"Human"
Christina Perri
I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that's what you want
Be your number one
I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human
I can turn it on
Be a good machine
I can hold the weight of worlds
If that's what you need
Be your everything
I can do it
I can do it
I'll get through it
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human
I'm only human
I'm only human
Just a little human
I can take so much
'Til I've had enough
'Cause I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human
This is my challenge for you: find something positive about life and write about it. When negative thoughts consume us, it is impossible to be happy and stay positive. You've unloaded a tremendous amount hurt and anger in your blog, but now it's time to focus on the good. It's taken me several years and several nights of crying over my own troubles to realize that perception and outlook are everything. Find what (not who) makes your happy and go for it. "You are your biggest cheerleader. No one is going to be there to cheer you on with some things in life; you have to learn to cheer for yourself and to love yourself." Don't waste another day being sad, because when you do, you are stealing away precious moments of your life. Break away from the self-destructive habits you are forming. When negative thoughts start to creep into your mind, distract yourself with something else.
ReplyDeleteOh! And stop over-analyzing everything about every situation. "Some things aren't meant to be understood, just accepted.."
