[Verse 1] We used to dream of tomorrow's light Plans and hopes that felt so bright But somewhere along the way we lost The future's thread, we count the cost Stuck in loops we can't escape Same old patterns, same old shape [Chorus] Melancholia holds us down Repetition spins around Can't let go of what we've lost Death drive pays the highest cost Future's fading, can't move on The mourning process has gone wrong [Verse 2] Like a patient on the couch we lie Societies that cannot cry The trauma keeps us looking back Moving forward feels like lack What we loved has slipped away But we replay it every day [Chorus] Melancholia holds us down Repetition spins around Can't let go of what we've lost Death drive pays the highest cost Future's fading, can't move on The mourning process has gone wrong [Bridge] To mourn means letting go with grace Accept the loss and find new space But when we're trapped in endless loops The past becomes our prison groups The death drive pulls us to the past This melancholy cannot last [Verse 3] Freud would say we must work through The grief that keeps us feeling blue Transform the pain into new ground Where future hope can still be found Break the cycle, face the loss Only then we can cross [Chorus] Melancholia holds us down Repetition spins around Can't let go of what we've lost Death drive pays the highest cost Future's fading, can't move on The mourning process has gone wrong [Outro] Learn to mourn and learn to heal Make tomorrow something real Break the chains of yesterday Find a new and hopeful way
