The Music Or The Misery Lyrics
Artist(Band):Fall Out Boy
Review The Song (15)Print the Lyrics

I got my stitches stitched, I got my fixes fixed,
In my aching head, I got my kisses slit.
Our gossip lips stuttered every word I said, I said,
I got your love letters, corrected the grammar and sent them back.
It's true romance is dead, I shot it in the chest then in the head.

And if you wanna go down in history then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition.
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest...

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

I'm casually obsessed and I've forgiven death,
I am indifferent, yet (I am a total wreck)
I'm every cliche, but I simply do it best.

And if you wanna go down in history then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition,
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest...

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

(Go!)

I went to sleep a poet, and I woke up a fraud,
To calm your nerves I'm feeling for my clothes in the dark.

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

[Note: as usual, words in the cd case are different:
"I'm casually obsessed and >I'm the best yet<"

"And if you wanna go down in history then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way >baby<. I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition,
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest >seen<"]

Review about The Music Or The Misery

Hmm. | Reviewer: Angel. | 7/7/09

I disagree with the "emo" scene being behind the cliche part in this song. Geez, do you people have any depth?

He says cliche because many of their songs have classic phrases, and classic stories to them, but they have their own taste, and style to them.
For instance, "loose lips sink ships" is a classic phrse but FOB centers it into an amazing lyric.
"I'm standing outside your front window, oh this story's going somewhere."
How many stories / songs talk about being outside of someone's windows? But "I simply do and it best" is true because he turns it into something original and great.
They also use a lot of reference to old movies and actresses, books, etc.



What Hides Beneath The Ink | Reviewer: I Am A Total Wreck | 4/11/09

I think this song really represents how people see this band. I mean, Pete Wentz is always shown as the emo and the fag as most people call him. But he writes like all their lyrics. And if Patrick weren't so shy, he'd be the front man. Plus Pete's the oldest in the band, so I think this just kind of shows the cliche they've labeled this band. Fall Out Boy, I think is really unique, because all their lyrics mean something. It's not just a string of cuss words and talking about getting laid like most songs. They actually HAVE a meaning



. | Reviewer: Seána | 4/9/09

I love this song, I recently heard that Pete actually writes most of fall out boy's lyrics, which was a surprise, because up until now i just thought he was a self obsessed, useless decoration, but when I found this out, I listened to this song, assuming Pete wrote the lyrics, my interpretation of the song, is how people see Pete, that he's just in it for the fame, it just points out that everyone else is too, "It was never about the songs, it was competition". I also think it's about the whole "emo" scene and how people see it, that it's a terrible cliché these days, for posers and attention seekers, but it's just a bit of a fxck you xD people shouldn't give a shit. "I'm every cliché, but i simply do it best" bringing it back to pete, he's a camera whore, and a bit of an attention seeker, but he does do it best and he knows it.



Got your love letters corrected the grammar | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/11/08

I'm thinking it's about how people will get into last-ditch relationships when they're really falling apart. When you're famous, you naturally get lots of fans that say they're in love with you because a- they don't know you and you seem perfect from afar, b- their life is spiraling down and they need something to hold onto before they loose themselves.

At least that's what I got out of it.

my interpretation of music or the misery | Reviewer: eyeamu | 8/17/07

I believe that it entitles the fact of what goes down in the music business. Saying that, its true to say what really came first because was it the music that came from nothing or did misery make the music. On that note, it also entails how people are treated wether they are stars or nobodies.

why are they your favorite lyrics? do you know what they mean? im not trying to be critical because i don't know either but someone should definetly give their interpretation.
