A/N: I love this song

Disclaimer: I don't own the Avengers or Manafest's amazing song "Human"


Hey, I never said I was an angel, no

I never said I wouldn't break down, yeah

Beside myself, living in a cold cell

Don't shut me out

Tony Stark sat on his bed. His life was falling apart. Sure he was a billionaire. Sure he was Iron Man. But everything was crashing down. After the New York experience he just didn't know if he could protect Pepper any more. If he had died then she would be left alone. With nothing but all of his money. That money would do nothing to comfort her. He wasn't sure if he could do it anymore. For the first time in Anthony Stark's life he was truly broken.

Yeah, you look at me like I'm a stranger

Yeah, you make me feel like I betrayed you

Don't leave me stranded,

As I reach out my hand

Clint was having a hard time getting over the Loki experience. He had put up a pretty good front though. Everyone believed it. Almost everyone that is. There was one person that didn't. Natasha Romanoff. She was a smart woman. They had been through so much together. She knew he was hurting. She knew he couldn't get over what he had done under Loki's control. And she was right. He shuddered as he wondered what would have happened if Loki had made him kill her. Clint knew without a doubt that he wouldn't be able to stand that. If he had killed Natasha he would have killed himself.

'Cause I wear my heart on my sleeve

If you cut me I'll bleed

I know I cannot erase

Every mistake that I've made

Natasha Romanoff was trying to be there for her teammates. But she too was taking all of this pretty roughly. Loki had killed Phil Coulson. Phil had taken her under his wing when she first came to S.H.I.E.L.D. He was the one who had helped Clint teach her to do right. But now he was gone from her life. She had a lot of red on her ledger. But Phil had been the sacrifice that had taken that red away.

I never said I was an angel, no

I never said I wouldn't break down

But life keeps on moving

By now you should know

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

Bruce Banner was the only one in the Avengers that had actually lived a normal human life before becoming part of it. Now he was working with Tony in his house. He saw his friend breaking. He really did. But he couldn't do anything about it because you know what? He was only human.

Hey, got any grace for a failure?

'Cause I'm feeling like I failed you

Yeah, I lashed out, digging up my past

O, I know let you down, yeah

O, I'm still fighting for the future

Yeah, 'cause I never wanna lose you

Loki may have been the villain in the entire thing but as he sat in a prison cell in Asgard he broke down. He had let Thor down. He had let Odin down. He had let Frigga down. His family. His real family. The only family he had ever known. He had let them down. And now he deeply regretted it.

I'll keep on climbing

If you're by my side

'Cause I wear my heart on my sleeve

If you cut me I'll bleed

I know I cannot erase

Every mistake that I've made

Steve Rogers may be Captain America but he was still human. He sat on his couch two weeks after New York City. His heart felt heavy. He missed Peggy. He would give almost anything to hold her in his arms and tell her he loved her. He missed everything about his time. Even Howard Stark. Tony just wasn't the same. He had went back to the place where he had entered with Peggy to become the super soldier. It was only an empty shop now. Steve had went to the back. The secret entrance was sealed shut. He went back into the room. He saw places in the wall where shots had hit the wooden walls. He had went to the pier where he had captured that German spy. He sat down and cried. He wanted his life back. Because really, he was only human.

I never said I was an angel, no

I never said I wouldn't break down

But life keeps on moving

By now you should know

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I know I'm breaking your heart

Every storm that tears us apart

I know I'm to blame for all the damage

I've done

Thor may be a god but he had the same emotions as a human. He felt sadness. His brother was sitting in a jail cell in Asgard. After bringing his there and staying for a while Thor had come back to Midgard. He was living there now. But he couldn't help but wish his brother had made a different decision. That way maybe he could be married to Jane and not sitting in an apartment in NYC mourning the imprisonment of his brother and best friend.

But you know that I'm ready to take the fall

I never said I was angel

I never said I wouldn't break down

'Cause I wear my heart on my sleeve

If you cut me I'll bleed

I know I cannot erase

Every mistake that I've made

I never said I was an angel, no

I never said I wouldn't break down

But life keeps on moving

By now you should know

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I'm only human

Hey, hey, hey

I'm only human

All of the Avengers had regrets. All of them felt broken. But they would work through it. Together they would be strong. Because that's what a team was. After all, they were only human.
