Misery Video (MV)

I made a good friend out of happiness
She gave me magic, left me ravenous
I threw my body back into the world
And saw my feet were safe but planted firm into the earth
You took the stranger out of misery
He let you savour in your history
You took yourself up to the ocean
Submerged your body and succumbed to your emotions

Oh God take misery away
He's killing us slowly and he's tearing up the place
The sun went in when he showed his face
And I can barely breathe because his presence is a weight

So on our knees we asked for anything
And spread our arms into the emptiness
Open our lungs, breathe in the music
Under the lights we see the strength we should be using
Happiness you came to visit me
Sang half a hymn and they were listening
You turned your palms up to be read
Misery came to you and pushed them together instead

Oh God take misery away
He's killing us slowly and he's tearing up the place
The sun went in when he showed his face
And I can barely breathe because his presence is a weight

Oh God take misery away
He's killing us slowly and he's tearing up the place
The sun went in when he showed his face
And I can barely breathe because his presence is a weight

Oh God take misery away
Oh God, oh God
