[Verse 1]
Sick and tired of seekin' straight lines
’Cause that's a destination in your imagination
You're just like a shadow in the brake lights
Perception is as real as it gets

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The 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 your head

[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
