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 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's sewn She lives lie to lie (Chorus) Strangled, caged, left alone Doin' time in a broken home Feelin' left to die I'm a product of your troubled ways You made me what I am today Now you're askin' why Oh, life it's misunderstood me So I close my eyes And dream of better days Oh, life it's misunderstood me Life's not always fair or so they say Restless soul deep inside Searches 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 these times Life, it's misunderstood me And I know, know you've been there too Time lets a restless soul fade away Life's not always fair Life's not always fair Or so they say Yeah, life it's misunderstood me So I close my eyes And dream of a better day Oh, life it's misunderstood me Life's not always fair Life's not always fair Or so they say Little boy with hopeful eyes Daddy's comin' home tonight So don't you cry
