Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Waiting in the calm of desolation Wanting to break from this circle of confusion Sleeping in the depths of isolation Trying to wake from this daydream of illusion [Chorus] How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me? How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me? How can I know so many, never really knowing anyone? If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood [Verse 2] It challenges the essence of my soul And leaves me in a state of disconnection As I navigate the maze of self-control Playing a lion being led to a cage I turn from a thief to a beggar From a god to 'God save me' [Chorus] How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me? How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me? How can I know so many, never really knowing anyone? If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood Misunderstood [Reversed Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Playing a lion being led to a cage I turn from surreal to seclusion From love to disdain From belief to delusion From a thief to a beggar From a god to 'God save me' [Chorus] How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me? How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me? How can I know so many, never really knowing anyone? If I seem superhuman, I have been misunderstood Misunderstood [Instrumental Outro]
