Misery
P!nk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another night and these blues got me down
Oh, misery! I sure could use some company
Since he's been gone I ain't been the same
I carry the weight like an old ball and chain
Guess its all meant to be
For love to cause me misery
Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me
Seems its my destiny
For love to cause me misery
And, oh! I've been down this road before
With a passion that turns into pain
And each I saw love walk out the door
I swore never get caught again
But ain't it true? It takes what it takes
And sometime we get too smart to late.
One more heartache for me
Another night of misery
Oh! And oh misery! Oh misery!
Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me
Oh misery! Oh misery!
Tell me why, why, why, why, why, why does this
Heart make a fool of me
Seems its my destiny
For love to cause misery, oh
Misery
Guess its all meant to be
For love to cause me misery, oh, no, yeah
Misery
The song "Misery" by P!nk is about the pain and misery that comes with the end of a relationship. The opening line, "Shadows are fallin' all over town", creates a mournful and melancholic tone to the song. The singer is feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders and is struggling to deal with the blues of being alone. She is desperately seeking comfort and company to ease the pain of her heartbreak.
The chorus asks the question, "Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me?" suggesting that no matter how much the singer tries to protect herself, she always ends up getting hurt. She tries to avoid falling in love again but seems to be unable to resist the temptation of a new relationship, even though she knows that it will eventually cause her more misery.
The lyrics reflect the universal struggle of trying to let go of a past relationship and move on, but being unable to do so because of the pain and heartache that still lingers. The song is a reminder that even though love can bring us happiness, it can also bring us pain and misery.
