I want love, but it's impossible A man like me, so irresponsible
I want love, but it's impossible A man like me, so irresponsible A man like me is dead in places Other men feel liberated
I can't love, shot full of holes Don't feel nothing, I just feel cold Don't feel nothing, just old scars Toughening up around my heart
[chorus] But I want love, just a different kind I want love, won't break me down Won't brick me up, won't fence me in I want a love, that don't mean a thing That's the love I want, I want love
I want love on my own terms After everything I've ever learned Me, I carry too much baggage Oh man I've seen so much traffic
[repeat chorus]
So bring it on, I've been bruised Don't give me love this clean and smooth I'm ready for the rougher stuff No sweet romance, I've had enough
A man like me is dead in places Other men feel liberated
