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 I went to heaven No one was there but me And my misery Made me late for this meeting 'cuz I was crying My misery Hundred-fifty a week on therapy My misery Sounds like a bird when it starts to sing My misery hope it never leaves My misery keeps me company, my misery My misery! 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 I went to heaven No one was there but me And my misery Made me late for this meeting 'cuz I was crying My misery Hundred-fifty a week on therapy My misery Sounds like a bird when it starts to sing My misery hope it never leaves My misery keeps me company, my misery My misery! The preacher's son gave me a ring The night before I left Missouri Lost my virginity at thirteen 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 than me and my misery 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 candle so I can see My misery Might be the reason that I am smiling My misery Hundred-fifty a week on therapy My misery sounds like a bird when it starts to sing (When it starts to sing) My misery My misery keeps me company, my misery
