Misery loves company
No matter how far you leave it in the past
Every single time, it will try to bring you back
Misery loves company
And you can pretend
That every single day you don’t contemplate running back to it
But Misery loves company
And it won’t back down
Do you really have what it takes to stay above ground?
Because Misery loves company
That’s what they say
Who am I to tell you any differently today?
And Misery loves company
So it will try
To pull you back down when you’ve just got the gleam back in your eye,
And the thing about misery is that it’s never satiated
It starts as a feeling, but keeps on taking
Soon, you’ll lose all that you are to this beast
Soon you’ll barely remember your name
And you won’t know where next to reach,
And Misery, it loves company
So it’ll seep into any good thing and manage to sour something sweeter than honey
But if you take a second and think about it
Think of a time when you were young and alone
Maybe Misery just needs a home?
Now I’m not suggesting you open your doors
But maybe brew some coffee or hot chocolate or tea
Maybe leave out a snack for Misery and me,
Misery loves company
And what can I say?
So do I at the end of the day.
