The notes chime to the tune of sorrow
The melancholic melody paints in hues of woe
Paints in hues of woe
Paints in hues of...

・・・

Pencil shavings shower the desk
Eraser marks marking the countless attempts
To rewrite the world
Reword the word
Redraw all the lines again, pretending it would work

Spinning silk of lies to sew up brand new truths
Throw out what doesn't fit and try on something new
Disregarded, crumpled up, and discarded to the floor
Coat the carpet, countless torn up sheets of former hops and dreams

I don't know
How this happened
How I got here in the end
And I don't know
How to stop it
How to stop this song in my head

The notes ring to the tune of sorrow
The melancholy melody
Paints in hues of woe
The twists and the turns,
Slashes marks and burns
Bathed in mellowed out reds and yellows
And yet no matter the time that passes,
Forever those colors stain the canvas
With grief and regret
And I just don't have what it takes to let go yet

・・・

Clouded whispers, murmurs so faint
To the point that one can hear them yet not know what they say
As I replay what was,
And try to reshape the dust,
I paste it all together,
Like that'll be enough

As it falls apart in my hands again
Pouring through the cracks of my words like sand

・・・

I don't know how to end it
When it happens yet again
And I don't know how to fight it
How to find the light at the end

The notes hum to the tune of sorrow...


The notes drum to the tune of madness
A self-fulfilling prophecy etched in shattered glass
The ups and the downs
Wishes burned to ground drowned in bitter black smoke and ashes
And through all of it, the years keep passing
Forever those marks live, everlasting
And though I have tried
I just don't have what it takes to say goodbye

A voice sings in the key of sorrow
Whose everlasting agony
Hides in hues of woe
The fake and the real
Things I used to feel
Bathed in mellowed-out reds and yellows
I keep on waiting
Like life is changing
Like maybe someday I'll be fixed magically
But, oh, that's just another lie
And I'll be living it until the day I die
