Yeah it’s been a long night and the mirror’s telling me to go home
But it’s been a long time since I felt this good on my own
A lot of years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes
Forever, and ever, no more
The midnight sky is the road I’m taking
Head high up in the clouds
Ohhhh
I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
Fire in my lungs can’t bite the devil on my tongue, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
See my lips, on her mouth, everybody’s talking now baby
Ohh, you know it’s true, yeahh
That I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
Loved by you….
La la la la la
She got her hair pulled back cause the sweat’s dripping off of her face
Said it ain’t so bad if I wanna make a couple mistakes
You should know right now that I never stay put in one place
Forever, and ever, no more
The midnight sky is the road I’m taking
Head high up in the clouds
Ohhhh
I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
Fire in my lungs can’t bite the devil on my tongue, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
See my lips, on her mouth, everybody’s talking now baby
Ohh, you know it’s true, yeahhh
That I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
By you….
Ohhh
I don’t hide, blurry eyes like you
Like you
I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you
Fire in my lungs can’t bite the devil on my tongue, you know
I don’t need to be loved by you
See his hands round my waist, thought you’d never be replaced baby
Ohh you know it’s true, yeah
That I was born to run I don’t belong to anyone, oh no
I don’t need to be loved by you

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Like the brutal morning sun
It dawns on me, what have I done?
Saying sorry aint as good as saying why
But it buys me a little more time
Lost in the moment for the second time
Each fucking doubt I make, unleash a cry
Im just pathetic, thats the reason why
In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why
[Chorus]
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Dont always think before I do
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Thats the only answer Ive got for you
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Not often proud of what I choose
Im a human, woman
A greater force I answer to
[Verse 2]
Once again, as it takes a hold
I am aware Im not in control
You see, I have a conscience and its never fooled
But its prone to be overruled
You wanna know why I always think I’m right?
(Why?) You never accept defeat and let it slide
(Why?) I have no voice if I don’t speak my mind
(Why?) My weakness is the source of all my pride
Ill tell you why
[Chorus]
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Dont always think before I do
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Thats the only answer Ive got for you
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Ill never be as strong as you
Im a human, human
A greater force I answer to
