Misunderstood (Edited Version)
Dream Theater
Waiting
In the calm of desolation
Wanting to break
From this circle of confusion
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
<interlude DF>
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
