3rd Degree - Misunderstood [09:34]
music by Myung, Petrucci, Portnoy, Rudess
lyrics by John Petrucci
Waiting
In the calm of desolation
Wanting to break
From this circle of confusion
Sleeping
In the depths of isolation
Trying to wake
From this daydream of illusion
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many
Never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman
I have been
Misunderstood
It challenges the essence of my soul
And leaves me in a state of disconnection
As I navigate the maze of self control
Playing a lion being led to a cage
I turn from a thief to a beggar
From a god to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many
Never really knowing anyone
If I seem superhuman
I have been
Misunderstood
Playing a lion being led to a cage
I turn from surreal to seclusion
From love to disdain
From belief to delusion
From a thief to a beggar
From a god to God save me
How can I feel abandoned even when the world surrounds me
How can I bite the hand that feeds the strangers all around me
How can I know so many
Never really knowing anyone

power from powerlessness | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/14/2008
Powerful bass and chords highlight transitions from arrogance and self-reliance to collapse and failure, leading to spiritual rescue. I have experienced such transitions and ultimate victory, and feel all the more power from the song both musically and lyrically. In my life, I feel mistaken in the past more than misunderstood, but I identify with the song completely.
As Raúl said, DT is awasome, the band use it's knowledge to produce songs that transmit such kind of feelings like this does.
Realmente saben como incluir todo lo que saben en cada cancion que componen, no dejan de sorprenderme.
I think this is a great song. Petrucci actually passes all of his feelings on this song and the music is impecably, as always, coordinated, played exquisitly and the composition is absolutely amazing. It's a song that talks about how high you esteem someone and how you vision changes in a second just with one mistake. I am most convinced that Dream Theater is one of the best bands in the world in our times and all that have preceeded this time.
