Dead Wrong Lyrics

If only I knew what I know
I'd make it a point to say so
To everyone that got me here
And everyone that made it

Clear I was dead wrong all along
You said it for my sake
That I would not lose my way
When I was astray

I'm doing the best that I could
Trying my best to be understood
Maybe I'm changing slowly
I'd get out, turn around if only I

Knew I was dead wrong all along
You said it for my sake
As if I would lose my way
When I was dead wrong all along

Mine is not a new story
Mine is not a new story
Min is nothing new
But it is for me

So I was dead wrong all along
You said it for my sake
You thought I'd lost my way
When I was dead wrong all along
You said it for my sake
That I would not lose my way

Did I really lose my way
Or are you afraid?

What is the Meaning of Dead Wrong?

Ever found yourself so off track you're practically inventing new ways to be wrong? Welcome to the club, and The Fray is our reluctant president. "Dead Wrong" dives into the humbling journey of realizing you've been the captain of the S.S. Mistake but also hints at a nagging sense that maybe, just maybe, everyone else isn't as right as they think. It’s a melodious mea culpa mixed with a dash of defiance. Through soulful tunes, it explores personal growth and the bittersweet pill of self-awareness—because sometimes, admitting you’re lost is the first step to finding your way back. Or perhaps, it's about discovering that those who claim to guide us might also need a compass. Either way, grab your map!
