Melancholia

Once a valiant person, I have fallen into despair
Once a shining light, I have become a lifeless shell
Tortured by liars and scorned past what's fair
Each day spent breathing is a day spent in hell

Why do I try and still have to lie
Why do I try when they let me suffer
Why do I try and still have to lie
Why do I try when they make me hate myself

To this very day, I stand waiting for freedom
But I've become trapped in an endless circle of sadness
Nobody cares to free me, so I must endure or succumb
And hope that one day I will transfigure into the night

Do I alone hear this melody
Is it calling to me from the planet above
Am I the only one who feels it
The thing that will become the destroyer of worlds
I know that we're alone in the universe
and I know that our deaths will be quick
Do I alone hear this melody
Is this my key to being freed

Why do I try and still have to lie
Why do I try when they let me suffer
Why do I try and still have to lie
Why do I try when they make me hate myself
