  • What I would do to take away this fear of being loved
    Allegiance to the pain
    Now I'm fucked up and I'm missing you
    He'll never be like you
    I would give anything to change this fickle-minded heart
    That loves fake shiny things
    Now I'm fucked up and I'm missing you
    He'll never be like you

    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you
    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you

    How do I make you wanna stay?
    Hate sleeping on my own, missing the way you taste
    Now I'm fucked up and I'm missing you
    He'll never be like you
    Stop looking at me with those eyes
    Like I could disappear and you wouldn't care why
    Now I'm fucked up and I'm missing you
    He'll never be like you

    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you
    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you

    I'm falling on my knees
    Forgive me, I'm a fucking fool
    I'm begging, darling, please
    Absolve me of my sins, won't you?
    Oh, I'm falling on my knees
    Forgive me, I'm a fucking fool
    I'm begging, darling, please
    Absolve me of my sins, won't you?

    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you
    I'm only human, can't you see?
    I made, I made a mistake
    Please just look me in my face
    Tell me everything's okay
    'Cause I got it
    Ooh, he'll never be like you

    Baby, baby please believe me
    Come on, take it easy
    Please don't ever leave me
    Ooh, he'll never be like you Writer/s: Alessia Patrizia De Gasperis-Brigante, Geoffrey Patrick Earley, Harley Edward Streten
