0:33It was a beautiful letdown
0:36When I crashed and burned
0:40When I found myself alone
0:43Unknown and hurt
0:46It was a beautiful letdown
0:50The day I knew
0:54That all the riches this world had to offer me
0:58Would never do
1:01In a world full of bitter pain
1:04And bitter doubts
1:07I was trying so hard to fit in
1:10Fit in until I found out
1:14I don't belong here (I don't belong)
1:18I don't belong here (I don't belong)
1:20I will carry a cross and a song
1:24Where I don't belong
1:26I don't belong
1:40It was a beautiful letdown
1:43When You found me here
1:48Yeah for once in a rare blue moon
1:51I see everything clear
1:53I'll be a beautiful letdown
1:57That's what I'll forever be
2:01And though it may cost my soul
2:05I'll sing for free
2:08We're still chasing our tails
2:10In the rising sun
2:15In our dark water planet still spinning
2:17In a direction no one wins
2:19No one's won
2:21See I don't belong here (I don't belong)
2:24Well I don't belong here I don't belong
2:28I will carry a cross
2:30With a song where I don't belong
2:33I don't belong
2:35I don't belong here (I don't belong)
2:38No I don't belong here I don't belong
2:41I'm gonna set side
2:43And set sail
2:44For the kingdom come kingdom come
2:47Your kingdom come
2:51Won't you let me down yeah
2:54Let my foolish pride forever let me down
3:02Ah Easy living you're not much like the name
3:10Easy dying you look just about the same
3:15Would you please take me off your list
3:20Easy living please c'mon and let me down
3:31We are a beautiful letdown
3:35Painfully uncool
3:38The church of the dropouts
3:40The losers the sinners the failures and the fools
3:44What a beautiful letdown
3:48Are we salt in the wound
3:52Hey let us sing one true tune
3:58I don't belong here (I don't belong)
4:01I don't belong here (I don't belong)
4:06I don't belong here (I don't belong)
4:08It feels like I don't belong here yeah
4:12I don't belong here (I don't belong)
4:15It goes like I don't belong here
4:17I don't belong (I don't belong)
4:25Won't you let me down (I don't belong)
4:29C'mon and let me down (I don't belong)
4:31You always let me down (I don't belong)
4:35So glad that I'm let down (I don't belong)
4:41C'mon and let me down (I don't belong)
4:45'Cause I don't belong here
4:48Won't you let me down
4:50END
