[Intro]
All my life felt out of place
And so misunderstood
It seemed to me that I might be
Defective under the hood
[Instrumental]
[Verse1]
When I think I got it right
I find out I saw it wrong
It's been this way, since a tyke
Its sorta like that same old song
Comes to play some random time
And suddenly I've crossed a line
It's the story of my life
And been that way all along
[Instrumental]
[Break]
[Verse2]
When I think I got it wrong
I never feel alright
It's the sorta thing that keeps me up at night
Led to problems that the bottle made much worse
Than any lonely feeling
I felt throughout my life
It made it hard to love myself or anybody else
It seemed sorrow was my curse
[Bridge]
There were happy days
But those rainy days
Seemed to beat me down
I cried many times
Torn up inside
The land of lost and found
[Chorus]
Then you came along
And you opened up your hands
You helped me put the bottle down
And accept the man I am
There's so much more to say to you
To help you understand
How you pieced me back together
And made me a better man
[Instrumental]
[Verse3]
I was told I was no good
From different people time to time
Even though I knew the truth
Their demeaning words burnt in my mind
And I started to internalize
The things that cut me down to size
I saw myself through other's eyes
It's no wonder I couldn't find
[Bridge2]
Many happy days
As those rainy days
Seemed to beat me down
I tried many times
To change inside
The land of lost and found
[Build]
[Counter Chorus]
Then you came along
And you opened up your hands
You helped me put the bottle down
And accept the man I am
There's much more time I want to spend with you
To help you understand
How you pieced me back together
And made me a better man
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
