Ever wish that you could fly
Just leave and let your problems drift away
Ever look up to the sky
And wish you could be more than what you are
You are
Ever wish that you could be
The one inside the stories we all read
Do you ever think it seems
Impossible to reach your hopes and dreams?
We're only human in the end
I'm asking who am I again
Wish all this pain would go away
but we're just human for today
Ever sit there in the dark
Look in the past and everything's gone wrong
Do you ever feel alone and scared
Never prepared I know
Oh, I know
We're only human in the end
I'm asking who am I again
Wish all this pain would go away
but we're just human for today
As we were kids we would
flip through the pages
Of all of the stories
Of the extraordinary
And constantly dreaming
That someday we'd be someone
As we grew up
Innocence turned to rage
From the slap we all take
From the reality we face
When we learn that we're no one
How have we become no one?
We're only human in the end
I'm asking who am I again
Wish all this pain would go away
but we're just human for today
