No one knows how much this song and album means to me, it got me through the hardest times of my life and I cannot simply put into words how much it affects me emotionally anytime I listen to it. Thank you so much for writing a truly beautiful album that has never let me down….
I've been trying to find this video for years man. I first saw this concert when I was 6 years old on DVD. Ever since then I've had the faint memory of him singing into the guitar at 4:18.

[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus 1]
In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in
Until I found out
[Chorus]
That I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong
[Verse 2]
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 a beautiful let down
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We're still chasing our tails and the rising sun
And our dark water planet's
Still spinning in a race
Where no one wins and no one's won
[Chorus]
See, I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong (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 gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come
Kingdom come
Your kingdom come (I don't belong)
Won't you let me down yeah
Let my foolish pride
Forever let me down
[Bridge]
Easy living, you're not much like your 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
[Bridge 2]
We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the dropouts
The losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools
Oh, what a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune
Yeah
[Outro]
I don't belong here no I don't belong here
Now I don't belong here, feels like I don't belong here yeah
I don't belong feels like I don't belong here
No I don't belong
Would you let me down
Come and let me down you always let me down
So glad that I'm letdown yeah yeah come on and let me down
'Cause I don't belong here please won't you let me down

Why is the singer wearing a shirt with "Leviathan" on it???
i wonder the same...
Live*
Busco una de ellos que inicia como electrónica?
Angelito Srivera debe ser de los últimos cds jajaj
debe ser meant to live or this is your life, en este mismo concierto
Why does it say Leviathon on his t-shirt?
