“Melancholia” is a theme from the video game Xenoblade Chronicles X. It can be heard while starting up the game and choosing a Squad to connect to, just after the title screen.
[Verse 1: Aimee Blackschleger]
With this life, I'm exhausted
They are frozen, people's eyes
Kind of close to endless mental slavery
Always look up to the sky
Is this what I'm living for?
How can I spin this world better?
[Verse 2: Aimee Blackschleger]
Every place I used to live
All the news we used to hear
All the things we heard from you
Are almost making fun of me
Every day we work so hard
Every thing will never change
Every thing will never change
Every thing...
[Verse 3: David Whitaker]
Push forward, it's time to make the day yours
Push forward, it's time to make the day yours
See, it's not the cards that life deals
Anyone can alter situations
Push forward, it's time to make the day yours
Anyone can alter situations
They try to wear me down with what they tell me
I'm just trying to make moves, see beyond what they're trying to sell
Push for it, even if some attempts fail
Take problems mix 'em up like a cocktail
It's not the cards that life deals
Anyone can alter their situations by
Not sitting around, accepting the
Abuse and devastation
[Bridge: Aimee Blackschleger]
All of my life's begun to change you, until the end
Someone's death means
An indication of the new world
They hope won't be the same
[Verse 4: David Whitaker]
We're kept unheard if we're silent
Waiting on others to make a sound
Leads to walking blind instead of self-reliance
Eyes on the back of the pack
It's time to make the day yours
Complacency never makes an impact
Believe media controls you if you don't act
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
But when we speak, listen, and act
That's what we change
[Verse 4: Aimee Blackschleger]
There's a chance for me to find my way of life
Anyway I know some nervous strain of time
You cheer me, reminds me
There is a sun rise
You told me to save me from a hell on earth
[Bridge: Aimee Blackschleger]
All of the world's begun to take me into the sun
Hiding people getting out from crumbling shelter
Now the time has come today
[Outro: David Whitaker]
We're kept unheard if we're silent
Waiting on others to make a sound
Leads to walking blind instead of self-reliance
Eyes on the back of the pack
It's time to make the day yours
Complacency never makes an impact
Believe media controls you if you don't act
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
But when we speak, listen, and act
There's nothing that can't change
All things can change
