Misery
Vexed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I cannot find my mind, it's somewhere lost inside
Deja vu or just another curse?
I'm running out of luck, think I should just give up
Save me from myself
'Cause I'm living in hell
I know this won't end well for me
One for sorrow, two for misery
How many more times can I face this agony?
Third time lucky or am I kidding myself?
'Cause this anxiety is blinding me and I need your help
I need your help
How could I have been
So pathetically naive?
I feel sick to my stomach, it's happened again
How much longer do I have to pretend that I'm okay?
There's nothing that'll get in my way
It's not just Gods that get betrayed
One for sorrow, two for misery
How many more times can I face this agony?
Third time lucky or am I kidding myself?
'Cause this anxiety is blinding me and I need your help
I need your help
Lead us not into temptation
It only leads to devastation
In "Misery" by Vexed, the lyrics convey a deep sense of inner turmoil and despair. The opening lines invite the listener to peel back the singer's skin metaphorically, implying vulnerability and a desire for introspection. The search for their own mind suggests a feeling of being lost within themselves, unable to find clarity or peace. The mention of déjà vu or another curse indicates a repetitive cycle of negative experiences or thoughts that they are grappling with.
The lyrics further express a sense of hopelessness and a desire to give up. The plea to be saved from oneself indicates a recognition of the self-destructive patterns they are trapped in. The repeated lines of "living in hell" and "this won't end well for me" highlight the intensity of their suffering.
The mention of "one for sorrow, two for misery" draws upon the superstition regarding magpies, symbolizing the accumulation of pain and misery. The lyrics question whether the singer is fooling themselves by hoping that the next time will be different, all while anxiety blinds them and keeps them from finding a way out. The repeated plea for help emphasizes their desperate need for support and guidance.
