[Verse 1]
Take a second, take a breath
Take a break from all the pressure
You got problems, we all do
But that's just part of the adventure
Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh...

[Pre-Chorus]
What if mistakes not such a bad thing
What if they make you who you are
What is the story with no struggle
You can see the stars without the dark

[Chorus 1]
Maybe we could never be a perfect people
But maybe that's ok
Maybe we could never be oh so flawless
In every single way
Maybe that's what makes us human
That's what makes us [feel]
And maybe that's what makes us human
Know that grace is real

[Verse 2]
You've been trying, trying so hard
But you don't gotta be the hero (hero)
You got issues, we all do
Don't be afraid to let go
Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh...

[Pre-Chorus]
What if mistakes not such a bad thing
What if they make you who you are
What is the story with no struggle
You can see the stars without the dark

[Chorus 1]
Maybe we could never be a perfect people
But maybe that's ok
Maybe we could never be [oh so] flawless
In every single way
Maybe that's what makes us human
That's what makes us feel
And maybe that's what makes us human
Know that grace is real

[Bridge]
People telling us to dress like this
To talk like this, so perfect like this
But nobody can do it
You be you, I'll be me
We'll sing our harmonies, together like a duet
Sometimes we need room to be human
We 're not angels after all
It's time we see right through the illusions
We're just human after all

[Post-Bridge]
Maybe we could never be a perfect (never be perfect)
Maybe we could never be a flawless (never be flawless)

[Chorus 2]
Maybe we could never be a perfect people
But maybe that's ok (maybe that's ok)
Maybe we could never be oh so flawless
In every single way (in every single way)
Maybe that's what makes us human
That's what makes us feel (that's what makes us feel)
And maybe that's what makes us human
Know that grace is real
What if all our tears
And our fears, and our flaws
Are beautiful things
'Cause everything that makes us human
Brings us to our knees
