"You start in the womb, You end in the tomb" -Mel ( K-12 film)

i don't believe there are "fans" who unfollow melanie because of this new era and aesthetic. Melanie worked at this for years, putting every bit of her into it only to be dismissed like this. I should be grateful to melanie for literally changing my life and teaching me so many lessons. I love melanie and she will always be in my heart ♡♡

I'm a person who's very afraid of death but for some reason this album has made me see it in a different perspective now, especially with this song, kinda makes me feel that I should embrace it instead of fearing it

This is gotta be Melanie's best era for me, because i just love the overgrown, cottagecore, weirdcore, and otherworldly aesthetic she has going on.

I’ve been listening to Melanie for years and there have been changes on her music, but I have never doubted her work because she always manages to make something incredible no matter what style it is, I love her so much she’s my favorite artist ever since I found her Edit: just if anyone’s curious, I’ve been listening to Melanie for about 7 years now :]

No because the way Womb ends with "is life is death" on repeat is amazing because it's talking about the womb which is the life, and then Death starts with the same "is life is death" on repeat representing the death part. The best part is that Death is the first song and Womb is the last so when you're finished listening to Womb it basically continues into Death, when the playlist starts over, which is amazing.

Have you guys noticed this album starts with Death and finishes with a Birth? Because it's the cycle of reincarnation. This is why it starts with "Life is death, is life..." and finishes with it too, so it would be a big cycle of listening the album over and over, like lives we have.

Correct Lyrics from Melanie’s website⬇️ A seed in mother And I chose that space for me Little does she know it ’s free Oooh yeah I’m undercover As they wait for joy, I cry On a mission, learn and die Oooh yeah And I know my brother He’ll make the journey later on Conversations in the cosmos yeah And it’s all a game now But once I’m in the world it’s lost Memories gone to evolve Oooh yeah Merging cells and flesh I’m baby building All my insides Right to see the future right before my eyes I know what’s coming, what’s coming In the womb get me out now, safe and I’m sound Cut the cord, I’m comin Out the blue, belly water too, hot and cold Through with it oh now she’s birthing Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I’m pushing out the center, the core I’m swimming through the flower no more no more All of the planning, yet I still feel unprepared Kicking, screaming cuz I’m scared Oooh yeah And I know she suffers, contractions of hell and death Eyes are bloody screaming out Oooh yeah Merging spirit, mind, and body Building all my insides Right to see the future right before my eyes I know what’s coming, what’s coming In the womb get me out now, safe and I’m sound Cut the cord, I’m comin Out the blue, belly water too, hot and cold Through with it oh now she’s birthing Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I’m pushing out the center, the core I’m swimming through the flower no more No more Life is death, is life, is death, is life, is

fucking love how the album starts with the loop & ends with it, she’s a fucking genius

Lyrics: Ah, ooh Ah, ooh I see the mother in the chosen space for me Little does she know it's free, oh yeah-ah I'm undercover, as they wait for joy I cry On a mission in the dark, ooh, yeah-ah And I know my brother He'll make the journey later on Conversations in the cosmos, yeah-ah And it's all a game now But once I'm in the world, it's lost Memories gone to evolve, ooh, yeah-ah Merging cells and flesh I'm baby building all my insides, bright to see the future Right before my eyes I know What's coming, what's coming In the womb, let me out Not safe but I'm sound Cut the cord, I'm comin' Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it All I know she's birthin' Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I'm pushing out the center, the core I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more All of the plannin' Yet I still feel unprepared Kick and screamin' 'cause I'm scared Ooh, yeah-ah And I know she suffers Contractions with howling death Eyes are bloody, screamin' out, ooh, yeah-ah Merging spirit, mind and body Building all my insides, bright to see the future Right before my eyes I know What's coming, what's coming In the womb, let me out Not safe but I'm sound Cut the cord, I'm comin' Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it All I know she's birthin' Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I'm pushing out the center, the core I'm swimming through the flower no more, no more Life is death is life is death is life, is-

True fans respect her right to change her aesthetic as she pleases. Evolution is a healthy and positive thing, and I’m so excited to see Mel walking new paths 🌹

My heartaches with how beautiful this whole album is I’m so happy she’s grown and healed ~ she deserves to be safe in her own form

This song gives you such a nostalgic feeling that you just died. You're in the womb and someone is giving birth to you during a beautiful event of sun rise beginning. Life goes by like a blink of an eye, you're grown up enjoying your life and diving a car down the highway, catching the sunset.

I’ve been here since dollhouse, I remember sitting in my room blasting Dollhouse while my parents fought. Those first songs got me through a lot, I’m so happy for this new era!!

I’m so proud that’s she continues to express herself so confidently. As a fan since late crybaby I just want to express how proud I am of her. She’s such a realiable artist because no matter what you know it’ll be original, beautifully done and so far pink haha!

Ah, ooh Ah, ooh I see the mother in the chosen space for me Little does she know it's free, oh yeah-ah I'm undercover, as they wait for joy I cry On a mission in the dark, ooh, yeah-ah And I know my brother He'll make the journey later on Conversations in the cosmos, yeah-ah And it's all a game now But once I'm in the world, it's lost Memories gone to evolve, ooh, yeah-ah Merging cells and flesh I'm baby building all my insides, bright to see the future Right before my eyes I know What's coming, what's coming In the womb, let me out Not safe but I'm sound Cut the cord, I'm comin' Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it All I know she's birthin' Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I'm pushing out the center, the core I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more All of the plannin' Yet I still feel unprepared Kick and screamin' 'cause I'm scared Ooh, yeah-ah And I know she suffers Contractions with howling death Eyes are bloody, screamin' out, ooh, yeah-ah Merging spirit, mind and body Building all my insides, bright to see the future Right before my eyes I know What's coming, what's coming In the womb, let me out Not safe but I'm sound Cut the cord, I'm comin' Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it All I know she's birthin' Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life I'm pushing out the center, the core I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more Life is death is life is death is life, is-

STREAM WOMB FOR MOTHERS DAY❤❤(BOOST THIS❤)

I'm imagining how this music video will connect to DEATH

Start in the womb and end in the tomb. We’ve been with crybaby since beginning- ever since their birth and now they’re reborn. I love this album so much😌. Thank you Melanie. I know this is the third part of crybaby’s trilogy and this is very bittersweet🥲

I'VE STAYED UP ALL NIGHT TO WITNESS THE EPITOME OF ART AND I'M CRYING SOBBING SCREAMING HYPERVENTILATING OVER THIS ALBUM RN!! EVERY SECOND OF IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT FOR 4 YEARS!! MELANIE'S ARTISTIC VISION AND CREATIVITY IS JUST UNMATCHED AND SHE'S THE TRUE DEFINITION OF AN ARTIST. IT WAS A ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS AND WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS HOW PROUD AND EMOTIONAL I AM RIGHT NOW. *PORTALS IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW! KEEP STREAMING ALBUM OF THE YEAR*

I like how over the years the albums seemed to begin talking about children and their struggles (hinting to Melanie's past too) And then getting to highschool talking about the first love and other problems with society and everything, and then there was the bakery and everything where u feel like it's in adulthood talking about life's meaning and accepting yourself and stuff and getting philosophical, and now we're here at the death and rebirth and then the cycle continues and I believe this is in itself an art form. And how the art and aesthetic changed throughout the years starting from cutsy vintage fashion clothes slowly sliding twords magic, weird core, and disturbing scenery, and fantasy creatures. There's no cutsy dress anymore no baby doll aesthetic because the standards have changed. You're the judge of your own life and now that you've spent all your youth trying to break from the social norms you can finally blossom into a beautiful flower but ultimately life itself with all it's goods and it's bads and it's creepy and it's lovely with keep on going. And you can't sorrow about it forever.

IM SO EXCITED FOR THE FULL ALBUM THIS SONG IS A MASTERPEICE

im so proud of her, finally she's back, i remember listen cry baby album with 11 years probably and now im here give all my support in a new album many years later, thanks for everything melanie 🥺💕

this is literally the best song in the album, the 'feeling alive' gets me everyday. i love the beat, it matches the singing so much, when it gets to the the chorus the beat is just amazing, keep you good work up. i love your new era so much, of course i'll miss cry baby, but this era is so amazing. it's probably very difficult to go from one aesthetic from another, but you did it perfectly. i have loved you since i saw the dollhouse music video years ago, you have grown so much.

The transition from womb to death, her first song makes me feel like we have a new arch coming, crybaby diedx was reborn into out beloved nypmh, and then the nymph died, which this song is melanies possible new charcter being in the womb currently

it’s so crazy how this song matches so perfect with death, like the ending like melts into the beginning of death

Melanie never fails to make a musical masterpiece, I start levitating whenever I hear they’re voice.

I love how Womb transitions back to Death but did you realise that all albums (Crybaby, K-12, etc) all connect with each other? This symbolises that “Crybaby” will have this journey again and again - Dying, awaking in a new form, in the womb. Melanie said: “Womb was written from the perspective of entering a new form/lifetime. The feeling nerves and excitement that arise when you’re about to forget everything you know about your true self as a soul in order to let your human experience on earth move your profession forward.” I really like this song because the tune reminds me of a game show (So random but yeah) and it just gives you a visual of Melanie in the womb and how she feels. 🤍🕯️

This is easily one of her best songs to date

I don't care how much she changes I love this woman and honestly this has to be the best song on the album

At first I saw her album without context and I didn’t like it, I was even disappointed but the other day I gave it another chance and realized it’s meaning and I started to love it just how I loved crybaby and k-12❤❤❤

"You've had many bodies before this, and you'll continue to have more. You're immoral." the angel (i forgot her name)

As someone whose been a fan since 2016-2017 im really happy melanie is exploring new styles and music. It makes me feel proud because ive never once doubted her choices. And although i may miss crybaby, im really excited for this new character!

This made me cry in the concert

GUYS THIS SONG WAS ON THE RADIO WHERE I LIVE!!!

THE ALBUM IS OFFICIALLY OUT YALL MELANIE WE LOVE YOU, IVE BEEN THERE SINCE DAY ONE U HELPED ME THRU SO MUCH I LOVE YOU

Melanie’s ability to delve into complex concepts so elegantly will forever be my favorite quality of hers. She’s able to conceptualize the birthing process to greater lengths. She’s provided me with a different outlook of life and death and how are physical forms are temporary vessels for us to gather higher knowledge. I will forever be grateful for her insight and work of art. Also can we talk how this song is the perfect way to end an album? Once again, thank you mel for another masterpiece 💗💗

melanie: when i will start releasing unperfect songs? everyone: thats the fun part, you don't

the ending looping to the beginning of death… this woman is such a genius

QUE HICE PARA MERECER QUE TODO EL ÁLBUM SE LIBERARA JUSTO AHORA, DIOS ERES GRANDEEEE

MELANIE YOU ARE A GENIUS, the loop of womb and death representing that life and death go together, it also explains why death starts with "They're carving my name in the grave AGAIN" don't mind me casually fangirlling

I love that wierd-fairycore aesthetic, it happend to be weird at first but i LOVE IT SO MUCH it is so much Melanie style that I couldn't care less, what is important the most right now is that Melanie is happy about who she is and I am not complaining, couse her music is great and still I can somehow relate and feel everything. ♡ Who's with me then I'll wait in comments :3

I'll never understand why I'm crying from this beautiful song. it's not even a song, it's something most emotional. It cannot be expressed in words 🪷

Every time I hear the last part where she says “is life, is death…” makes me want to listen to DEATH and the entire album again

BOTON PARA EXPRESAR LA FELICIDAD QUE DA ESTE ÁLBUM 😭💞

I never hear anyone talking about womb and imo its one of the best on the album

I love that she’s incorporated more guitar and bass in this album

This album is exactly what I needed at this time in my life. Im about to become an adult and its scary knowing in a few months Ill have to take that leap that I feel like Im not ready for. This song reminded me that the end of my childhood doesnt just have to be the death of something, it can also be a rebirth. Thank you Melanie 💕

WOMB I knew I wanted the album to end on the title "WOMB." This was one of the earliest songs written in 2020. Had a session one day with Omer Fedi as part of a week of sessions I had with different people. Omer started playing these guitar chords that were so beautiful, I asked him to play it on loop while I stared at the corner of the room quickly writing lyrics. CJ and I had Rhys come in and record live drums around 2 years later to complete it. This song was written from the perspective of entering a new lifetime. The feeling of nerves and excitement that arise when you're about to forget everything you know about your true self as a soul in order to let your human experience on earth move your progression forward. - Melanie Martinez

Many people think that the line referencing her brother means crybaby's brother but I'm pretty sure it's her real brother. I say this because in the crybaby album, crybaby's brother was born before her making him older so I'm positive she's talking about her biological brother. This song reminds me of the feeling of anticipating about something but also having those doubtful, anxious overthinking moments that kinda make you second guess yourself.

Am I the only person here that has this as my favourite song (as well as nymphology) on the album? It's so good

Botón para expresar la felicidad del regreso de Melanie y de su nuevo álbum❤

THIS ALBUM DID NOT DISSAPOINT, I LOVE YOU MELANIE 😭

I'm obsessed with the guitar in this song please I love this new era so much

Womb is literally birth. It's interesting though, because the idea of the song is analogous to the movie Soul, which is nice. Think about being a soul that reminisced through everything good and bad about their past life like a slideshow in an empty theater. And then being unprepared for the world, like a SAT exam, but for souls. Then your slideshow gets put in the recycling bin after the test like *wee.* It's been fun typing my interpretations for this album, hope y'all have your own to share, it'd be great for me and for others. 🎉

Yo crecí con melanie desde que fuí una pequeña con problemas por parte de mi entorno ... sus temas eran un alivio que me sacaban de mi agujero Y con el paso de los años aún escuchar sus temas son mi lugar seguro❤

This has to be my favorite track in the whole album. The guitars feel so satisfying and Mel's vocals scratch the right places in my brain perfectly. I love her for this whole album and I'm so proud to be able to hear her musical transition to this new style as well as her personal healing

"feeling alive" bro that part is fire 🔥

I love how PORTALS starts with one of her most sorrowful songs (DEATH) and ends with one of her most optimistic (WOMB) it really feels like a journey of growth and evolution ✨️

DONDE ESTÁN LOS FANS LATINOS DE MEL?? Botón para hacer ver nuestra presencia ✨

ESTOY OBSESIONADA CON LO DULCE QUE SUENA SU VOZ AQUÍ 😭😭 te extrañé tanto Mel

Maybe Angelita hinted something.. when they where climbing up the stairs crybaby said “ I wonder why people are so afraid of death” Angelita says “ you start in the *womb* you end in the *tomb* ” and later in the k-12 movie she said they can be conjoined twins, it could explain why Melanie has another pair of eyes

0:00 to 0:10 sounds like the birth sence in Cry Baby MV 🫣

I like how so far the songs from her new era have had more of a rock type of feel

Prepárense porque se viene Álbum del año!

Guys this is amazing..I’ve been listening to Mel since I’ve been soo young

Portals is officially my favourite melanie album ever

This album deserves a lot of recognition!!

MELANIE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND YOUR FANDOM TOO, I HOPE YOUR ALBUM GETS THE FAME IT DESERVES💕 𓋼 Ⱄ𖤣𖥧ⱄ𖡼

This song is amazing. The lyrics, instrumentals, voclas are just golden. My life has changed since i found about Melanie. Whenever I feel depressed or sad /Sucidial i always listen to her. She's the only artist that gave me a reason to live.

This song is one of the most underrated on the album and it's sad

Estuve desde Dollhouse y ahora, me emociona tanto ver los cambios. JODER QUE BUEN ALBUM, AME, MEL NUNCA DECEPCIONANDO♡♡♡

Botón para saber lo hermoso que canta Melanie

most underrated song in the album, such a banger

THIS SONG IS WHAT YOU CALL UNDERRATED ITS SO GOOD AND MELANIE HAS COMD SO FAR SHES EVOLVED NOT JUST IN HER VOICE SHES EVOLVED AS A PERSON! ❤

Amo esto, la estética, la temática, como se escucha la voz d Mel, todo! Estoy tan contenta x esto

Amo que melanie haya evolucionado pero sin perder su estilo 💓✨🧚

"You start in a womb and end in a tomb" - CryBaby, During K12 era.

Her song like at begining they are silent but then the beats are so fuvking loud i enjoy them everytime LIKE SERIOUSLY

Dios amo la nueva estética de melanie es perfecta 🍄🕯️🧚

Despues de tantos años, escuchar a Melanie con un concepto distinto, con sonidos tan distintos a los que ya acostumbradamos se siente tan refrescante, como cuando estaba escuchandola por primera vez hace unos años

what they’re not understanding is crybaby is Mel when she was 19 years old. The fact that people are arguing and fighting for someone who is well into her 20s to continue to make music and act like she’s 19 for their comfort is weird. She’s growing into herself. she’s growing not only as an artist but as a woman, and she has the right to expressed that. But people saying “oh I’m not following you because of how your music is evolving and I’m on comfortable with the new look “ already tells us that you were a fan conditionally, because if you truly loved an artist, you would watch them go through the different phases of their life you may not like every single phase. You may not connect to all the music in every single phase, but to outright say you are no longer a fan of them, because they are growing up and changing is a problem. They’re asking her to keep the mentality of a 19-year-old for them

3:21 in the K-12 movie Angelita and Crybaby were having a conversation and it ended with one of them saying, “you start in the womb and you end in the tomb.” And in DEATH in the beginning, there is a voice that says “death is life,” so on and so forth. And the same thing happens at the Enzo of this song. At: 3:21 you can hear the same voice. Just to let everyone know, you start in the womb and you end in the tomb:)

the whole album better play at my funeral or else i’m not dying!

I just wanna say: what can this amazing woman not do?!?!?! I mean, COME OOOONNN. She is literally sooo creative with the messages in her song. I have been listening to her since middle school. She is so blessed 🥰🤭

This is so beautiful, amazing work on the rithms, letters, visualiser, notes, idea, is so beautiful

My 12yo daughter introduced me to Melanie and she’s amazing! Now we are going to her concert together. She’s a lyrical genius! ❤

Voy a disfrutar escuchar todo el álbum ahora, definitivamente agradezco el no haberme dormido todavía

Ya tenemos el álbum completo Melanie?? O aún nos sorprenderás con algo?? 😻 Que maravilla haber nacido en los tiempo de Melanie diosa 🙏🥰

Love this song! People who unfollowed you because of you're new aesthetic aren't true fans. Thanks for another great album!

I love this song. It’s the ‘merging cells’ part that starts to connect to me. I’m doing this song with my dance class in front of my school next week and i’m so excited to see the look on people’s faces when the beat drops. I love this song, my favourite from portals along with Nymphology and Faerie Sorieé

Sim meu amigos.... A Melanie não errou em nenhuma música do álbum!! Acabei de escutar todas em meu Spotify! ❤ Nunca estive tão feliz quanto agora ❤🇧🇷

I'm gonna be in so much trouble when I don't wake up for school tmr cuz I was listening to this, but it's gonna be worth it😤

WOMB makes me so sad, but it’s such a good song!! I’m addicted 🤍🌬️ WOMB is a perfect ending to this album. Melanie is singing about Crybaby’s next life, where she will become a new person. This gives us information on what Melanie’s next album might be. We know that her next body will have a brother. This song also talks about how exciting it would be to know you’re about to become a new person, but how it can also be scary. It’s so cool that this song loops back to death at the end!!

Melanie has grown so much as an artist. I love every single song. They are all so different!

vamos 🇧🇷 vamos mostrar oque sabemos fazer e vamos subir essas músicas. TODOS MERECEM OUVIR, pelo menos uma vez🥺(ou mais).
