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 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

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 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'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

This song means so much to me. It's the most recent song I've heard but it's so true. I don't want to say anything too much but in a world like the one we're living in, it's hard to tell whether or not someone is pretending. It's also hard to try and deal with everyday things. Especially if there are extra things stacked up onto you. Don't be afraid to let it out though.

     I apologize for going a tad off topic and saying something that I'm probably not willing to do myself but I Siriusly doubt anyone will read this and so I /guess/ it's Ok?

I'll try and update regularly with songs and hopefully- no promises though- stay perfectly on track...
