Wrong
Depeche Mode Lyrics

I was born with the wrong sign
I feel like I was born under an unlucky star or with an unfortunate birth chart.

In the wrong house
My family situation is not ideal for me.

With the wrong ascendancy
My family's social status is not desirable or respected by others.

I took the wrong road
I made a bad choice or decision in my life.

That led to the wrong tendencies
My actions and habits are not helpful or positive for me and others.

I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
I found myself in an unfortunate or dangerous situation that was out of my control.

For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
My motives and intentions were misguided or inappropriate for the situation.

On the wrong day of the wrong week
I had bad luck or timing when it came to certain events or situations.

I used the wrong method with the wrong technique
I tried to solve a problem or achieve a goal using the wrong approach or strategy.

There's something wrong with me chemically
I may have a mental or emotional issue that affects how I think and feel.

Something wrong with me inherently
There is a fundamental flaw or problem with me as a person or individual.

The wrong mix in the wrong genes
My genetic makeup or inherited traits are not desirable or beneficial for me.

I reached the wrong ends by the wrong means
I achieved my goals in a way that was not ethical or moral, or not beneficial for me or others.

It was the wrong plan
My strategy or approach to a situation was flawed or incorrect.

In the wrong hands
The situation or object was not being used or managed properly by the people involved.

With the wrong theory for the wrong man
The explanation or idea being used to solve a problem or understand a situation was not suited for the person involved.

The wrong lies, on the wrong vibes
False information or a negative atmosphere was involved in the situation.

The wrong questions with the wrong replies
The conversation, interview or interaction was misinformed or not beneficial to either party.

I was marching to the wrong drum
I was following a path or goal that was not suited for me or did not resonate with me.

With the wrong scum
I was associating with the wrong people or group of friends who had a negative influence on me.

Pissing out the wrong energy
I was putting my focus and efforts into the wrong or negative things.

Using all the wrong lines
I was saying or doing things that were not appropriate or effective in the situation.

And the wrong signs
I was sending out signals or giving clues that were misleading or not helpful in the situation.

With the wrong intensity
I was putting too much or too little effort into a situation, often leading to negative outcomes.

I was on the wrong page of the wrong book
I was not informed or knowledgeable enough about the situation or issue.

With the wrong rendition of the wrong hook
I had a misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the situation or problem.

Made the wrong move, every wrong night
I made bad decisions or mistakes that led to negative outcomes habitually or frequently.

With the wrong tune played 'til it sounded right, yeah
I was putting in effort or time into a situation that was not moving me towards success or a positive outcome.
