Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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–

[Verse 2]

Cold to you, I'm sorry 'bout all the lies

Maybe in a different light

You can see me stand on my own again 'cause now I can see

You are the antidote that got me by

Something strong, like a drug that got me

High

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

I never meant to be so cold

[Bridge]

I never really wanted you to see

The screwed-up side 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 never meant to be so cold

[Chorus]

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
