Misery
Warstories Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My own mind
Plays tricks on me
All I know, misery and suffering
Calling and calling to me
Encased in this daze I am buried alive
Locked into a world where we're left on the side
I'm pulling the curtain away from my eyes
I don't know where to go
My own mind
Plays tricks on me
All I know, misery and suffering
Calling and calling to me
Life's taking all that's left from me
I can't seem to change my direction or leave
Toxicity enriched through you
How can I fit in where never belonged
Lost in the dark
You will find the way to burn the hate inside you
Don't fight the change
Release everything that's locked you in this shadow
I don't know
I don't know where to go
My own mind
Plays tricks on me
All I know, Misery and Suffering
Calling and calling to me
Calling and calling to me
Calling and calling to me
Lost in the dark
You will find the way to burn the hate inside you
Don't fight the change
Release everything that's locked you in this shadow
Save yourself from the burdens of this empty soul we hide
Tossed aside
Not a person to this fucked up world I reside
The lyrics of Warstories' song "Misery" expresses a feeling of being lost and imprisoned in one's own mind. The singer is struggling with feelings of misery and suffering, which are confronting them relentlessly. They feel trapped in a world where they are left on the side and unable to change their direction or escape from their toxic surroundings. However, the lyrics offer some hope for the singer, as they encourage them to embrace change and release themselves from the burdens of their empty soul.
The lyrics convey a deep sense of emotional turmoil and despair, with the singer coming across as a person who is undergoing a period of great personal struggle. They are aware that they are their own worst enemy, and that their mind is playing tricks on them. The repetition of the phrase "calling and calling to me" hints at the powerlessness that the singer feels in the face of their own thoughts and emotions.
The lyrics also touch upon the theme of self-discovery and acceptance. The singer is aware that they do not fit in with the world around them and are unsure of where to go. However, they are urged to find the way to burn the hate inside them and release themselves from the shadow that imprisons them. Ultimately, the song offers a glimmer of hope that the singer can rise above their suffering and misery and discover a new path forward.
