Lyrics:

Looking back at me, I see that I never really got it right
I never stopped to think of you
I'm always wrapped up in things I cannot win

You are the antidote that gets me by
Something strong like a drug that gets me high

What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold

To you, I'm sorry about all the lies
Maybe in a different light you could see me stand on my own again

'Cause now I can see you were the antidote that got me by
Something strong like a drug that got me high

What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold

I never meant to be so cold

I never really wanted you to see
The screwed upside of me that I keep
Locked inside of me so deep
It always seems to get to me
I never really wanted you to go
So many things you should have known
I guess for me there's just no hope
I've never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am (is I'm sorry for the way I am)

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold

What I really meant to say is I'm sorry for the way I am (is I'm sorry for the way I am)

I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
