'This Melody' lyrics

Maybe I saw too much too quickly. Maybe I led a sheltered life

Maybe they're right - I think too deeply. Maybe I'm wrong, can't win the fight

Reaction automatic, systematic, overload - that's it, I've had it

Gotta find a new way to combat it

So I'm about to switch it up right now

heed the sound

'Cos the sounds of war aren't the beat

that we need can't you see

how the people reach out, they're dying

And I don't believe what they told me

so cold, so do you know

can you show me another way?

Lift your hands, to the rhythm surrender

Feel my heartbeat, the sound, it moves us together

Feel the bond get just a little bit stronger

Dance like crazy just a little bit longer

Sing, and with my heart I'll create the beat and show you my love

Didn't they promise to take action? Didn't they say they'd save the world?

And wasn't I told this couldn't happen? Haven't we been betrayed by words?

I sang a happy tune when I was born, but now I'm torn

I can't live knowing every moment dreams are stolen

Got me searching for the beat that bred

this melody inside my head.

(CHORUS)

Listen

Everyone around world take heed, the third verse

Glowy layin' down the words speakin' out and getting heard

I'm a bit concerned thinking where has all the love gone?

feeling so disturbed every time I turn the news on

People starving, no water. One disaster, now another

and on top of all that we feel the need to hurt each other

I don't understand why we can't

unite and take a stand together

we need to demand a better world

and yeah, I know I'm just one girl

but if you doubt me look at will.i.am - he's just one man

and I know I can create change like he can

There's so much we could do so let's generate activity

look inside your heart and get rid of negativity

Take the lead, step up to the plate,

create a positive charge like static electricity

You take the tune, he'll be the beat, I'll write the rhyme

like Spike we'll do the right thing

Like lightening we'll take the world by storm

start one by one, til united we reform

So everybody in the club, gettin' down, feelin' buzzed

if you're feeling what I'm saying let me see your hands up

Move your body, move your feet in sync with my heartbeat

join me on the melody and show me your love
