Melancholy Lyrics - Murs

[Intro] 

Uh hi, everyone 

My name is Murs, and uh 

Yeah, I've had a rough couple years 

But uh, you know 

I guess I was depressed 

I don't feel depressed anymore 

Uh, you know I'm just at this point where I'm not too high 

And I'm not too low, I'm just here 

And that's okay 

And there's a word for that 

It's called 'melancholy' 

Yeah

[Verse 1] 

They say that happiness is a choice 

Well, I guess they get to choose 

Put all them so-called friends with they fake ass friends 

Ain't never been in my shoes 

Had my back up against the wall 

'bout to jump up off the edge 

Just paid for a shrink but she made me think 

That the problem's all in my head 

So with that said, I went solo 

On my own tryna face my fears 

I stopped, popped a pill, and it all got real 

So I started writing this right here 

And it took me years to get to this point 

Where I don't wanna die every day 

You can't put it in your mind to be down all the time 

'cause the sun go shine anyway 

Photos 

[Chorus] 

I been walking down this road, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

Blindfold, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

And it takes a toll on my soul 

Said it takes a toll on my soul 

Walking down this road, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

Don't mean to make you feel bad 

Because you think that I'm sad 

No need for you to feel sorry 

Bro, I'm just melancholy 

Don't mean to make you feel bad 

Because you think that I'm sad 

No need for you to feel sorry 

Bro, I'm just melancholy 

[Verse 2] 

Now I heard they call me crazy 

I just act like I can't hear 

But they ain't had it this rough or even lost as much 

As I did in just one year 

Have you ever had the feeling like you don't wanna die 

But like, wait, still not wanna be here 

That fog roll in and them days get dark 

And it start getting hard for you to see clear 

I know that pain too well 

I swear I been through hell 

If I don't smile, oh well 

Just worry 'bout yourself 

I tell 'em leave me 'lone, I'm just in my zone 

But some people can't take the hint 

When my life so strange, I been through so much change 

Why would I need yo' two cents? 

But everybody got they ideas 

On how to make my pain go away 

But opinions is just like a SoundCloud page 

Everybody got one these days 

So you can kill the interrogation 

'Cause you only wasting your time 

If you mind your business then I mind mine 

And everything gon' be just fine 

[Chorus] 

I been walking down this road, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

Blindfold, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

And it takes a toll on my soul 

Said it takes a toll on my soul 

Walking down this road, eyes closed 

Reaching for a future that I cannot hold 

Don't mean to make you feel bad 

Because you think that I'm sad 

No need for you to feel sorry 

Bro, I'm just melancholy 

Don't mean to make you feel bad 

Because you think that I'm sad 

No need for you to feel sorry 

Bro, I'm just melancholy
