My Friend of Misery Lyrics


You just stood there screaming, fearing no one was listening to you

They say the empty can rattles the most, the sound of your own voice must soothe you

Hearing only what you want to hear and knowing only what you’ve heard

You, you’re smothered in tragedy and you’re out to save the world

Misery! You insist that the weight of the world

Should be on your shoulders

Misery! There’s much more to life than what you see

My friend of misery

You still stood there screaming, no one caring about these words you tell

My friend, before your voice is gone, one man’s fun is another’s hell

These times are sent to try men’s souls but something’s wrong with all you see

You, you’ll take it on all yourself, remember, misery loves company

Misery! You insist that the weight of the world

Should be on your shoulders

Misery! There’s much more to life than what you see

My friend of misery, my friend of misery

Misery! You insist that the weight of the world

Should be on your shoulders

Misery! There’s much more to life than what you see

My friend of misery

You just stood there screaming ouh

My friend of misery

Yeah, yeah, yeah!
