Switchfoot - Beautiful Let Down Lyrics

Hey yeah

It was a beautiful letdown
When I crashed and burned
When I found myself alone
Unknown and hurt

It was a beautiful letdown
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 doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in
Until I found out

That I don't belong here
I don't belong here
I will carry a cross and a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong

It was a beautiful letdown
When you found me here
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear

I'll be a beautiful letdown
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free

We're still chasing our tails in the rising sun
In our dark water planet still spinning
In a direction no one wins, no one's won

See, I don't belong here
Well, I don't belong here
I will carry across with a song
Where I don't belong, I don't belong

I don't belong here
Well, I don't belong here
I'm gonna set sight and set sail
For the kingdom come, kingdom come

Your kingdom come
Won't you let me down, yeah
Let my foolish proud
Forever let me down

Ah, easy living you're not much like the name
Easy dying, you look just about the same
Would you please take me off your list?
Easy living, please c'mon and let me down

We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the dropouts
And losers and sinners and failures and the fools

What a beautiful let down
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune, hey yeah

I don't belong here
No, I don't belong here
No, I don't belong here
It feels like I don't belong here, yeah

No, I don't belong here
It goes like I don't belong here
Yo, I don't belong

Won't you let me down?
C'mon and let me down
You always let me down
So glad that I'm letdown, hey

C'mon and let me down
'Cause I don't belong here
Please, won't you let me down
