My Misery

[Intro]
(Ooh)

[Verse 1]
I called an old friend, she's been having it hard
Sleeping without a sleeping bag, in her yard
She cried and said, "I miss when we were children"
Can't go back to work with her mental condition

[Pre-Chorus]
I went to Heaven
No one was there but me

[Chorus]
And my misery (Huh)
Made me late for this meeting 'cause I was crying
Oh, my misery (Huh)
Hundred fifty a week on therapy
Oh, my misery (Huh)
It sounds like a bird when it starts to sing
Oh, my misery, hope it never leaves
My misery keeps me company, my misery

[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh) My misery

[Verse 2]
My grandpa sold all her things, except the white dress
Hung up for years, all alone in the closet
When he died, I took all their Jesus paintings
I don't know why, guess I like the suffering

[Pre-Chorus]
I went to Heaven
No one was there but me

[Chorus]
And my misery (Huh)
Made me late for this meeting 'cause I was crying
Oh, my misery (Huh)
Hundred fifty a week on therapy
Oh, my misery (Huh)
It sounds like a bird when it starts to sing
Oh, my misery, hope it never leaves
My misery keeps me company, my misery

[Post-Chorus]
(Oh) Oh, my misery, ha
(Oh)

[Bridge]
(Ooh) The preacher's son gave me a ring
(Ooh) The night before I left Missouri
(Ooh) Lost my virginity at thirteen
(Ooh) Jesus Christ, that's early
I saw my abuser in a dream
I somehow felt some empathy
I realized the pain that he's in would always be worse for me and my misery
(Ooh) Oh, ah
(Ooh)
My misery
Is a candle I lit on my birthday
It's icing on a cake
And I eat every piece
My misery
It's kinda sweet
It's kinda sweet
My misery
I blow out the candles so I can see, yeah

[Chorus]
My misery (Huh)
It might be the reason that I am smiling
My misery (Huh)
Hundred fifty a week on therapy
My misery (Ooh)
It sounds like a bird when it starts to sing (When it starts to sing)
My misery (My misery)
My misery keeps me company, my misery
