Misery Inc. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gotta do it by my own. In a dark I can't reach your hand.
[Pre-chorus:]
Go with your god my dear, friend of misery.
We'll meet again at the end, final agony.
[Chorus:]
I'll find my better day.
As far as darkness guide my suicidal way, I'll take it all and then I can
die away.
Slowly fades my days away, life is so alike quicksand.
There is nothing left to say, in the dark I can't reach your hand.
[Pre-chorus:]
Go with your god my dear, friend of misery.
We'll meet again at the end, final agony.
[Chorus:]
As long as darkness guide my suicidal way, by the end of the rope
I'll find my better day.
As far as darkness guide my suicidal way, I'll take it all and then I can
die away.
