"POSSESSION" lyrics
"POSSESSION"
I hit my head real hard, I woke up in a jar
On top of his blue metal shelf full of trinkets
He dusts me off each day, I'm made of porcelain clay
I feed him kisses so I don't break down to pieces
And now he's hungry, I feed him candy
He's screamin' at me loud, screamin' at me loud, screamin' at me loud
Baby, I'm your possession, handle me like a weapon
Gaslight me right, tell me, "Keep quiet"
I'll go along, di-di-dum
Put me up like a prize, I'll be a good housewife
You won't see me cry when women come by
I'll go along, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di, dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
He leaves me all alone, from dusk to fuckin' dawn
I'll clean up after all his shit, I'm the housekeeper
He comes home drunk at night, of course he picks a fight
I try my best to bite my tongue, but it keeps bleedin'
How could he love me if he won't see me?
Crying with a knife, wanna take my life, never treats me right
Baby, I'm your possession, handle me like a weapon
Gaslight me right, tell me, "Keep quiet"
I'll go along, di-di-dum
Put me up like a prize, I'll be a good housewife
You won't see me cry when women come by
I'll go along, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di, dum, di-di-dum
Dum, dum, dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum, di-di-dum
Took the keys and left, drove into a tree
Walked around for a minute, people starin' at me
Concussion, reversin' all the damage I had
I may be bruised, but it's not that bad

She teased the track on Instagram with a snippet and a cover art work she posted on social media two days prior and the chorus' lyrics she posted one day prior to the release.
This song is Melanie Martinez's first new music since the release of her album "Portals" in 2023. According to a press release, "POSSESSION" has the following description, "With razor sharp lyricism tucked inside glossy melodies, the track peels back the ways power can masquerade as love. The song is haunting, satirical and spotlights Melanie's trademark blend of charm, mischief and bite. Welcome to Melanie Martinez's new world order – Cry Baby is dead."

Hey Violet - "Hoodie" You'd probably think I was psychotic (If you knew)

It makes me feel a little bit closer...
Ayesha Erotica - "Hollywood Dream" So you came to L.A. with a dime and a dream

Mitski - "Me And My Husband" I steal a few breaths from the world for a minute
And then I'll be nothing forever

But me...
