that melody

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

hold it in, please

everything seems so different

now

that I could sense things

I could reason out

almost even barely

still

I managed

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

hold it in, please

eventually I got it

hard to perceive at first

somehow

with the guts I mustered

I could breathe...again

slowly and carefully

I weaved my life

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

hold it in, please

you not here

surprisingly not that hard

even I am still taken aback

I rose, higher even

without you dragging me down

it is possible

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

hold it in, please

life is random

unnecessarily fulfilling

sometimes got me bewildered

rather got poisoned

took that guts out

I head on still

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

hold it in, please

was left alone

deserted

even isolated

sometimes unsure of what else to do

I turned back

praying for more hints

that melody

so familiar yet so far

so soothing yet so depressing

so harmonious yet so deafening

I could no longer hold

helpless , reckless

I was the one who backed down

long time ago

that wimp finally got out

emotional like never

it's okay, I still believe you.
