    As someone who grew up in a very toxic relationship with a narcisistic mother and felt like I had to bend myself all the time to 'fit' her mold this song speaks to me in a whole different level. The line "Stretching my self worth, just like you usually do" is so so fucking relatable. I love Mel so much! She always write such deep and meaningfull lyrics.

    This is prob my #1 song in portals I literally keep coming back to it! To me, this song symbolizes being used, being used for someone else’s desire and pleasure. Honestly this song sounds like a people pleaser getting tired of pleasing others which kinda hit hard to me because I’m trying to stop pleasing others and it’s hard. Changing is hard but without change you’ll never grow. Also I’d like to say one last thing, you know how in k-12 Melanie and Angelita said stuff about being conjoined twins? They also said stuff about their parents selling them to a “freak show” so maybe this song is about how they get tired of being in that show? Idk it’s just what I think

      The song's official definition is twisting over backwards for someone who doesn't like you for being you, in other words Melanie in this case is "twisting all her limbs" for someone else, trying to change herself to fit their desires

    • @Luhvlaraa
      @Luhvlaraa ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I can relate to being a people pleaser and trying to overdo myself for others. I love to see people happy and I tried my best for them to feel really comfortable around me. And then I thought “Am I doing for this my own good, or for their good?” And it just changed my perspective of others. Yes, it’s hard to grow to put yourself as #1 but if you try, it will definitely be worth it in the end. Of course I care about others but putting myself first has definitely made an improvement on my self-esteem. I’m trying my best to not people-please and now I feel less exhausted and more superior and gentle with myself. (I just felt the need to say this hehe)💗🕯️

      Her music became slow, and her mask looks cheap, and her perfume honestly is even cheaper.
      People say that she wants people to forget about their trauma, but it’s like it’s more about her lore.

      ⁠ I understand, I have been a fan b4 everybody else though and I haven’t been rude but I’m simply not a fan of her new music; and same with all my friends.
      Her music became slow, and her mask looks cheap, and her perfume honestly is even cheaper.
      People say that she wants people to forget about their trauma, but it’s like it’s more about her lore.

    LYRICS:
    Twisted all my limbs for you
    Two of them in knots and two of them in loops
    Ribbons tied around like a noose
    Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
    I don't wanna bruise for you
    Holding back my words until my face is blue
    I don't really care about your crew
    You can tell 'em what you wanna do
    (Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
    (Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
    (Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
    (Bones are crushing, palms are crushing) Crushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
    Uh-ah
    I'm done, I'm done
    Done doing backbends
    I break and I snap, it's no fun, no fun
    Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
    I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    I'm done, I'm done
    Ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    Twisting all my bones like screws
    Stretching my self worth, just like you usually do
    Caught you like the cold or a flu (achoo)
    Praying that I'll someday be immune
    Got me like a bad tattoo (oh-oh-oh)
    Always under skin, even when it gets removed (ooh)
    Never got a chance to undo (oh-oh-oh)
    Positions that you forced my way into
    Bones are crushing, palms are crushing (pushin' me)
    Body's touching, body's touching (lovin' me)
    Blood is pumping, blood is pumping (pullin' me)
    Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing (fuckin' me)
    Bones are crushing, palms are crushing (crushin' me)
    Body's touching, body's touching (touchin' me)
    Ow
    I'm done, I'm done
    Done doing backbends
    I break and I snap, it's no fun, no fun
    Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun

    Melanie made a song for ALL the introverted awkward kids who are just a little too emotional. That’s why I love her. Its so nice to have a celebrity that makes me feel safe and heard. I love this song because changing yourself to fit someone else’s expectations on how a person should act isn’t a relationship, because they aren’t friends with someone if the other person isn’t their true self around them, because that person isn’t themselves so the person they care about doesn’t exist. “I’m done, I’m done.” It’s when you finally have a intervention with the person, you can’t stop or change yourself for them. So there isn’t need for a relationship when you aren’t even there for.

A true collaborative moment where we both felt the ping of our little antennas, like a loud phone call firing off. A lot of our process involved making tracks, then picking our favorites, then going into the booth and free styling
    Melodies, piecing together the best moments and then I would pace around the pool writing lyrics to fit the cadence of the free-styled melodies. The unhinged laughs in the chorus are the exact takes from my freestyle. This conflict song is about bending over backwards for someone who doesn't accept you as you are.

    Melanie Martinez's new album "Portals" is an absolute masterpiece! Her unique blend of hauntingly beautiful vocals and dark, whimsical production takes us on a journey through the depths of her imagination. Each song is like a portal into a different world, filled with emotion and depth. Melanie's ability to tell stories through her music is unparalleled, and "Portals" is a true testament to her artistry. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates innovative and thought-provoking music. Melanie Martinez has truly outdone herself with this stunning work of art!💗

    "Never got a chance to undo (oh-oh-oh)

    I relate to this a little bit. I was groomed twice. Once when i was little (On the internet) And I'm still being groomed atm by my cousin. I'm scared to tell anyone because I'm still young. And idk what they will say about it. or if they will even believe me. But he has tried to make me do things with him. and he has even done things to me when i was sleeping. I love how Melanie makes these songs though, it gives me strength. I love melanie❤

    My favorite song of the album. If not the best song the album has. Love how her old style is brought up and merges with her now new style. The classical aspect to it with the violins and then the pop side of the song as well, it acompanies melanies voice so perfectly. Playing out loud it sounds good, on earphones or a car with good bass it sounds absolutely amazing. So happy on how far she's come. Musically this is by far one of the best songs melanie has produced. This song will definitely be on repeat for a while!

    *Lyrics:*
    Twisted all my limbs for you
    Two of them in knots, and two of them in loops
    Ribbons tied around like a noose
    Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
    I don't wanna bruise for you
    Holding back my words until my face is blue (Ha)
    I don't really care about your crew
    You can tell 'em what you wanted to
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
    (Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
    (Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
    (Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
    Uh-ah
    [Chorus]
    I'm done, I'm done
    Done doing backbends
    I break and I snap, It's no fun, no fun
    Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
    I'm done, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    I'm done, I'm done
    Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    [Verse 2]
    Twisting all my bones like screws
    Stretching my self worth, just like you usually do
    Caught you like the cold or a flu (Achoo)
    Praying that I'll someday be immune
    Got me like a bad tattoo (Oh-oh-oh)
    Always under skin, even when it gets removed (Ooh)
    Never got a chance to undo (Oh-oh-oh)
    Positions that you forced my way into (Ooh)
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
    (Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
    (Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
    (Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
    (Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
    Oh, ow
    [Chorus]
    I'm done, I'm done
    Done doing backbends
    I break and I snap, It's no fun, no fun
    Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
    I'm done, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
    I'm done, I'm done
    Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
