A young girl's anthem living with ADHD and the world's expectations.


___ LYRICS ___


I talk too loud, I laugh too weird
They roll their eyes when I appear
Always “too much,” or “not enough”
Never right—just wrong and rough

Ohhh..

I'm a hurricane in a paper cup
Spinning thoughts, can't shut 'em up
They say, "Just focus," but they don't see
The chaos that's consuming me
I don’t fit in, I never did
Like I broke some rule when I was a kid


Wired and misunderstood
Living in a world that says I should
Be calm, be still, fit in the mold
But my mind's a fire, uncontrolled
Wired, but misunderstood
[Echo] (misunderstood) (misunderstood)

Late again, lost track of time
My planner's blank, but thoughts entwine
They say I’m lazy, say I’m rude
Like I asked to be this dude

I’m the glitch in your routine
The static in your silver screen

Every sigh, every eye roll
Cuts deeper, takes its toll

I'm not broken, just wired differently
Yearning for someone to see me

Wired and misunderstood
Living in a world that says I should
Be calm, be still, fit in the mold
But my mind's a fire, uncontrolled
Wired, but misunderstood

Wired and misunderstood
Living in a world that says I should
Be calm, be still, fit in the mold
But my mind's a fire, uncontrolled
Wired, but misunderstood
[Echo] (misunderstood) (misunderstood)

So here's my anthem, loud and clear
For every soul who lives in fear
You're not alone in how you feel
Together, we can scream and heal

Wired, but misunderstood
 (misunderstood) (misunderstood)
