War of My Misery
Am I Blood Lyrics

The lyrics of "War of My Misery" by Am I Blood seem to reflect the feeling of being trapped in a cycle of self-destruction and the longing for freedom. The first verse speaks of a "dreamless gift" that has been chosen as a legacy, perhaps referring to some sort of unconscious conditioning or familial patterns of behavior. It is then suggested that the singer's misery is the source of loss that someone else was seeking, and that the singer is "fading to asleep." This can be interpreted as either giving up or giving in, perhaps to the destructive tendencies that have been passed down to them.

In the chorus, the singer urges the listener to embrace the victim of their soul, and to hate it - as they do - so that they can finally break free from the cycle of misery. The second verse speaks of the "capture of grace," which may refer to a moment of enlightenment or realization about the true nature of the singer's situation. The concept of freedom is mentioned, but it is also acknowledged that it may only be an illusion. The bridge of the song describes an "untiring legion" that is aware of the singer's confession, but it would "serve no reason" to reveal it. This could be interpreted as the recognition that the singer is trapped by their own mind and habits, but that no one can help them escape unless they are willing to do the work themselves.

Overall, the lyrics of "War of My Misery" seem to portray the struggles of dealing with self-destructive tendencies and the desire for freedom from that cycle. The journey towards breaking free may not be easy, but the song suggests that it is necessary to embrace the victim and to hate it to finally move forward.
