Misery
Pink / Steven Tyler Lyrics

Shadows are fallin' all over town
The singer feels a sense of darkness and gloom that pervades the entire town

Another night and these blues got me down
The singer is feeling sad and depressed, as they are accustomed to feeling every night

Oh, misery! I sure could use some company
The singer is lonely and wishes they had someone to share their misery with

Since he's been gone I ain't been the same
The artist's life has changed dramatically since their lover left them

I carry the weight like an old ball and chain
The artist feels burdened by their sadness and can't seem to shake it off

Guess its all meant to be
The singer resigns themselves to the idea that their misery is part of their fate

For love to cause me misery
The singer recognizes that their sadness is a result of their romantic relationships

Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me
The artist is frustrated by the fact that they continue to be hurt by love even though they can't help but fall for it

Seems its my destiny
The artist believes that their fate is to be hurt by love

And, oh! I've been down this road before
The artist has experienced heartbreak before and recognizes the familiar feeling of misery

With a passion that turns into pain
The singer recognizes that their intense feelings of love often lead to heartbreak and pain

And each I saw love walk out the door
The artist has experienced the end of a romantic relationship multiple times

I swore never get caught again
The singer made a vow to themselves to never let themselves get hurt by love again

But ain't it true? It takes what it takes
The singer recognizes that sometimes people can only learn from their mistakes through experience

And sometime we get too smart to late.
The singer recognizes that sometimes they don't recognize their own toxic patterns in relationships until it's too late

One more heartache for me
The artist knows that they are doomed to experience another heartbreak

Another night of misery
The artist resigns themselves to another night of feeling sad and alone

Tell me why, why, why, why, why, why does this
The singer can't help but wonder why they keep getting hurt by love

Misery
The singer is consumed by feelings of sadness and heartbreak

Guess its all meant to be
The artist believes that their misery is simply part of their fate

For love to cause me misery, oh, no, yeah
The artist laments the fact that their romantic relationships cause them so much pain and misery
