Human Lyrics

Artist: The Pretenders
Album: Viva El Amour

I play a good game
But not as good as you
I can be a little cold
But you can be so cruel
I'm not made of brick
I'm not made of stone
But I had you fooled enough to take me on
If love was a war
It's you who has won
While I was confessing it
You held your tongue
Now the damage is done

Well there's blood in these veins
and I cry when in pain
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive
Make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside

I thought you'd come through
I thought you'd come clean
You were the best thing, I should never have seen
But you go to extremes
You push me too far
Then you keep going til you break my heart
Yeah, you break my heart

See I bleed and I bruise
Oh, but what's it to you
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive
Make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside
I crash and I burn
Maybe someday you'll learn
I'm only human on the inside
I stumble I fall
Baby, under it all
I'm only human on the inside

I think this is the best song ever written and sung by Chrissie.

@Nick G - This song wasn't written by Chrissie Hynde and was only performed by the Pretenders as a cover. It was originally written and performed by an Australian band called the Divinyls, whose lead singer is coincidentally another Chrissie - Chrissie Amphlett.
