- Misunderstood LyricsWaiting in the calm of desolation
Wanting to break from this circle of confusion
Sleeping in the depths of isolation
Trying to wake from this daydream of illusion
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood
It challenges the essence of my soul
And leaves me in a state of disconnection
As I navigate the maze of self control playing a lion being led to a cage
I turn from a thief to a beggar, from a God to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood, misunderstood
Playing a lion, being led to a cage I turn from surreal to seclusion
From love to disdain, from belief to delusion
From a thief to a beggar, from a God to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood, misunderstood
Wanting to break from this circle of confusion
Sleeping in the depths of isolation
Trying to wake from this daydream of illusion
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood
It challenges the essence of my soul
And leaves me in a state of disconnection
As I navigate the maze of self control playing a lion being led to a cage
I turn from a thief to a beggar, from a God to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood, misunderstood
Playing a lion, being led to a cage I turn from surreal to seclusion
From love to disdain, from belief to delusion
From a thief to a beggar, from a God to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood, misunderstood
