Built This Way

Did you ever feel like you wanna be
Someone else for just one day
Did you ever feel like you wanna
See through another pair of eyes
Did you ever think I'm a wannabe with
Anyone else just one day,
Did you ever you really think of me when I walked away?
You look, you don't sound apologetic
You smoke your subjects at my eyes, like you think
You know where you think you'll find, you think you'll figure me out tonight
But you'll never know what I won't share
Cause I don't care and I don't care
You think you'll figure me out tonight
But I don't care
And I wonder, if I'm just built this way
Cause every man that I know, makes me feel like'I'm too plain'
When it's over and my selfish ways
Go back to start again, go back to start again
Did you ever feel like you should have said
Something smarter at that time
Did you ever feel like you should have kept
In all to yourself
Did you ever think it might be your fault
And never promise anymore
Did you ever think it might not be me
Now it was always me?
You look, you don't sound apologetic
You smoke your subjects at my eyes, like you think
You know where you think you'll find, you think you'll figure me out tonight
But you'll never know what I won't share
Cause I don't care and I don't care
You think you'll figure me out tonight
But I don't care
And I wonder, if I'm just built this way
Cause every man that I know, makes me feel like'I'm too plain'
When it's over and my selfish ways
Go back to start again
And I wonder, if I'm just built this way
Cause every man that I know, makes me feel like'I'm too plain'
When it's over and my selfish ways
Go back to start again, go back to start again
You look, you don't sound apologetic
You smoke your subjects at my eyes, like you think
You know where you think you'll find, you think you'll figure me out tonight
But you'll never know what I won't share
Cause I don't care and I don't care
You think you'll figure me out tonight
But I don't care
And I wonder, if I'm just built this way
Cause every man that I know, makes me feel like'I'm too plain'
When it's over and my selfish ways
Go back to start again
And I wonder, if I'm just built this way
Cause every man that I know, makes me feel like'I'm too plain'
When it's over and my selfish ways
Go back to start again, go back to start again
Go back to start again
