Misery
Michigander Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Being comfortable was not enough for me
But then you walked into the room
I knew all my plans were doomed
Started talking to me
So tell me what you're thinking
'Cuz I think I feel the same as you
So take my heart and break it in two
I didn't want to have to go
Well I, I couldn't find a heart
I couldn't find a home
But if you think I'm misery, then baby all the company
It never leaves me alone, no
So tell me what you're thinking
'Cuz I think I feel the same as you
'Cuz you've got my knees shaking
So take my heart and break it in two
I'm trying to stay awake till I fall asleep
I'm stuck between a pillow and a dream
I'm too busy to call
Could you try next week?
You can blame it on me
So tell me what you're thinking
'Cuz I think I feel the same way as you
'Cuz you've got my knees shaking
So take my heart and break it in two
'Cuz all I want is you
Yeah all I want is you
'Cuz all I want is you
Yeah all I want is you
Yeah all I want is you
The lyrics of Michigander’s song “Misery” are about falling in love and the mixed emotions that come with it. The singer gets caught up in the excitement of meeting someone new and finds themselves willing to risk everything for this person. They feel a strong connection and are willing to face heartbreak if it means being with them. The singer acknowledges the fear that comes with putting everything on the line, but they also know that it’s worth it. The line “So take my heart and break it in two” shows that the singer is willing to risk the pain of heartbreak because the potential for love is worth it.
The chorus repeats the line “So tell me what you’re thinking, 'cause I think I feel the same as you,” which shows the uncertainty that comes with falling in love. The singer wants to know if their feelings are reciprocated and whether they are on the same page with the person they are falling for. This lyric is relatable to anyone who has been in a similar situation, where they are unsure of the other person’s intentions or their own feelings.
The bridge of the song talks about the struggle of staying awake until sleep takes over. The singer is caught between a pillow and a dream and finds themselves too busy to call. This shows that while they are willing to risk everything for love, they also have their own life and responsibilities that they must attend to.
Overall, “Misery” is a beautiful song that explores the complexity of falling in love, the fear of heartbreak, and the uncertainty of the future.
