If Not For Misery

I've done my best to help you understand A part of me that wants to take your hand, and pull you close To dry your tears, but after all these years We need to let it go, it's not the love we used to know Oh, listen can't you see If not for misery, we'd have nothing left at all So hard we try, to make it like before Beyond these walls, there must be something more, more than this Where love won't die, it's time to say goodbye We need to let it go, it's not the love we used to know Oh, listen can't you see If not for misery, we'd have nothing left at all Now it's a game of chutes and ladders We only play to win, and nothing else much matters Remember this to your own heart be true And if you are, your heart will see you through We need to let it go, it's not the love we used to know Oh, listen can't you see If not for misery, we'd have nothing left at all We need to let it go, it's not the love we used to know Oh, listen can't you see If not for misery, we'd have nothing left at all Oh why can't you see If not for misery, we'd have nothing left at all
