[Verse 1]

Sick and tired of seekin' straight lines

’Cause that's the destination in your imagination

You're just like a shadow in the brake lights

Perception is as real as it gets

[Pre-Chorus 1]

This silver screen inside our hands

As locked us in a high school dance

And here we are, the ones who stand

With our backs to the wall

[Chorus]

They told us we were misfits

Only on the outside lookin’ in

We know that the truth is

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this

They told us we were misfits

Meant to be like this

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this

[Verse 2]

All this smoke but you can cut through

No one like another, we're all inventin' colors

Maybe I'll be me and you can be you

Perfection only lives in our heads

[Pre-Chorus 2]

The hesitation haunts our hearts

We're losin' track of who we are

Like comets chasin' shooting stars

And it's only because

[Chorus]

They told us we were misfits

Only on the outside lookin’ in

We know that the truth is

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this

They told us we were misfits

Meant to be like this

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this

[Chorus]

They told us we were misfits

Only on the outside lookin’ in

We know that the truth is

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this

They told us we were misfits

Meant to be like this

We were really meant to be, meant to be like this
