The Beautiful Letdown
It was a beautiful letdown
When I crashed and burned
When I found myself alone
Unknown and hurt
It was a beautiful letdown
The day I knew, that all the riches
This world had to offer me
Would never do
In a world full of bitter pain
Bitter doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in
Fit in, until I found out
Well I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong
It was a beautiful letdown
When you found me here
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear
I'll be a beautiful letdown
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free
We're still chasing our tails
In the rising sun
In our dark water planet still spinning
In a direction no one wins and no one's won
See, I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
Well, I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
I will carry a cross with a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong
I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
No, I don't belong here
I don't belong
I'm gonna set side and set sail
For the kingdom come, kingdom come
Your kingdom come
(I don't belong)
Won't you let me down, yeah?
(I don't belong)
Let my foolish pride forever let me down
Easy living, you're not much like the name
Easy dying, you look just about the same
Would you please take me off your list
Easy living, please c'mon and let me down
We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the dropouts
The losers, the sinners, the failures, and the fools
What a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune, yeah
I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
No, I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
Well, I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
Feels like I don't belong here, yeah
(I don't belong)
I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
Feels like I don't belong here
(I don't belong)
No, I don't belong
(I don't belong, I don't belong)
Won't you let me down?
(I don't belong)
C'mon and let me down
(I don't belong)
You always let me down
(I don't belong)
So glad that I'm let down, yeah
(I don't belong)
C'mon and let me down
(I don't belong)
'Cause I don't belong here
Oh please, won't you let me down?
