Lyrics

[Verse 1] Little old man contemplates suicide twice a day Life's passed him by Little old woman, scared and blind, left alone in desperate times Life's passed her by [Chorus] Oh, life, it's misunderstood them So they close their eyes and dream of better days Oh, life, it's misunderstood, yeah Life's not always fair, or so they say [Verse 2] Little boy with vacant eyes, Daddy won't be home tonight And he don't know why His mother, she sits alone, tangled in the web she'd sewn She lives lie to lie [Chorus] Oh, life, it's misunderstood them So they close their eyes and dream of better days Oh, yeah Oh, life, it's misunderstood them Life's not always fair, or so they say [Instrumental Break] Oh [Verse 3] Strangled, caged, left alone, doin' time in a broken home Feeling left to die I'm a product of your troubled ways, you made me what I am today Now you're asking why [Chorus] Oh, life's misunderstood me So I close my eyes and dream of better days, yeah yeah Ooh, life's misunderstood me, yeah Life's not always fair Life's not always fair, or so they say Mh [Verse 4] Restless soul, deep inside I'm searchin' for some piece of mind Livin' just to die I'm an angry man, I always have had to fight to survive my past Sign of those times [Chorus] Life, it's misunderstood me And I know you know that you've been there too, oh Time lets a restless soul fade away Life's not always fair Life's not always fair, or so they say [Guitar Solo] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey [Chorus] Yeah, life, it's misunderstood me (Misunderstood me) So I close my eyes and dream of a better day Oh (Oh), life's misunderstood me Life's not always fair Life's not always fair, or so they say, yeah [Outro] Little boy with hopeful eyes, Daddy's coming home tonight So don't you cry (So don't you cry) So don't you cry (So don't you cry)
