Lyrics

It's such a lonely place to be
Inside my head subconsciously
A saboteur the voice that speaks
Undermining all I think is true that I hold dear
That keeps me from the brink of falling in
Just as the ocean laps the shore
That voice keeps knocking at my door
A noise that wakes me from my sleep
And into dreams the doubt it creeps
Until I wake afraid alone in the grip of something blue
Melancholy my enemy
Melancholy paralysing me
When popping pills won't cure my ill's
I help head shrinkers pay their bills
But what they say don't make much sense
Cos I don't dig false sentiment
Or keeping them in snazzy suits or driving Elon's new saloons
I'd rather pass the time of day
And find 100 different ways
To put my life in order with help from family sister brother
Self help books long walks hard workin'
Distract me from the voice that's talkin' blue
Melancholy my enemy
Melancholy paralysing me
Trying so hard to fit right in I force my lips into a grin
Despite the smile I'm aching
Tired of all the time it's taking me
to find the path that leads me to the place I yearn to be
And go where it may lead
Laughing smiling carefree talking
Autumnal walks some good old loving
A job a purpose independence living to a ripe old age
Just seems like such a fairytale
A foreign country a strange old place to be
Melancholy my enemy
Melancholy paralysing me
