Like you said to me
Right before the end
The chaos that you breathe
Is one long cruel caress

What is inside, that makes
Everything rotten
You're just a child
Who waits
To shut down their emotions

I didn't mean to hurt you
But I was born this way
I didn't mean to hurt you
Over again
All over again

I didn't mean to hurt you
One look at your face
I know it's too late
I didn't mean to hurt you
Over again
All over again

Somewhere I'm afraid
Of those who feel the sun
The heat of their embrace
Will somehow come undone

I know it's hard, this time
But we can't trade places
Truth is we laughed, and cried
But it's never going to be the same

I didn't mean to hurt you
But I was born this way
I didn't mean to hurt you
Over again
All over again

I didn't mean to hurt you
One look at your face
I know it's too late
I didn't mean to hurt you
Over again
All over again

(Ooh
I didn't mean to hurt you
Ooh
I need you, to let me free...)
