They christen you a lost cause

But they ain't fighting your wars

All you need's a little love

Your an angel in the making

Maybe you're misunderstood.

Found your faith and lost it

A prayer without a prophet

Waiting for a sign from above

But you're nothing short of saintly

Maybe you're misunderstood.

There ain't a mountain you can't climb

There's just the dream between the fate that we find

Gotta keep a diamond in your mind

When you're tied up in your history

And nothing ever seems to be enough

And you're misunderstood.

Raised inside the shadows

Nothing but regret grows

Waiting on the great and good

There's a world there for the taking

Maybe you're misunderstood.

Kill 'em all with kindness

Don't let the bastards grind us

Down, walk with your head up

You're an angel in the making

Yeah you're just misunderstood.

There ain't a mountain you can't climb

There's just the dream between the fate that we find

Gotta keep a diamond in your mind

When you're tied up in your history

And nothing ever seems to be enough

And you're misunderstood.

There ain't a mountain you can't climb

There's just the dream between the fate that we find

Gotta keep a diamond in your mind

When you're tied up in your history

And nothing ever seems to be enough

And you're misunderstood.
