[Intro]
We come into this world unknown
But know that we are not alone
They try and knock us down
But change is coming, it's our time now

[Verse 1]
Hey everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
And hey… yeah, I know what you're going through
Don't let it get the best of you, you'll make it out alive
Oh

[Pre-Chorus]
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

[Chorus]
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

[Verse 2]
Hey, this is not a funeral
It's a revolution, after all your tears have turned to rage
Just wait, everything will be okay
Even when you're feeling like it's going down in flames
Oh

[Pre-Chorus]
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

[Chorus]
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

[Verse 3]
They can't do nothing to you, they can't do nothing to me
This is the life that we choose, this is the life that we bleed
So throw your fists in the air
Come out, come out if you dare
Tonight we're gonna change forever

[Bridge]
Everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
Oh

[Pre-Chorus]
People like us, we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

[Chorus]
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
We are all misfits living in a world on fire (In a world on fire)
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
(When the flames get higher)
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

[Outro]
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

In 2002, she came to prominence after winning the first season of American Idol, and has since been established as “The Original American Idol”. Her debut single, “A Moment Like This”, topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and broke the record for the biggest jump to number one in the chart’s history.

Her first album, Thankful included the top ten single “Miss Independent”, which earned her first Grammy nomination. Her second album Breakaway produced the hit single “Since U Been Gone” which reached number two on the Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.

Clarkson went in a different direction with her self-creatively-controlled third album, My December. It debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 and produced the top-ten single “Never Again.” Her fourth album, All I Ever Wanted debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Lead single “My Life Would Suck Without You” re-broke the record for biggest jump to number one on the Hot 100, jumping 97-1 in its second week on the chart. The record still stands today.
