Melody
Charlie & the Soap Opera Lyrics

I feel I shouldn’t need to tell you
I believe it should be understood without me explicitly stating

That just ’cause you can do what you want
The fact that you have the ability to do whatever you desire

It doesn’t mean that you should
Does not imply that it is the right thing to do

And just because the law tells us we’re grown ups now
Merely because legal regulations consider us adults

It doesn’t mean you should allow yourself
Does not mean you should permit yourself

To act without thinking harder first
To engage in actions without deeper consideration

And I’m not saying I’m better than you
I am not asserting my superiority over you

In so many ways you are superior to me
In numerous aspects, you surpass me

No I’m just saying that I’m learning from you
I am simply expressing that I am gaining knowledge from you

And learning from your mistakes
And acquiring wisdom from your errors

Saves them from happening to me
Prevents them from occurring in my own life

All I want is to be honest with you
My sole desire is to be truthful with you

And say that just because I’m not involved
To clarify that my lack of participation

Doesn’t mean I’m not affected
Does not imply that I am unaffected

I tend to stay out, but I can’t help but rue
I usually refrain, yet I cannot help but feel regret

Because I know you’ve got your head on
As I am aware that you are thinking clearly

And it’s just not what I expected
Yet, it does not align with my initial anticipation

And I would give up my sight
I would sacrifice my ability to see

To know love like the love you have at home
In order to experience a love as profound as the love you possess within your household

This is my melody for melody
This composition represents my dedication to expressing my thoughts about melody

I’d already forgiven you completely
I have already granted you full forgiveness

Please don’t regret what you did today
I kindly request that you do not feel remorse for your actions today

Thanks for awkwardly hugging me so sweetly
I am grateful for the genuine yet slightly uncomfortable embrace

And thanks for making my holiday
And I express appreciation for making my vacation memorable

I know you’re smart at least to make up nice and quickly
I am aware that you possess intelligence, especially when it comes to reconciling gracefully

But I’m unsure about what’s really going on in 45D
However, I remain uncertain about the true nature of events in apartment 45D

I’ll just sit back and relax, I’ll try to sleep, and ponder
I will simply recline and attempt to find relaxation, while contemplating

Every word you might be saying and decide if I agree
Each statement you utter will be analyzed to determine if I concur

With the points about love, that you’re making in my head
Particularly regarding the ideas you are expressing about love within my thoughts

Should I judge you, or use it to analyse myself instead
Should I form an opinion about you, or should I introspect using it as introspective material

Are you even talking about what I’ve guessed
Are you actually discussing the topic I have presumed

Or should I plug myself back in and try and get some rest
Or should I disconnect from this line of thinking and attempt to sleep

All I try is to be honest with you
All I strive for is to maintain honesty with you

I’ll say that you’re a friend and without us
I will express that you are a friend, and without our connection

There’d be a lot less here of me
There would be a significant absence of my presence

But I’m unsure if we share the same view
Yet, I am uncertain if our perspectives align

I’ve told you what I’m thinking
I have communicated my thoughts to you

But you’re yet to tell me if we agree
However, you have not yet disclosed if we share agreement

And all I want is a girl
And my sole desire is to find a girl

Who will love me, like she loves you
Who will love me with the same intensity that she loves you

This is my melody for melody
This composition represents my dedication to expressing my thoughts about melody

I’d already forgiven you completely
I have already granted you full forgiveness

Please don’t regret what you did today
I kindly request that you do not feel remorse for your actions today

Thanks for awkwardly hugging me so sweetly
I am grateful for the genuine yet slightly uncomfortable embrace

And thanks for making my holiday
And I express appreciation for making my vacation memorable
