Lyrics Melancholy Blues - Tow'rs

Melancholy Blues

I used to think your teeth were just white curtains
Acts of optimism just to hide
I confused bitterness for enlightenment
I’ll admit that I’m still not satisfied
At least now I’ve seen
Now I see
You were only trying to light a candle
But I stood on the shore and cursed the night
Slowly unraveling a time when
I needed melancholy blues to keep going
Ooh, ooh
Yesterday you told me that you loved me
I wanted to ask if you knew what that means
My eyes have crossed feet and no less, as they’ve seen
It’s the prison box of what appears free
At least now I see
Now I see
You were only trying to light a candle
But I stood on the shore and cursed the night
Slowly unraveling a time when
I needed melancholy blues to keep going
