Dream Theater - Misunderstood lyrics

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

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

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'

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

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'

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
