Lyrics:
Misery Town
Misery Town
Piece by piece, the puzzle comes together
A little bit at a time
Step by step, one foot before the other
She tried to leave the past behind
Head in hand, she cried for several hours
The memories etched in her mind
Love and hate – confused with one another
She hopes the pain will fade with time
But it's hard to run from the truth inside
CHORUS:
'Cos the rain keeps falling around her heart
Her dreams are all starting to drown
Just one in a million alone in the dark
She's holding on in this misery town
Holding on to this misery town
Once a child, hiding in the shadows
The scars were covered with a smile
All alone, afraid to play with others
Her secret draped in denial
Night and day, she's haunted by her story
A crippled life, trapped in lies
But it's hard to run from the truth inside
And where do you go when the sky comes crashing down around you
It's burned a hole in your soul
But walking through the fire can keep your world from falling apart
CHORUS
