Had to do some research for this one! Melpomene is the Greek muse of music and tragedy, as well as the mother of the sirens. Also in certain myths about her, she's tragic, because she had everything you could want in the world, but she still wasn't happy. Enjoy!
Lyrics: Verse 1: Broke my heart seventeen The stars carry a dream Where we stayed on our path I've seen things movie scenes he brings her a ring so was I just a fling? Pre-Chorus: I still wonder if you're out there Wondering gets me to nowhere What if you are better off without me? Now you're gone and I can only perform Chorus: Melpomene play me a melody You're forever my favorite tragedy You had the whole damn world Your happiness unfurled But now you say you cannot stay Melpomene Verse 2: I would say Anything if you would've stayed I let you get too close Pre-Chorus: You moved on just way too quickly I can't help but think that surely you might be a bit more sorry? now you're gone and I can't move on Chorus: Melpomene play me a melody You're forever my favorite tragedy You had the whole damn world Your happiness unfurled But now you say you cannot stay Melpomene Bridge: Distracted me with siren song I knew you couldn't hold on long What else was I supposed to do? Soft Chorus: Melpomene play me a melody You're forever my favorite tragedy Chorus: Melpomene play me a melody You're forever my favorite tragedy You had the whole damn world Your happiness unfurled But now you say you cannot stay Melpomene
