Misery

I've been sippin' rum like it's H2O Drownin' in spirits while livin' like a ghost Searchin' for God at the bottom of bottles And losin' myself in the process I keep breakin' down like a beat-up truck Sleepin' at the wheel with my eyes sewed shut Wallow in pity, the city has plenty like me How the hell did I wind up here? Lyin' in a ditch Talkin' to myself Like I flipped a switch Makin' me someone else Eventually my tendencies Might push you away Please, please, stay Take me for what I have to offer I'm a broken mess Can you stitch me up and mend me? Can you make me whole again? Sorry for the hell I drag you under I did not intend To become what I am, the shell of a man Misery really does love company I've been throwin' stones at the lookin' glass Denyin' what I am, denyin' what I have, oh That's illusion I'm choosin', the truth is it chose me Coursin' through my veins like acid in an IV Stuck in cruise control, bracin' for the impact Lyin' in a ditch Lyin' to myself And the worst part is No one's tried to help My tendencies, they seem to be Pushing you away Please, please, stay Take me for what I have to offer I'm a broken mess Can you stitch me up and mend me? Can you make me whole again? Sorry for the hell I drag you under I did not intend To become what I am, the shell of a man Misery really does love company You deserve the better man The better man Maybe I get caught up in the sound Of you cryin' over me A vicious cycle, we Just keep spinnin' around and around Take me for what I have to offer I'm a broken mess Can you stitch me up and mend me? Can you make me whole again? Sorry for the hell I drag you under I did not intend To become what I am, the shell of a man Misery really does love company You deserve much better
