A World Without Melody Lyrics

I don't wanna live in a world without melody
Sometimes a rhythmic din of society is too much for me
But purpose is prioritized
These days the goal is win the prize
There's a sleeping resonance
We hold through which we're unified

So let it out
Don't just get lost in the crowd
No one can deter you from your own death
There's no trip too remote from which you can't come back
And I got this hunch about you and me
None of us are ready for a world without melody

(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It will set you free

Don't disrelish harmony, community will make you whole
Work and understanding are the chords way deep within your soul
They only need to be struck once
And the vibrations swell and spread
But if we mute them they decay
Our sensibilities are dead

So let it out
Don't just be one of the crowd
Hesitance and diffidence will do you in
And your soul doesn't care for social medicine
And I've got this hunch about you and me
None of us are ready for a world without melody

(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It will set you free
(Melody)
And I know together we could change the world
(Melody)
Just you and me
(Melody)
But I won't live without melody
