Misery, My Friend
You put the sour in lemonade
You cover the sun just to make it gray
Reminding me that I'm underpaid
My life's a bore each day
You always bring the doom and gloom
Counting the cost when there's only gold
Steal my chair so that there's no room
You make me feel so old
Can't even see the light ahead
Can't even get out of my bed
No sugar coating here
Could I be going nuclear?
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
You thunder loud when life's a beach
Pushing the prize so it's out of reach
Wishing that I could say farewell
My life's a living hell
Can't even see the light ahead
Can't even get out of my bed
No sugar coating here
Could I be going nuclear?
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
Sometimes I find the strength to climb
Pushing myself through mud and slime
Bracing myself against the pain
Trying to fight through pouring rain
I'm so proud, I persevere
But when I think I'm in the clear
A wall of water sweeps me down
I see you as I drown
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
You cover the sun just to make it gray
Reminding me that I'm underpaid
My life's a bore each day
You always bring the doom and gloom
Counting the cost when there's only gold
Steal my chair so that there's no room
You make me feel so old
Can't even see the light ahead
Can't even get out of my bed
No sugar coating here
Could I be going nuclear?
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
You thunder loud when life's a beach
Pushing the prize so it's out of reach
Wishing that I could say farewell
My life's a living hell
Can't even see the light ahead
Can't even get out of my bed
No sugar coating here
Could I be going nuclear?
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
Sometimes I find the strength to climb
Pushing myself through mud and slime
Bracing myself against the pain
Trying to fight through pouring rain
I'm so proud, I persevere
But when I think I'm in the clear
A wall of water sweeps me down
I see you as I drown
Your darkness, it draws life
From me, each day
Your shadow, walks with me,
Won't go away
You haunt me, torment me
Chip away
All my self respect
My self esteem is wrecked
My friend
