Filled with content with the treasure you won You can't see if it shines till the cutting is done If the task takes you right back to where you begun Know some things are just meant for the re-run And we're only human If the light takes your eyes from the same safe old street And you can't see the path for the world at your feet Know it's always in motion it's never complete And some things we're just bound to repeat And we're only human Yeh we're only human Don't bow your head too long They say first one's a given your second's a choice Every word in your throat don't add up to a voice But they won't hear you sing till you're making some noise And we're only human Yeh we're only human Don't bow your head too long
