In his mind, he's been to hell and back again
Left a trail of broken dreams
The smile you wear just hides your fear

On the edge of the night
You can't tell what's wrong from right
What went wrong with my mind
I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...

Life's unkind, so hard upon an only child
Took it all out on the world
Don't you know two wrongs don't make a right
Look into my eyes
See the pain of a lifetime

I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...
He wants to love somebody, nothing less
No man can take the pressure and loneliness
He's over the edge

I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...
