Lyrics for Mr. Misery

They call me Mister Misery They laugh and dump decay on me He let them throw me in a pit Full of angry spite and spit With wasted flesh and broken bones God has left me all alone He made me Mister Misery I don't know why He's mad at me He made me Mister Misery I don't know why He's mad at me He hates my hands, He hates my skin He hates the smell upon my chin But He still shines His light on me With love disguised as agony I beg for pain but not for death His hatred fills my emptiness
