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

And bitter doubts

I was trying so hard to fit in

Fit in, until I found out



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

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

Won't you let me down, yeah

Let my foolish pride forever let me down



Ah, 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
