"The Beautiful Letdown" Lyrics [edit]
by Switchfoot | from the album The Best Yet Deluxe Edition
 

It was a beautiful letdown when I crashed and burned: when I found myself alone, unknown and hurt,
It was a beautiful letdown, the day I knew that all the riches this world had to offer me would never do.

In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt, I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in, until I found out I don’t belong here,
I don’t belong here,
I will carry your cross and your song where I don’t belong,
I don’t belong.

It was a beautiful letdown when you found me here,
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon, I see everything clear,
I’ll be your beautiful letdown; that’s what I’ll forever be,
And though it may cost my soul, I’ll sing for free,
We’re still chasing our tails and the rising sun,
And our dark-water planet still spinning in a race where no one wins and no one’s one

See, I don’t belong here,
I don’t belong here,
I will carry your cross and your song where I don’t belong here,
I don’t belong,
I don’t belong here,
I don’t belong here,
I’m gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come,
Kingdom come, your kingdom come,
Won’t you let me down?
Yeah, let my foolish proud forever let me down.

Easy living, you’re not much like the name,
Easy dying, hey, you look just about the same,
Won’t you please take me off your list?
Easy living, please come on and let me down.

We are a beautiful letdown, painfully uncool,
The church of the dropouts, and losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools,
What a beautiful let down
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune, yeah.

I don’t belong here,
No, I don’t belong here,
No, I don’t belong here,
Feels like I don’t belong here,
Yeah, I don’t belong here
It goes like: I don’t belong here,
Yeah, I don’t belong.

Would you let me down?
Come on and let me down,
You always let me down,
You’re somebody I’ve let down, yeah,
Come on, let me down ‘cause I don’t belong here,
Please, won’t you let me down?
