I am Misery,
And Misery is my name...

All-powerful, mighty creator,
To man's limited flesh now bound...

May you be, as the David of old,
Strong of heart and soul...

My heart quakes with a strong knowing,
The air around in quickening...

I'm sorry my friend, I can take this no longer,
I wish I could stay, I wish I could be stronger...

I am like fire, warm and bright,
I give to those near, my warmth and light...

I viewed with cool, bored apathy,
As two men began to speak...

If the stars fall down and when life is cold,
If the seas run dry and you're growing old...

Why oh why do you continue to wander?
Blind and empty of truth...

O God, my God! I cry out to You!
Save me from the evil things I do...

Tears in silence, hopeless tears,
As grief engulfs my being...

For a moment may your heart melt with fear,
For He comes...
