I am in control I haven’t lost my mind I am picking up the pieces Of the mess you left behind I don’t need your condescending Words about me looking lonely I don’t need your arms to hold me 'Cause misery is waiting on me I am not alone Not beaten down just yet I am not afraid Of the voices in my head And down the darkest road Something follows me I am not alone This misery loves my company Misery loves my company Leave me in the cold You better run away I’m gonna dig a hole And bury all the memories we’ve made I don’t need your condescending Words about me looking lonely I don’t need your arms to hold me 'Cause misery is waiting on me I am not alone Not beaten down just yet I am not afraid Of the voices in my head And down the darkest road Something follows me I am not alone This misery loves my company Misery loves my company I am not alone Not beaten down just yet I am not afraid Of the voices in my head And down the darkest road Something follows me I am not alone This misery loves my company Misery loves my company
