Misery
VISCERAL AUTOPSY Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel the weight of the world washing over me
You spit your venom, but I sleep with the snakes
You spit your venom, but I sleep with the snakes
Trapped in this box; days feel like years
Like a rat in a cage, my mood steadily decays
Life feels lonely when you're left in the dirt
The void it calls my name; they say ill go insane
If so, I guess I've got you to blame
Yeah Yeah; you can say I'm washed up
No reason to live, you can talk your tough shit




But just know, I am the hate of man
I am the hate of man

I feel the weight of the world washing over me
I am overwhelmed by the burden of the world's problems


You spit your venom, but I sleep with the snakes
You criticize and attack me, but I am resilient to your words and actions


Trapped in this box; days feel like years
I feel stuck and time seems to drag on


Like a rat in a cage, my mood steadily decays
Being confined and restricted is causing my mood to worsen


Life feels lonely when you're left in the dirt
Being abandoned and forgotten by society is a lonely experience


The void it calls my name; they say ill go insane
I am drawn towards emptiness and others are predicting my descent into madness


If so, I guess I've got you to blame
If I do lose my sanity, I attribute it to the way you've treated me


Yeah Yeah; you can say I'm washed up
You may believe I am a failure past my prime


No reason to live, you can talk your tough shit
You may believe that I have no purpose and your insults won't affect me


But just know, I am the hate of man
Despite what you think of me, I represent the negative qualities of humanity


I am the hate of man
I embody the hatred and darkness within people
