I can barely see you, I can barely feel you
You're fading like the dirt on my TV
I'm feeling kind of scared 'cause I never get to talk
But there's really nothing good for me to say

You're right to stay away, you're dangerous to me
You push so cleverly just like no others
You don't like other girls and you care about your friends
But you'd rather have been born as one of your brothers

Suddenly I am the wrong
Suddenly I can't be strong
Suddenly I am the man
I never meant to be

I barely know your name, I barely know your name
Even though we have been living here for years
I'd really like to talk but they took away my tongue
And replaced it with a thousand lonely tears

I'm sorry about your dad, I wish he wasn't mean
I really wish I didn't remind you of him
I try my very best but the Devil owns my mind
And I haven't had the chance to show you who I am

Suddenly I am the wrong
Suddenly I can't be strong
Suddenly I am the man
I never meant to be

Won't you have another cup of tea?
I really have enjoyed our time together
And when I get on back to the prison
Will you wait for me till I return, till I return
Till I return so suddenly

Suddenly I am the wrong
Suddenly I can't be strong
Suddenly I am the man
I never meant to be, to be, to be

Suddenly I am the wrong
Suddenly I can't be strong
Suddenly I am the man
Never meant to be
