Lyrics
Intro:
[Electronic beats and synths build intensity]
[verse]
You sing your way up to the depths of glory.
The flashlights knock you off your feet.
They still treat you like the same old story.
Your body’s a show, so, well, I’ll take a seat.
The attrition of your strength weights you down.
I have no grit so before you I bow.
Why do we waste our moments on something we will never have,
When it feels like none of us has ever loved enough?
[Chorus]
You are the melody of my demise,
A sweet sound inside me that never dies.
With bated breath I clear your mind.
I know you’re of a better kind.
I find you in your better sounds.
[break]
[verse]
Close your eyes to stupefy bleak senses.
Anyone would sell their lives to watch you dance to this
Suffocating motive of your melody.
Will you be the end of me?
You’re trying to pick your voice up from the ashes.
Allow me be the one to comfort you when it all crashes
You in small pieces. Can you believe this?
You are my small pieces.
No need to seek for my hand.
I’m already there.
[Chorus]
You are the melody of my demise,
A sweet sound inside me that never dies.
With bated breath I clear your mind.
I know you’re of a better kind.
I find you in your better sounds.
[break]
[bridge]
Your life is like a masquerade,
Your faces demonstrate dismay.
Don’t be afraid to scratch out my name
On the stone of your grave.
I invite you to sing your silent song on my funeral.
[Chorus]
You are the melody of my demise,
A sweet sound inside me that never dies.
With bated breath I clear your mind.
I know you’re of a better kind.
I find you in your better sounds.
[outro]
[fade to end]
I know you’re of a better kind.
I find you in your better sounds.
[end]
[end]
