Everybody gets to be misunderstood by others, and it happens all the time.

Do we have to look
At those faces that scorn us
Pain remains inside

Thinking all might change
Promises remain unkept
Hiding silent cries

Laughter seems no brighter
Each heart sinks down under
Lying in shadows

Wishing for one chance
Show them all our best
Know that we’ll succeed

Though life treats us bad
Still our hopes withstand
Trials soon will end
