Melancholy Heartbeat
Echoes of Unrequited Love: Madeline Juno's Melancholy Heartbeat
Lyrics
I know that is not what you wanted us to become
I am aware that our current situation is not what you desired for us.
You got my heart tied in a knot, everywhere I go
Your actions have left me emotionally entangled and affected wherever I go.
I see your face, I see your eyes, I'm paralyzed
Despite the separation, I constantly visualize your presence, feeling emotionally paralyzed when encountering memories of you.
And you don't even know that you follow me into the night
You unconsciously follow me into the darkness without your awareness.
And I'm confused with the roles I play
I'm uncertain about the various roles I'm fulfilling in this situation and struggle to determine the correct path to take.
Decide where's the right way to go
Feeling conflicted about the right direction to proceed.
I don't know, where's the helping hand?
Expressing confusion and a lack of support or guidance.
How long should I wait?
Expressing impatience, questioning the duration I should continue waiting.
How long should it take
Wondering about the appropriate time it will take to release myself from thoughts of you.
To let you go?
Questioning the duration required to finally move on from the relationship.
Oh, I would like to know
Expressing a desire to gain clarity about moving forward.
Can you hear my
Asking if you can perceive the sorrowful rhythm of my heart.
Melancholy heartbeat?
Reiterating the presence of a melancholic heartbeat.
Can you hear my
Continuing to emphasize the existence of a melancholic heartbeat.
Melancholy, melancholy heartbeat?
Restating the sadness in the heartbeat, connecting it to the subject.
Oh, it's beating for you
The melancholic heartbeat belongs to you.
Oh, it's beating for you
Reaffirming that the melancholic heartbeat is directed towards you.
I had plans, you took my hand
Expressing having aspirations disrupted by the involvement with the person.
You were much more than just a friend
The person held a significant role beyond just friendship.
You knew I was wreck
Acknowledging personal turmoil and distress.
I saw it in your eyes that night
Observing your recognition of my internal struggle during a specific night.
Who did you guess I was?
Asking who you perceived me to be.
But what did you think you'd need?
Questioning your expectations or requirements of me.
But where did you plan to go?
Uncertain about your intended destination or future plans.
How could you be so cold?
Expressing surprise or dismay at your emotional distance.
Can you hear my
Asking if you can sense the sorrowful rhythm of my heart.
Melancholy heartbeat?
Reiterating the presence of a melancholic heartbeat.
Can you hear my
Continuing to emphasize the existence of a melancholic heartbeat.
Melancholy, melancholy heartbeat?
Restating the sadness in the heartbeat, connecting it to the subject.
Oh, it's beating for you
The melancholic heartbeat belongs to you.
Oh, it's beating for you
Reaffirming that the melancholic heartbeat is directed towards you.
Hoh, hoh, hey-yeah-eh-eh
Vocalizations conveying emotional distress or sadness.
Hoh, hoh, hey-yeah-eh-eh
-Hoh, hoh, hey-yeah-eh-eh
-Hoh, hoh, hey-yeah-eh-eh
-Hoh, hoh, hey-yeah-eh-eh
-Hoh, hoh
