Switchfoot - Beautiful Letdown lyrics

rate me

It was a beautiful let down

When I crashed and burned

When I found myself alone unknown and hurt

It was a beautiful let down

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 doubt

I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in,

Until I found out

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong

But I don't belong

It was a beautiful let down

When you found me here

Yeah for once in a rare blue moon I see everything clear

I'll be a beautiful let down

That's what I'll forever be

And though it may cost my soul

I'll sing for free

We're still chasin our tails and the rising sun

And our dark water planet's

Still spinning in a race

Where no one wins and no one's one

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come

I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong

But i don't belong

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

Kingdom come

Your kingdom come

Won't you let me down yeah

Let my foolish pride

Forever let me down

Easy living, not much like your name

Easy dying, you look just about the same

Won't you please take me off your list

Easy living please come on and let me down

We are a beautiful let down,

Painfully uncool,

The church of the dropouts

The losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools

Oh what a beautiful let down

Are we salt in the wound

Let us sing one true tune

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

I don't belong here

Feels like I don't belong here

Let me down

Let me down

Feels like I'm let down

Let me down.

Cuz I don't belong here

Please

Won't you let me down?
