LYRICS
Welcome, won’t you come inside
Meet the ghosts where I reside
Despite how they’re abusing me
Lonely I will never be
Comfort in the hell I know
Resentment like a cancer grows
Longing for the day I’m free
Burn to get you out of me
Lying, supplying the need
Shedding and spreading the seed
Setting the trap with a thread
Spinning the web
Misery
She needs me
Oh, but I need her more
Misery
She loves me
Oh, but I love her more
Misery
She kills me
Oh, but I end this war
Misery
She fills me
Oh no, but she’s not what I’m living for
Ricochets within my head
Conversations never said
Magnifying every thought
That familiar pain she brought
Seeps inside eventually
Misery loves company
Sullen, I created youI suppose that I can end you too
She waits
She waits, she waits, she waits
She waits
She waits, she waits, she waits
Misery
She needs me
Oh, but I need her more
Misery
She loves me
Oh, but I love her more
Misery
She kills me
Oooh, but I end this war
Misery
She fills me
Oh no, but she’s not what I’m living for
Oh no
Oooh, misery
She needs me
But I need her more
She loves me
But I love her more
She kills me, she kills me
But I end this war
She fills me, she fills me
But she’s not what I’m living for
Oh no, oh no
No, no, no, no, no, no
Not why I’m living
Misery
She needs me
Oh, but I need her more
Misery
She loves me
Oh, but I love her more
Misery
She kills me
Oh, but I end this war
Misery
She fills me
Oh no, but she’s not what I’m living for
Misery, my misery
Misery, my misery
Misery
She’s not why I’m living
My misery
She’s not why I’m living
Misery
She’s not what I’m living for
My misery
No no

I love Robert, I honestly credit him for helping save Metallica after their lowest point in their career during the St. Anger era (I loved St. Anger btw). I think Rob helping encourage them to return to their roots from Death Magnetic forward, I remember hearing that he's responsible for Metallica playing songs live that they haven't played in years like "Call Of Cthulu". Rob is just a down to earth dude, such a loveable personality and he's a freaking beast on the bass! My love for Metallica will never die!

[@RickReasonnz]

Looove the bass in the middle of this. And yeah, Rob's fucking awesome. Loved him since I saw him crab-walking on the stage when he first joined the band.

@@luisamoa2500 Your comment is quite amusing, lol. You say the other person is not fan because they like the "new" stuff aswell. Yet with that comment, you sound more like a "poser" metalhead wannabe than a fan ironically. Of course everydody has their own tastes in music, but saying there is not good stuff after the Balck Album (which the 80's diehards also discredited at the time), means you have no taste in general, with all due respect. If it weren't for the "new" stuff, I would not be here. Thanks to that music I listened to in 96-98, I became a mega fan of their work.

[@lithering3189]

I really hope they release another album in the future, hopefully even more. But if Inamorata ends up being the last Metallica song ever released, I think it would be a perfect conclusion for the band. What a masterpiece.

[@snakeeyes9246]

If they speed up production to make one album every 3 or 4 years, we should get at least 3 more.

[@ned1621]

The only problem I've ever had with Metallica is the year's between albums. I suppose they don't need to but 6 and 8 years between albums, is ridiculous... There's surely thousands of Riffs in the vault, well we got a new one now thanks to Covid I reckon and it's gonna be a cracker. Fan since 86....

[@VlaDuZa]

I am relating to every single word in this song. It's comforting to know that someone like James and many other people feel the same towards their inner turbulence. I'm in a weird point in life, and the melodies of this song feel like Metallica are reaching out to me, giving me a tap on the back and being empathic towards my pain. The harmony part feels like opening a wound but immediately receiving a caress that says, "Hey man, it's ok that you feel that way. We know what it's like and it will pass.".

And then I started to feel it was like a tour for certain songs of their discography, until 9:23... I started to think of the emotions that my two favorite ending-section of a song make me feel everytime I listen to them: Fade To Black and Orion, and this just stood at its own. I will never EVER forget that the only way I could react was just stop walking... My mind was overwhelmed with these emotions that made me shed a tear. Thank you, Metallica.

@Jack Reid I disappear? lol....OK...you're entitled to your opinion. Kind of funny you talk about repetition and then use I Disappear as an example. This song is far less repetitious than that. And this one isn't even the best example on this album. The title track is pretty amazing and way more unique than I Disappear. My opinion of course. And one "snare sample"? It's called recording one snare DRUM. lol It's the way bands did it for decades. You know...actually mic'ing up a drum and using that sound. The drums sound really good on these songs. Nothing wrong with sampling drums but that doesn't make it a "flaw" if they don't do it. Just something that you don't like. Personally I think it's the best guitar work I've heard Kirk do in ages. Actual melodies. Again, you're entitled to your opinions, but your reasoning is pretty weak.

Man, there is so much hurt in these lyrics and in several of the other songs. Very heavy and emotionally painful to listen to when you relate so much to what's being said. Misery and depression can feel like home when you live in it for so long and it's hard to let go of. Happiness and joy can seem so foreign that your brain views it as a threat and tries to chase it away, leaving you in the safety of your own misery. That's what I take away from these lyrics anyway, and I've been there. Hope James is ok and is breaking away from it. Depression is a nasty enemy, but it can be overcome.

​@@alarmgoesdingThe song seems to be a lot more about how he chooses not to be miserable, because it will just eat him alive.

[@devinteichroeb3857]

I can relate to Hetfield's meaning directly; as I am going thru a long, heartbreaking split from my soulmate, and twin flame, of 10 yrs... we were divided and finally brought down by other people's Jealousy and hatred for what we had. It kind of hurts, listening to this

[@rishirahul6410]

One could interpret this song several ways, but i think that he’s talking about addiction and alcohol when he refers to misery.

[@sohamsircar8905]

I wanted a ballad in this album. This is the ballad of this album most definitely. And it is undoubtedly the best song from the album for me and one of the greatest songs Metallica has ever written. My friend has become my inamorata. What more can we ask for? Long live Metallica. Here's wishing for more music from you guys down the line.

[@randomreviews6207]

My Friend of Misery is in my opinion one of Metallica's most underrated gems. This song feels inspired by Misery...the lyrics certainly are. Then there is the solo....Sounds like they are cut from the same cloth. Love this song!!

That breakdown after he says, “Not why I’m living!” Is pure perfection!!!🤘🏼

[@gabrielescipioni864]

This brings me tears just as like To Live Is To Die. The section which starts after the scream "Not Why I'm living!" (feels to me like a scream of pain on a side and freedom on the other), it's just perfect, it's just like, "now it's time to let it go". And that's exactly the same feeling I get with the solo after the arpeggio in To Live Is To Die. I think Hetfield feels the loss of important persons in a very deep way, he suffers from the bottom. But in the end he can digest his own feeling so well he can sing about, finding a way to relief. Finding a way to tell the world that life can be shit, but you're gonna make it through. That fuckin' shakes me.

[@MrHornet05]

What I’ve heard from Metallica recently is at the same time old and familiar sounding and at the same time brand new and so exciting. It’s like remaking the acquaintance of an old friend to find he’s not forgotten you and is as loyal as ever. For me their new work is like drinking from the fountain of youth…….and it tastes so good. It’s magic and I’m proud to say I love Metallica. They’ve been in my life since I was 14 and I can’t imagine life without them. They have punctuated so many of the greatest times in my life, not just with their sound but their with their lyrics which depending on my mood I can always identify with.

I hope it's not their last album, it's a good album, but it's the first quite weaker metallica album. Most main riffs are very lazy and uninspired, and the composition in many songs is quite simpler than the vast majority of previous metallica songs, but I have to give it to James he really put an effort into the vovals, they are excellent and the vocal lines are so fun and overall just great.

@@JohnnyGalify Load, ReLoad and Death Magnetic are top, St.Anger is awesome awesome, with two issues, and Hardwired is a much better version of this album. Keep in mind my friends and I can't even make a difference between the different songs' riffs, that's how uninspired, characterless and lazy the riffs are. If I were to write the same riffs and put them out as instrumentals, I'd be shunned and maybe some dad rock enjoyers would like them at best.

[@obuffma]

I have to admit, this is one of the best pieces Metallica has ever put out. yes, and I mean that, despite them having a catalog that's over 40+ yrs with their most legendary pieces. This track hits so much more differently than anything else they had ever made before, this was Metallica doing something absolutely original. When this track ended, I was left speechless. And lets not even begin on that slow tempo, calm part where rob is playing a lick like burton did on Orion, with the harmonies just adding onto it. In a way, this song kinda felt like a dedication to Cliff as well, considering there were so many musical aspects in this song that you generally don't see in any of their other music. And yes, despite being 11 min long it still qualifies as one of their best. Brought to you by your local clinically insane Metallica fan

The combination of powerful vocals, intense guitar riffs, and intricate drumming creates an unforgettable experience. It's no surprise that this song has become a favorite for many fans, including myself. While listening to this song, I couldn't help but think of another underrated gem from Metallica's discography - "Bleeding Me". James Hetfield's raw and emotional delivery in that song is unparalleled, and it's a shame that it doesn't get the recognition it deserves. Overall, Metallica has proven time and time again that they are legends in the world of rock music. Their ability to consistently produce amazing music, even after four decades, is a testament to their talent and passion. Thank you, Metallica, for continuing to inspire us all.
