'Possession' Lyrics: Melanie Martinez Drops Surprise Track to Start New Era
Melanie Martinez is back with new music!
The 30-year-old singer-songwriter returned on Thursday (January 29) with a brand new song, “Possession.”
Here’s how the official release describes the surprise “candy-coated gut punch”: “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.”
“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,” she declares.
This is her first song since 2023′s PORTALS, and centers around the singer feeling used as an object rather than a person in a toxic romance.
