I never meant to cause you trouble or pain

I never meant to cause you harm

Words they're like diamonds and they'll slit your throat without trying

I never signed my self away

But I've changed and I can never be the same

As that wretch that you rescued from the rain

I was lost, I've paid you all my costs

And the score is clear, I'm done my dear

I never meant to cause you discord or strain

I never meant to drive your mind insane

I fed you love but the love dried up

I never signed my soul away

Yes, I've changed and I can never be the same

As that wretch that you salvaged from the rain

I was lost but now I've got my voice

I paid my dues up, I'm done my dear

I know I've changed and I can never be the same

I played my cards, I'm on my way

I know that I can never be the same

I've paid my dues, I'm on my way
