You can listen
To Melanie Martinez
All you want
Yet you have no idea what her words mean
Where her sadness comes from
You think she's pretty and pink
Plush and Precious
Girly girl's dream
You're too young to know she's the opposite
She's sadness
She's teenage depression
She is me
In each of her songs
From crybaby
To Orange Juice
She sounds good to you
She sounds lovely to you
She has meaning to me
The lyrics you bob your head to
Are more than words
But days in high school
You know nothing about
Moments at the lunch tables
You know nothing about
You don't get Melanie
You smile to her music
You don't get Melanie
I hope you never will
XOXO
