Only Human Lyrics

The kiss that never happened
The call that never came
The hurt you mask by laughing
The one that got away
It's all in a day of emotional traffic
Stranded, broken, and tragic

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

I try to touch the sky
Fell right to the ground
Did my best to fly
But I just kept falling down
So many hopes and dreams shattered
Expectations broken and battered

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

Oh, human enough to forgive
Oh, human enough to embrace all there is

And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

The kiss that never happened
The call that never came
The hurt you mask by laughing
The one that got away
It's all in a day of emotional traffic
Stranded, broken, and tragic

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

I try to touch the sky
Fell right to the ground
Did my best to fly
But I just kept falling down
So many hopes and dreams shattered
Expectations broken and battered

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

Oh, human enough to forgive
Oh, human enough to embrace all there is

And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin

Finding out you're only human is hard
I want to change the world
But I don't know where to start
And I am fool enough to believe
There's hope among the ruin
Finding out you're only human

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
