Misery grips my heart with icy claws
Dragging me down into despair's maws
Every day, every night, it holds me tight
And I long for relief with all my might
When will this endless torment cease?
When can I find a moment's peace?
The weight of sadness crushes me down
And I fear I'll never wear a happy crown
In every moment, every breath I take
Misery grips me with its cruel embrace
I search for a way to break free
But the shackles of despair won't let me be
I long to see the light of a new day
To find a way to chase the shadows away
But misery is my constant companion
And I fear it will never loosen its iron grip upon
Yet, still, I hold onto hope
For a way to climb this endless slope
And find the strength to push through
To a brighter future that is new
For though misery may hold me now
I know that one day, I'll take a bow
And find a way to break the chains
That hold me captive in endless pains
So I hold on, with every breath I take
And pray for the day when I'll awake
To a life free from misery's sway
And find relief in a brighter day.
