Misunderstood Lyrics

The song Misunderstood is performed by Dream Theater in the album named Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence in the year 2002 .



Waiting 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
