Trying to understand complex subjects… one failure at a time.



So, I really like this song, but…

I’m not sure about how I sing the second half of it. It sounds wonky, (ahh… I mess up the melody.) I still need to practice and experiment to find the right notes and tones for each section. Also, I could cut a few lines, it’s long. (Oh… sorry, my kids were packing things in the background. There’s noise.)

Melancholy Dysmorphia

Verse 1:  

Drowning in debt, chained by the ring  

An endless loop, the sorrow it brings  

Dreams all abandoned, left out to decay  

Love’s shattered union, drifted away 

In suffocating love, the same breath of pain  

Wrapped in his arms, feelings restrained  

Chorus:

Melancholia dysmorphia, mirror’s cruel deceit  

She battles her reflection, feeling incomplete  

Each touch a reminder, every bite that she takes  

She’s never who he wanted, her heart constantly breaks 

Verse 2:  

They view her beauty, she can’t see her worth

Wastes away to nothing, feeling like dirt

Inhales deep, tears flow from her eyes

In silent despair, voice cracks as she cries

This stagnant air, barely keeps me alive

Choking, gasping, bound to tricks of her mind

Chorus:

Melancholia dysmorphia, mirror’s cruel deceit  

She battles her reflection, feeling incomplete  

Each touch a reminder, every bite that she takes  

She’s never who he wanted, her heart constantly breaks 

Bridge:  

Is she pretty or valuable, all these things she’ll never know  

His gaze wanders, and every chance he strays  

He spends all her money, while she’s trapped in a daze

Praying for clearer weather, but there’s always more rain 

Verse 3:  

Eroding stability, slowly tearing it apart  

All built on her back, with a heavy heart  

She longs for peace, no games in the dark  

But he feigns love, leaving deep scars 

Oppression weighs heavy, to chains that bind  

Her spirit’s been crushed, and freedom confined  

In shadows, she fights to find  

A way to break free, to leave it all behind 

Chorus:

Melancholia dysmorphia, mirror’s cruel deceit  

She battles her reflection, feeling incomplete  

Each touch a reminder, every bite that she takes  

She’s never who he wanted, her heart constantly breaks 

Outro:

In shadows, she fights to find  

A way to break free, to leave it all behind
