Bleeding Melodies

(专辑： Someone On The Internet - 2023)

Late Thursday night, I'm third in the set
'Bout to play for a crowd of only my friends and
From the side I scan a half-empty room
Guess some of them had better things to do

I take the free shot and put on a show
One more in the bag, a million to go
I can't believe how long I've been doing this
Screaming until somebody notices

Driving home, I lose it
Ask myself, "Why do I do it?"

I don't want to die
With this music inside of me
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed melodies

I don't want to die yet
I try and I don't succeed
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed melodies

Paid all my dues, yet still have my doubts
I honestly hope my parents are proud
I flirted with the idea of giving up
'Cause doing what you love shouldn't hurt so much

So I keep bleeding my feelings until I'm empty
I went from dreaming to bleeding
That shit got heavy
Tell myself I've been hoping you won't forget me
Forget me, ee ee

And what have I proven
Ask myself, "Why do I do it?"

I don't want to die
With this music inside of me
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed melodies

I don't want to die yet
I try and I don't succeed
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed melodies

I don't want to die
With this music inside of me
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed

I don't want to die
With this music inside of me
Go on, cut me open
I know I would only bleed

You can fail at what you don't want
So you might as well take a chance on doing what you love
