Misunderstood

Little old man contemplates

Suicide twice a day

Life's passed him by

Little old woman scared and blind

Left alone in desperate times

Life's passed her by

Oh life it's misunderstood them

So they close their eyes

And dream of better days

Oh life it's misunderstood yeah

Life's not always fair or so they say

Little boy with vacant eyes

Daddy won't be home tonight

And he don't know why

His mother she sits alone

Tangled in the web she's sewn

She lives lie to lie

Strangled, caged, left alone

Doin' time in a broken home

Feelin' left to die

I'm a product of your troubled ways

You made me what I am today

Now you're askin' why

Oh, life it's misunderstood me

So I close my eyes

And dream of better days

Oh, life it's misunderstood me

Life's not always fair or so they say

Restless soul deep inside

Searches for some piece of mind

Livin' just to die

I'm an angry man I always have

Had to fight to survive my past

Sign of these times

Life, it's misunderstood me

And I know, know you've been there too

Time lets a restless soul fade away

Life's not always fair

Life's not always fair

Or so they say

Yeah, life it's misunderstood me

So I close my eyes

And dream of a better day

Oh, life it's misunderstood me

Life's not always fair

Life's not always fair

Or so they say

Little boy with hopeful eyes

Daddy's comin' home tonight

So don't you cry
