human!

And I crash and I break down.

Your words in my head, knives in my heart,

You build me up and then I fall apart.

'Cause I'm only human, yeah..."

I wiped my eyes and stood tall.

"I'm only human

I'm only human

Just a little human!

I can take so much

Until I've had enough

'Cause I'm only human!

And I bleed when I fall down!

I'm only human!

And I crash and I break down!

Your words in my head, knives in my heart.

You build me up and then I fall apart,

'Cause I'm only human, yeah."

I took in a shaky breath, and put on a fake smile. I headed to the bathroom, not knowing that Undyne, Papyrus, Sans, Frisk, Mettaton, and Alphys were at my door and heard me through the thin wood and walls.
