misunderstood
It was hard to get along when I was still in school I never meant to do no wrong but I broke all the rules An' I was prone to non-conformin', but what harm did I do? I could see the world was crazy an' I was crazy too Misunderstood with no one I could tell Misunderstood by people I know well Then I thought when I joined a band that I would finally fit We tried to stand for somethin' good an' people made fun of it I stuck it out as long as I could but I knew it was time to go Then I was back out on the street feeling really low Misunderstood with no one I could tell Misunderstood by people I know well Misunderstood an' nothin' seems to help Misunderstood but I can't be someone else I try to say where I belong an' live the way I should But everything just turns out wrong an' I'm always misunderstood Wake up, Ricky solo! I hate the way people look at me they thing that I'm no good Maybe someday I'll make them see that I'm only misunderstood It wasn't easy stayin' strong when I was on my own It got me nuts when I was young now I'm almost grown If I can have ya by my side it'd be so good for me As long as you can understand then I will never be Misunderstood with no one I could tell Misunderstood by people I know well Misunderstood an' nothin' seems to help Misunderstood but I can't be someone else
