Rejection tars the roads where I have been
Still I'm holdin' on to the same dream
Came through fire and the pourin' rain
To be told that I'm the one to blame Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
Didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood)
Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
No, no, didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood) Chasin' shadows and they'll never know
The truth about us and their fears will grow
Only we know what has not been told
We'll meet in secret in the fields of gold Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
I didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood)
Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
I didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood) So now they come to see me cry
Too late now, the well's run dry
I know they think, I'm puttin' chains on you
Let the fools believe, it's what they wanna do Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
Didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood)
Misunderstood
(Never thought that I would)
I didn't know that I could be
(Misunderstood) I didn't know, I didn't know that I could
I didn't know, I didn't know that I would
I didn't know, I didn't know that I could
I didn't know, I didn't know that I would I didn't know, I didn't know that I could
I didn't know, I didn't know that I would
I didn't know, I didn't know that I could
I didn't know, I didn't know that I would
