about
This song revolves around the concept that despite all of our differences we are all brought together by our fears and emotional needs. We all just want to loved and accepted. Sometimes we forget that and hurt others, but this song is about opening your heart and connecting with others on a deeper level.
lyrics
I've got half the world championing my cause.
How do they manage to see through all my flaws?
If I could only have as much faith in myself as they have in me,
I would risk it all, I would go without guarantee.
But I'm human, and I have fears just like you.
But I'm human, I've got some issues I've got to work through.
And despite all of my fears I keep telling people to break out of their shells,
Share with this big world a piece of their personal hell
Cause if you hold it all in, you're gonna leave the world with no friends
There's no need for prestige, we're all desperate, afraid, oh, wanting to be needed
Cause I'm human, and I have fears just like you
Cause I'm human, I just want to be loved too
I don't know if I ever want to give up my fears
Cause in all their trouble it's what's real.
Don't be afraid to love with an open heart
The only real solution is to go back to the start.
Cause I'm human, and I have fears just like you.
Cause I'm human, I just want to be loved too.
Cause I'm human, I've got some issues I've got to work through.
Cause we're all human, it's about time we start seeing it through.
