Your Chosen Misery Lyrics

When the ones you love have let you down
Feel failure and wear the fool's crown
Remember still there is a blessing
Within the hardest lessonYou self serving arrogant sycophant
Your selfish acts thoughtless tasks and livid rants
Every time you want to make the world go away
Just take an injection of your chosen miseryAnd when I fall
I have the strength to learn the steps
And crawl into the pain
Sometimes the mirror is cruel
If your mother gave the lesson
Never waste the truthYou self serving arrogant sycophant
Your selfish acts thoughtless tasks and livid rants
Every time you want to make the world go away
Just take an injection of your chosen miseryYesterday was plagued with rain
Like seven drops of velvet pain
Hail yesterday
Thursday was the day of sin

Friday silent hell began
Hail yesterdaySaturday was plagued with rain
I played the jester perfectly, hail yesterday
Sunday never came to mind
I played the jester perfectly when misery delivered meMonday's afterthought was blind
I played the jester perfectly, hail yesterday
Tuesday stole the show
I played the jester perfectly when misery delivered meHail yesterday
Hail yesterdayTuesday stole the show
When Wednesday killed the golden crow
