Misery Magician

by Burnt Log

/

lyrics

The past is a silent assassin
Making enemies of our future
Once planted the seeds of neurosis
Provide nourishment for my winter
Been banking the wages of fear
Made a significant return on investment
Guilt free interactions
Your currency’s no longer valid

I am the misery magician
Conjuring regret from nowhere
Try showering these thoughts away
But I can see their faces everywhere
I take a negative position
Manufacture dread from thin air
The further I get away
I’m missing the days that I didn’t care

Spoiling your chill with a memory
Home in on those arrogant times
Wincing the night away
Catastrophize the things all around
Learning the language of empathy
Total recall without fun
Stock up the shelves with alternatives
Feel awkward in a brand new way

Inside me
There’s a cage
Indifferent to reason
There’s just guilt with added shame
I’m shrinking
Lost my seat
Free-falling from an aeroplane
Squashed by dinosaur feet

Here comes the misery magician
Conjuring regret from nowhere
Try showering these thoughts away
But I can see their faces everywhere
I take a negative position
Manufacture dread from thin air
The further I get away
I’m missing the days that I didn’t care
