ELLIOTT SMITH LYRICS - Miss Misery

"Miss Misery"



I'll fake it through the day

With some help from Johnny Walker red

And the cold pain behind my eyes

It shoots back through my head

With two tickets torn in half

And a lot of nothing to do

But its alright

Cause some enchanted night I'll be with you

Tarot cards and the lines in my hand

Tell me I'm wrong

But they're untrue

Got plans for both of us

That involved a trip out of town

To a place I've seen in a magazine that you left lying around

I cant hold my liquor

But I keep a good attitude

Cause its alright

Some enchanted night I'll be with you

Though you'd rather see me gone

Than to see it come the day ill be waiting for you anyway

Next door the TV's flashing blue frames on the wall

Its a comedy from the 70s

With the lead no one recalls

Vanished into oblivion

Its easy to do a

And I cry to see

When you talk to me

The day you said we were through

But it's alright

Some enchanted night I'll be with you
