This Melancholy Lie
[verse]
Depression whispers.
Has no plans to leave.
He sits with me.
Inflicts pain - I need relief.
I can't resist.
Don't have the try.
But I can't refuse.
This melancholy lie.
[chorus]
This heart is checking out.
My mind takes a dark dive.
A spirit wildly broken.
How do I survive?
This melancholy lie
Time slows.
Cracks show.
And all I know.
Don't wanna go.
[verse]
Time, it passes.
Isolated, but not alone.
Memories divided.
Good's gone, a forgotten tone.
Despair took hope.
And I fail to catch a breath.
Tears have dried.
This place feels like death.
[chorus]
This heart checked out.
My mind took a dark dive.
My spirit, wildly broken.
How do I survive?
This melancholy lie.
Time slows.
Cracks show.
And all I know.
Don't wanna go.
But I can't resist.
Don't have the try.
I can't ignore.
This melancholy lie.
[bridge]
I'm here,
And I am lost.
Help me survive.
Help me refuse.
This melancholy lie.
Please.
Help me.
Melancholy lie.
