I'm sorry but you got me wrong: I wasn't born to love you And I wasn't born to tear your world apart. You cast me in that role to make your one-act life feel full And I am sorry that I know I wasn't born to play that part. And now you're left alone thinking you see the curtains closing. The stage lights overhead are flickering And I'm there in the chair without a care just gently dozing, The same old boy, the same new man that I have always been. I'm sorry that I broke your heart; I wasn't meant to hold it. It is fragile and I dropped it on that day. The pieces filled the room with that resounding static boom And they are cutting through my shoes as I am trying to walk away. And yes, it meant a lot; I wouldn't try to say it didn't So get those dirty words out of your mouth. What I'm trying to say is things have changed and they are different And I don't know the way either but I am leaving now.
