Melonchalia Lyrics by Joel Cossette

Songs About Anxiety. And Stuff.

2014

[Verse 1]
There's Hell inside these veins
And bluebirds in my ribcage
They wanna get out to sing
But my lungs are wearing thin
And there's melancholia inside my head
But I'm used to it
And having her around is kind of comforting
[Pre-Chorus]
I just want you to call
I just wanted to say the things I should've said
And I was hoping you could forgive me
And maybe I could do the same thing
I'll forgive myself
[Chorus]
And there's war inside my chest, and it leaves me stranded
And there's love inside my heart, but I don't see it
And there's a funeral procession inside my lungs
For the things I've done and the friends I've lost
I keep praying for hurricanes to take my guilt away
[Pre-Chorus]
I just want you to call
I just wanted to say the things I should've said
And I was hoping you could forgive me
And maybe I can do the same thing
Just want you to call
I just wanted to say the things I should've said
And I was hoping you could forgive me
And maybe I could do the same thing
[Chorus]
And there's war inside my chest, and it leaves me stranded
And there's love inside my heart, but I don't see it
