Ring around the rosie,
I’m glad that I don’t show these,
Emotions hid behind my walls,
Misery will break my fall.
As I climb the ladder high,
Hope turns back and gives a sigh.
This ladder seems so very tall,
Misery will break my fall.
This wall was formed from tears and blood,
Memories I cannot love.
This wall was built by traitors true,
People that I thought I knew.
No one stopped me,
No one cares,
About that silly girl up there.
Look up kids!
Give a wave!
She won’t jump,
She’s not that brave.
Misery, please hold me tight.
I don't want to cry tonight.
Wait,
Where did you go?
I can see the floor below.
Misery, I changed my mind!
I don’t want to die tonight!
Misery, don’t let me sprawl!
Misery?
MISERY!
MISERY!
Ashes, ashes.
It’s all your fault.
