BORN TO BE THIS WAY Lyrics

I'm walking down the Promenade

With my head so clouded by thoughts

Of where I should go now

I'm walking down the Pier alone

I really wish I was at home

But growing up is just another chore

Don't freak out darling, or cry for me

I'll be home real soon

But if I'm gone until after dawn

Then know I'm gone for good

Oh why don't they like

When I'm myself when people are nearby

Oh why do I still try

This place just isn't meant for freaks like me

I'm born to be this way

The streets are filled with cracks so deep

You might as well have two left feet

Because you won't walk so good

A man just bought his daughter's dress

He just buried his new mistress

Right under Hollywood

Don't freak out darling, or cry for me

I'll be home real soon

But if I'm gone until after dawn

Then know I'm gone for good

Oh why don't they like

When I'm myself when people are nearby

Oh why do I still try

This place just isn't meant for freaks like me

Born and raised

Don't freak out darling, or cry for me

I'll be home real soon

But if I'm gone until after dawn

Then know I'm gone for good

Oh why don't they like

When I'm myself when people are nearby

Oh why do I still try

This place just isn't meant for freaks like me

I'm born to be this way
