Cover art for Misery Loves Its Company lyrics by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, The

as far as I can tell, this band has a lot of Christian tendencies in their songs. I may be wrong but this is what I gather from their lyrics.

This song i think is talking about people who put others down for believing in God

The first two lines 'It's true, we are we are destined to fail' i think is saying that all men are sinners and that no one is perfect. the second verse is saying that society is blind and he's asking if he's the only one that can see that God is the right path to be taking in your life. The third paragraph is saying that he's been judged for his beliefs and he's taken a lot from people, (I agree with craigtom86, i think the line is "guide me through with your arm") and that God has guided him and shown him the right path. the next verse is directed toward non believers. the line 'Let your light shine through me' is asking God to let others see God and his wonders through him.'take this hate i can release' is just asking God to take away his hate and animosity towards others/past experiences away.

To me this song SCREAMS Christian lyrics... I could be wrong but thats what I got out of it. Love the song. any one agree/disagree???

I agree with you completely. It screams Christianity to me. And I think that 'misery loves its company' just goes to say that its a vicious cycle of all the hate and it just keeps gaining more and more bad things. Thats when i think he asks God for his help. Like people will always be accompanied by misery.

we have been forgiven of our sins through accepting the gift of grace through Christ :) remember? so just because we might sin doesn't mean we are sinners. and thanks to you I can understand this song and strengthen my relationship with God. 'cause yeah, I agree it screams Christianity esp. 'cause of the "let your light shine through me" part. I always had a hard time figuring out this song on my own. thank you so much! :) :D
