Meant For Misery

(album: Retrofit - 2021)

Meant for misery
Meant for misery

Woke up at 3 pm with a head full of dread
Gotta do this all over again
Well I don't know if I can face this
Cause I'm staring down the barrel of a day so aimless
How the hell did this happen?
Did I just wake up in this rut I'm trapped in?
Feel like a rat in a cage
Racing around in a maze
Just to get through each day

They keep telling me things'll get better
But I, well I can't wait for forever
They keep telling me things'll get better
That life is looking up but shit's worse than ever

I've tried and I've tried but it got me nowhere
I've tried and I've tried but life just ain't fair
And now I finally see that the whole world has it out for me
If things are meant to be
Then maybe I'm just meant for misery

I'm always in the eye of the shit storm
Stuck at the epicenter ever since the second I was born
Been trying to make the best of the hand that I was dealt
Don't mean to sound bitter but I bet I'd be better off being anybody else
Instead of myself
I guess it looks like I'm stuck in fucking hell
So give me one good reason not to give up now
Because I'm done believing things'll work themselves out

They keep telling me things'll get better
But I, well I can't wait for forever
They keep telling me things'll get better
That life is looking up but shit's worse than ever

I've tried and I've tried but it got me nowhere
I've tried and I've tried but life just ain't fair
And now I finally see that the whole world has it out for me
If things are meant to be
Then maybe I'm just meant for misery
Misery
Misery
Misery
Misery loves my company
Misery
Misery
Misery
Misery loves my company

In any moment
I'm gonna blow it
I guess I'm hopeless
In any moment
I'm gonna blow it
I should've known

I've tried and I've tried but it got me nowhere
I've tried and I've tried but life just ain't fair
And now I finally see that the whole world has it out for me
If things are meant to be
Then maybe I'm just meant for misery
