misery

Lyrics

Intro — whispered
Do you hear me?
Do you fucking hear me?
SCREAM
MISERY!
Verse 1 — low, aggressive
Blackened thoughts inside my head,
Every word you said is dead.
I built a home inside the pain,
Now every wall repeats my name.
I bite my tongue, I choke it down,
Wear my suffering like a crown.
You wanna know what broke me?
Look at what you fucking made me.
Pre-Chorus — building
I called your name—
NOTHING!
I begged for help—
NOTHING!
I gave you everything I had,
And you gave me—
MISERY!
Chorus — huge clean/scream combination
PLEASE END THIS MISERY!
I'm begging on my knees!
I'm screaming through the silence,
CAN'T YOU FUCKING HEAR ME?!
You watched me fall apart,
You watched me bleed inside,
Now every piece of me is screaming—
I'M STILL ALIVE!
MISERY!
MISERY!
You don't get to bury me!
Verse 2 — screamed
I see the ghosts behind my eyes,
Every scar becomes a lie.
You told me I'd never survive,
So I learned how to fucking fight.
No more crawling.
No more pleading.
No more begging you to see me.
You wanted broken—
HERE'S YOUR MONSTER.
Pre-Chorus
I called your name—
NOTHING!
I begged for help—
NOTHING!
You pushed me underneath the weight,
Now listen to the sound I make—
I'LL NEVER BREAK!
Chorus
PLEASE END THIS MISERY!
I'm begging on my knees!
I'm screaming through the silence,
CAN'T YOU FUCKING HEAR ME?!
You watched me fall apart,
You watched me lose my mind,
But every time you tried to kill my hope—
I FUCKING CAME ALIVE!
MISERY!
MISERY!
You don't get to bury me!
BREAKDOWN — extremely heavy
Drop the guitars.
You want my pain?
TAKE IT!
You want my fear?
TAKE IT!
You want the person I was?
SHE'S FUCKING DEAD!
Riff hits.
I begged.
I screamed.
I crawled.
I bled.
But you never heard me.
So now—
HEAR THIS.
MIS—ERY!
MIS—ERY!
MIS—ERY!
I AM NOT YOUR FUCKING VICTIM!
Bridge — haunting clean vocals
Maybe somewhere underneath
There's still a part of me
That remembers what it meant
To breathe without the misery.
And if tomorrow comes,
I'll meet it standing tall.
Because the darkness that consumed me
Doesn't own me anymore.
Final Chorus — massive
PLEASE END THIS MISERY!
I'm done begging on my knees!
I found my voice inside the silence—
NOW YOU'RE GONNA HEAR ME!
You watched me fall apart,
You thought I'd disappear,
But I crawled out of the darkness
And I'm standing right here!
MISERY!
MISERY!
You couldn't fucking bury me!
MISERY!
MISERY!
YOU CREATED WHAT YOU FEAR!
Outro — screamed over fading riff
You wanted silence...
I BECAME THE SCREAM.
You wanted weakness...
I BECAME THE FUCKING STORM.
You wanted misery...
NOW LIVE WITH MINE.
MISERY.
