Beautiful Letdown Lyrics


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 doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in, to fit in
until i found out
That I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]

I will carry cause in song
Where I don't belong
I don't belong
It was a beautiful letdown
When you found me here
For once, I never know
I see everything clear
I'll be a beautiful letdown
It's what I'll never be
I know it may cost my soul
I sing for free
Still chasing our times
And the rising sun
And I'll die while the planet's still spinning
And no one wins, no body's won
See, I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I will carry cause in song
Where I don't belong
I don't belong
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I'm gunna set sight, set sail
For the kingdom come
Kingdom come, your kingdom come
[I don't belong]
Wont you let me down, yeah
[I don't belong]
My foolish pride wont ever let me down
Easy living
Your not much like the babe
Easy dying
Your just about the same
Would you please
Take me off your list
Easy living, please
C'mon and let me down
We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the drop-outs
The losers, the sinners, the failures, and the fools
We're a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound?
And I would save the one to let me down, yeah
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
Feels like I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
Yeah, I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
Feels like I don't belong here
[I don't belong]
I don't belong, oh
[I don't belong]
Would you let me down
[I don't belong]
C'mon, let me down
[I don't belong]
Let me down
[I don't belong]
So just let me down, yeah
[I don't belong]
C'mon and let me down
[I don't belong]
'Cause I don't belong here
Please, wont you let me down

Switchfoot is a grammy-winning alternative rock band from San Diego, California, United States. The band was formed in 1996 with the brothers Jon Foreman (lead singer/guitarist) and Tim Foreman (bass). Long-time friend Chad Butler (drums) joined soon after. Eventually the band evolved to what it is today with the addition of members Jerome Fontamillas (key/guitar/electronics - formerly of Mortal and Fold Zandura) and Drew Shirley (guitar - formerly of All Together Separate).

Although the band started out playing at Christian music festivals, they shun the label of "Christian rock," with singer and guitarist Jon Foreman saying, "For us, it's a faith, not a genre. We've always been very open and honest about where the songs are coming from. For us, these songs are for everyone. Calling us `Christian rock' tends to be a box that closes some people out and excludes them. And that's not what we're trying to do. Music has always opened my mind -- and that's what we want." They started out on Charlie Peacock's label "re:think" and spent several years appearing at Christian festivals and enjoying Christian radio hits. Most of their early tours were with Christian bands and both of the band's new members were borrowed from Christian bands.

Switchfoot did not see success outside of the Christian rock scene until they were featured alongside singer Mandy Moore on the A Walk To Remember Soundtrack. The band's first true commercial success came in 2003 with the release of their fourth major label (and first mainstream label) offering, The Beautiful Letdown. The album went on to sell more than 2 million albums and Switchfoot became the most popular rock band to be associated with Christian music.

They were featured on the British Edition of the Spiderman II soundtrack along with the likes of Taking Back Sunday and Dashboard Confessional to name a few, in 2004 with the song 'Meant To Live'.

In 2005 Switchfoot released "Nothing Is Sound". The album went gold within 3 months and received much critical acclaim.

Switchfoot's highly anticipated album, titled "Oh! Gravity." was released on December 26th, 2006.

On November 10th, 2009, Switchfoot released their first album produced under their own label, lowercase people. "Mess of Me", a single from the album released months before the CD, has enjoy chart-topping radio plays since its release.

In 2010 Switchfoot released their album, "Hello Hurricane".

On September 27th, 2011, to much anticipation and excitement, Switchfoot released their newest album, "Vice Verses".
