Human Lyrics


Pretenders Human

I play a good game but not as good as you
I can be a little cold, but you can be so cruel
I'm not made of brick, I'm not made of stone
But I had you fooled enough to take me on

If love was a war, it's you who has won
While I was confessing it
You held your tongue
Now the damage is done

Well there's blood in these veins and I cry when in pain
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside

I thought you'd come through, I thought you'd come clean
You were the best thing I should never have seen
But you go to extremes, you push me too far
Then you keep going 'til you break my heart, yeah, you break my heart

See I bleed and I bruise, oh, but what's it to you?
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside

I crash and I burn, maybe some day you'll learn
I'm only human on the inside
I stumble and fall, baby, under it all
I'm only human on the inside

And the damage is done

Well there's blood in these veins and I cry when in pain
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside

I crash and I burn, maybe some day you'll learn
I stumble and fall, baby, I do it all
I'm only human on the inside
