Misery
Midnight Cowboys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're breathing down my neck
And i know, you're with me every step
Cause even in my sleep yeah
and even in my dreams i know
Well i know you're here with me
You'll be walking next to me
And i won't feel safe again
You look at me
Through misery
Jealousy's your only friend
You're so naive
You cannot see
My love for you has died
You're fucking haunting me
You're fucking with my head now babe
I'd rather have you dead
Cause when i'm all alone
I know i'm not alone
Now girl, i remember what you said
When you're walking down the street
You'll be walking next to me
And you won't feel safe again
You look at me
Through misery
Jealousy's your only friend
You're so naive
You cannot see
My love for you has died
You look at me
Through misery
Jealousy's your only friend
You're so naive
You cannot see
My love for you has died
The lyrics of Midnight Cowboys's song "Misery" depict a situation in which the singer is being watched and haunted by someone who used to be their lover. Throughout the song, the singer is aware of the presence of their ex-partner, even in their sleep and dreams. They describe feeling uneasy and unsafe, knowing that their ex is always nearby, following them as they walk down the street. The singer's ex-lover is depicted as being jealous and naive, unable to see that the love the singer once had for them has died.
The chorus of the song repeats the lines "You look at me through misery, jealousy's your only friend, you're so naive you cannot see, my love for you has died." These lines highlight the negative emotions that the ex-lover is experiencing and their inability to let go of the past. The verse "You're fucking haunting me, you're fucking with my head now babe, I'd rather have you dead" suggests that the singer is struggling to move on from the relationship, being haunted by the memories of their ex and the toxicity of the relationship.

I see you're looking at me
I notice that you are staring at me
You're breathing down my neck
You are standing too close to me
And i know, you're with me every step
I am aware that you are following me everywhere
Cause even in my sleep yeah
Even when I am sleeping
and even in my dreams i know
And in my dreams I am aware
Well i know you're here with me
That you are always near me
Cause when I'm walking down the street
As I walk on the street
You'll be walking next to me
You are always walking beside me
And i won't feel safe again
I do not feel safe with you around
You look at me
You stare at me
Through misery
With a look of sadness and pain
Jealousy's your only friend
You are envious and lonely
You're so naive
You are innocent and inexperienced
You cannot see
You do not understand
My love for you has died
I no longer have feelings for you
You're fucking haunting me
You are disturbing me
You're fucking with my head now babe
You are messing with my mind
I'd rather have you dead
I would prefer it if you were not alive
Cause when i'm all alone
When I am by myself
I know i'm not alone
I feel your presence
Now girl, i remember what you said
I recall what you told me
