[Verse 1]
Stitched-up jacket
Patches torn and burned
Laughing at the sermon
While the holy candles churn
Boot prints on the altar
Ink under my skin
They said I don’t belong here
Guess that’s where we begin
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar a secret map
Every crack a crown
They tried to break our backs
We never bowed down
[Chorus]
We are the misfits
Cast from the fire
Built out of heartbreak
Wired with desire
Sing for the outlaws
Lonely and loud
Raise up your broken hands
This is our crowd
We are the misfits
Sharpened by pain
Out in the thunder
Born of the rain
Nobody’s heroes
Cursed and adored
Bleeding together
Misfits of war
[Verse 2]
Steel-toe thunder
Rattling the gate
Turned our darkest memories
Into sharpened plates
Eyes like loaded crossbows
Hearts that never heal
We walk the edge of midnight
Grinding rust to steel
[Pre-Chorus]
Every “no” a battle cry
Every fall a tale
They branded us with shame
We forged it into mail
[Chorus]
We are the misfits
Cast from the fire
Built out of heartbreak
Wired with desire
Sing for the outlaws
Lonely and loud
Raise up your broken hands
This is our crowd
We are the misfits
Sharpened by pain
Out in the thunder
Born of the rain
Nobody’s heroes
Cursed and adored
Bleeding together
Misfits of war
[Bridge]
Who will march for the broken?
Who will name the unnamed?
We carve our oaths in our own skin
Set the night aflame (oh yeah)
If the gates stay locked forever
We’ll just tear the sky in two
If the world won’t have our faces
We’ll paint it in our hues
[Chorus]
We are the misfits
Cast from the fire
Built out of heartbreak
Wired with desire
Sing for the outlaws
Lonely and loud
Raise up your broken hands
This is our crowd
We are the misfits
Sharpened by pain
Out in the thunder
Born of the rain
Nobody’s heroes
Cursed and adored
Bleeding together
Misfits of war
