From the recording Seeing Red
Lyrics
MELANCHOLY MIND
Loneliness will always be the truest love of all for me
Melancholy and my mind, lovers ‘til the end of time…
Hello my dearest, bluest friend
Welcome to my soul
It’s no surprise you’re here again
to shatter what was whole
Comfort broken on the ground
Fragments of the past
What was lost was somehow found
I knew it wouldn’t last
Damn you, my love, to loneliness and pain
Damn you, my love, I curse your bitter name
The pain grows deeper still, I cry to the Heavens above
Tears that choke and kill, so, damn you, my love
I don’t believe in fairy tales
Or legends of the night
Reality, when all else fails,
It bathes the truth in light
Thought I recognize the face I see
It never feels the same
I know that now it comes for me
Solitude, it’s name
Damn you, my love, to loneliness and pain
Damn you, my love, I curse your bitter name
The pain grows deeper still, I cry to the Heavens above
Tears that choke and kill, so, damn you, my love
Hello my dearest, bluest friend
Welcome to my soul
