Melody

Melody chose me

And then Melody changed her mind

I should be over it now

But I ain’t over it now

That’s why I’d rather be lonely

Than be somebody’s wasted time

I should be over it now

But I ain’t over it now

They always gotta go when you want ‘em to stay

So it’s better not to love in case it’s taken away

“It’s alright, it’s fine - You will find in time”

This is what they say to the ones that stay behind

So Melody chose me

And then Melody changed her mind

I should be over it now

But I ain’t over it now

That’s why I’d rather be lonely

Than be somebody’s wasted time

I should be over it now

But I ain’t over it now

They always gotta go when you want ‘em to stay

So it’s better not to love in case it’s taken away

And just when you think you’ve got a foot in the door

Is the moment you see that she’s not there anymore

So why did Melody choose me?

If I’m not the choosing kind

Stop messing with my mind

I have felt what it feels like

To be chosen and then unchosen

And they always gotta go when you want ‘em to stay

So it’s better not to love in case it’s taken away

And just when you think you’ve got some skin in the game

And just when you think the tides are turning your way

And just when you think you’ve got a bird in the hand

It’s a shakedown, broken to a shell of a man

So why did Melody choose me?

Oh why did Melody choose me?

If I’m not the choosing kind

Stop messing with my mind
