Misunderstood

Under the surface
We’re all the same
Searching for purpose
Hiding from shame
I got your letter
It tells me who’s to blame
And do you feel better
Causing me pain, so much pain
And I’m sorry I’m not
All the things that you want
All the things that you thought
I would be
I guess I’m not like you
Not something you’re used to
Maybe something brand new
You’ve never seen
Wish I could read your mind
Be part of your kind
I would be if I could
Misunderstood
Wish I could somehow be
All that you want from me
But now I’m gone for good
You know I can’t help it
I get too attached
But I take every flower I gave you
And know that I made you a song that I sang you
I wish I could take them back, take them back
And I’m sorry I’m not
All the things that you want
All the things that you thought
I would be
I guess I’m not like you
Not something you’re used to
Maybe something brand new
You’ve never seen
Wish I could read your mind
Be part of your kind
I would be if I could
Misunderstood
Wish I could somehow be
All that you want from me
But now I’m gone for good
Misunderstood
I’m sorry I’m not
All the things that you want
All the things that you thought
I would be
I guess I’m not like you
Not something you’re used to
Maybe something brand new
You’ve never seen
I’m so sorry
Wish I could read your mind
Be part of your kind
I would be if I could
Misunderstood
Wish I could somehow be
All that you want from me
(I'm so sorry)
But now I’m gone for good
Misunderstood
I’m sorry I’m not
All the things that you want
All the things that you thought
I would be
I guess I’m not like you
Not something you’re used to
Maybe something brand new
You’ve never seen
Wish I could read your mind
Be part of your kind
I would be if I could
Misunderstood
Wish I could somehow be
All that you want from me
But now I’m gone for good
Misunderstood
Under the surface
We’re all the same
