Melanie Martinez - EVIL (Lyrics) 

This song has been stuck in my head all day, I can't get enough of it.

This song is so relatable 😭 “i won’t defend you to all my friends, this time I refuse!” Hits hard. I wish I didn’t defend her and protect her. She was horrible, I will never feed her, she can call me evil. And she does. Do I care? No.

Put this here so whenever its liked or replied to i can come back

This is 100% my favorite song in the whole album 💿

"No, I won't defend you to all my friends this time I refuse" - love that part, fucking reminds me of my last relationship where I defended him from my friends, even after he did something that will still have an affect on me...

NO, I NEVER KNEW WHAT IT MEANT, WHAT IT MEANT TO BE CONTENT WITH YOU

I love it when songs describe exactly what I'm feeling and thinking in my head. I deal with an abusive mother and a father who is constantly trying to act like her actions are justified. I'm almost 15 now, and even if I'm still stuck living with them, I'm already trying to move on. I know they're shit and never going to change. They can try and manipulate me into trusting them again all they want, but it's not going to work. And then they try and act like I'm a bad kid for not liking my shitty mother. My father even tried forcing me to apologize once for simply calling out my mother. Well, guess what? No. It's over, I'm not going to just let myself be emotionally manipulated and abused anymore. I'd rather be a bad child than a sad one.

Evil is the best song in the entire album. *CHANGE MY MIND*

I remember having a homophobic and transphobic friend and I knew that, but I was stuck with them because I had no other friends at the time. When I came out to them as non-binary, they called me a bunch of slurs and threatened me not to tell the teacher, since we were in school at the time. She did this almost every day, sometimes even punching or slapping me until I told the teacher and she got expelled. Never more happy in my life.

this song reminds me of the person that groomed me when i was 13. i wont go into a lot of detail, but he included me in his fantasies and would get angry when i didnt have time to talk to him. i would explain why, and he would say he bent over backwards for me and i stepped on his face, that i should be thankful he did that. he got cold and distant when he found out i was in a relationship (after telling me he loved me, called me cute, etc). it took me way too long to figure out what he did was grooming, and i only have one thing left to say: you were 23, connor. talking to a child a decade younger than you. im 17 now, and im much stronger than you.

This song has deep meanings🫣🫣

The lyrics are so true. I dont know which one relates more, fake friends or being groomed, but its so relatable in some way.

I just got out from my toxic friends last week and this song reminds me on what I've been through all those hell rides with them. I was always left out to them and they would just talk to me if they need something fr. Btw, thank you for this! 😭💖✨

I just got out from toxic realitionship and this song is very relatable. When i heard this song first time i first kinda wanted to ignore it because i realited to it very quick but i loved the guy too much at that time. Now i sing this song with my heart im free now and happier!!

"I never meant what it meant to be content with you" I can relate so much.

I love the ‘crack your head like an egg’ bit fsr-

LOVIN YOU WAS LETHAL GUESS THAT MAKES ME EVIL BEST LINE EVER

This is probably my 2nd favorite song on the album besides Void; but every song on this Album is really great.

This song hits hard because I escaped a few toxic friendships in the past

I think this one is the most happy song of the album and it’s called evil xD It is catchy, upbeat synth beat

This song is stuck in my head 💀 i was still awake at night and singing it 😭😍 Edit: thx for 10 likes 😍 Edit 2: NO WAY 36 LIKES TY

“TAKE IT TO THE GRAVE IF YOU WANNA PLAY PRENTEND”

Really relatable, as a people pleaser i can feel guilty when i have my evil days but this song helps me deal with them :D

Melanie is an absolute godess

This is an incredible song- THANK YOU to Melanie for exposing narcissists and their never ending abuse. Edit: POWER to all survivors 🩵🔥

1:31- 1:39 literally my favorite lyric

I’m so glad my friend sent this song to me. I was with a narcissist who used coercive control on me. Used strategic forms of oppression and terror to instill fear into me. To make me fear ever leaving him. He isolated me from everyone. Abused me mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually but using my faith against me. Broke my finger and broke into my house. Tried to turn my friends and family against me. I’m so thankful I found the strength to leave him. It’s possible. Just do everything you can to erode the trauma bond you have between you and the narcissist. Educate yourself on narcissism/sociopathy.

"see the horns on my head? there from goddesses on god" is always stuck in my head 24-7

i love how it sounds like shes trying to stay calm but still breaks out in these lil screams its like an arguement with that person yk? like trying to stay calm with them. idk how to explain it but this is so fire i love how she's like and it felt like **Bliss** also mice are awesome okay go away um yeah me dancing to this in my room at like 8:00 >>>

This song is so therapeutic I had a really abusive ex the type that slowly creeps in on you he took things from me I will never get back physically and emotionally most of my friends had been friends with him for longer so they didn't see the signs either till we broke up due to other reasons and I told them about the relationship and looking back it was so fucking bad he only talked to me when he wanted something from me other than that i was useless to him he didn't love me he talked bad about me behind my back I hate him but I hate myself more for letting myself get in that relationship. Thank you for reading.

NOW I AM HOP, SKIP, JUMPING OVER NARCISSISTS SAID ITS ALL IN MY HEAD, IN MY HEAD WHENEVER I SPOKE MY TRUTH TOOK ME WAY TOO LONG TO PUT THIS TO BED NO I NEVER KNEW WHAT IT MEANT WHAT IT MEANT TO BE CONTENT WITH YOU TAKE IT TO THE GRAVE IF YOU WANNA PLAY PRETEND I WONT BE MISTREATED PLEASE CALL ME CONCEIVED GUESS THAT MAKES ME EVIL, EVIL EVIL This song is so fucking freeing

THIS SONG IS PERFECT TO SING TO MY ENEMY ONE DAY BUT IT WOULD BE SO CRINGE IF I DO 😭

This song gave me LITERAL CHILLS ❤

one of her best songs in my opinion

Give me the strength to leave my narcissist

This song is relatable on so many levels.

i'm obsessed with this song like GODD PLS. WHY ARE ALL OF MELANIE'S SONGS SO GOOD! LIKE EVERY ARTIST I'VE LISTENED TOO I WILL AWASY HATE A FEW OF THEIR SONGS BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY SONGS THAT I'V HATE FROM MELANIE-

“I never what it meant to be content with you, everything I expressed to you never quite made it through” I felt that…

"Remember when you smiled right to my face as all my little tears of oxalate they made a shap revealed a snake" And "everytime you tell a lie im praying that you choke" but "hope you never cope, hope you slip on soap crack your head like a egg wana see the yoke" ahh they hit so hard and "left your shit on red four times today and it felt like bliss" omggg i just love this song ❤

This song reminds me of how my dad makes me feel

Female rage. I love it.

This song is so damn catchy😭

This song is perfect for me to sing whenever I'm mad at the person that used me for my body

"Remembered when you smiled right to my face? as all my little ear of oxalteee" my favorite partttttt this song is so gooodddd omg I love it

This, powder and nymphology are my favs in the album❤

This song is so good 😭

This sony reminds me of an old friendship of mine it was toxic she would make fun of my body and bodyshame me and id make it so obvious that i was hurt and uncomfortable with it but whe just ignored it then when i finally exolained to her wird for word how that shit made me feel she claimed that she didnt ever bodyshame me like girly heres all the things you said to me "youre built like a stick, youre too skinny, youre flat, you wouldnt know you dont have boobs, you have no ass" like girl bye

"took me way too long to put this to bed" litterally

I LOVE THIS AND ALL HER SONGS THEY ARE RELATABLE

Guess that makes me EVIL EVIL

0:36-1:00 is the best in my opinion

Guys lets do this. I'll start You called the other day, i stayed away.

Creative Chaos, This made me laugh so much! Thanks for sharing!

first time i heard this song: yep, that's Melanie Martinez.

reading this comment section makes me not feel alone. i know a really shitty person and y’all + this song helps me get through it.

You can call me EVIL take it to the grave!

I really enjoy the RU-vid community so much and how some show others so much love its feels great to be part as a viewer and a creator

My favorite song without a doubt over everything it has a hint of feeling betrayed and a hint of perseverance perfect song for someone who needs to get over an abusive relationship👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

These are profound words and lemme say no matter the age a player will play! #EVIL

Damn I never knew she still curses lmao

They barely give her any airplay- (only heard VOID 2-3 times and that was it). They cut her off for only the chorus at recording of the concert TV.

I can relate so much people with depression would understand

I was listening to this while one of my friends were having an identity crisis😃

This is easily one of the best songs EVER

“I won’t be mistreated, please call me conceited!” I feel like that line reminds me of this one friend I used to have where she would say mean things about me and one time when we were on Roblox, my mom told me to tell her about how I feel, and I guess she took it as a joke, we’re cool now and she moved schools, but still this phrase reminds me of how it was like when I confronted her about it irl one day at school and she finally took what I was saying seriously.

LOVIN YOU WAS LETHAL GUESS THAT MAKES ME EVIL ‼️‼️🗣️

The fact that the Internet is saving teenagers that are going through what I did is an amazing and beautiful thing to witness. But ngl I’m kind of jealous of today’s teenagers for that reason. It took me a long time before I even discovered the term narcissistic abuse.. far, FAR too long. 𝖿⋃𝖼𝗄 you Mom. 凸(⁰▿⁰)凸

1:33 is the best part bc ik she maybe talking about oliver tree.

YOU CALLED THE OTHER DAY, I STAYED AWAY

how she says "i refuse" is to cute-

Help this song is so addicting and good, just like every other Mel song 😭❤

BRO IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS SONG FOR SO LONG FINALLY FOUND IT

"Hope you slip on soap" -me everytime I see someone I hate

IF YOU BITE MY HAND AGAIN I WILL NEVER FEED YOU, YOU CAN CALL ME EVIL EVIL

Bro I hear It 1 Time AND I GOT OBSESSED

NO I NEVER KNEW WHAT IT MEANT TO BE CONTENT WHIT YOU EVERYTHING I EXPRESSED I PROFESSED IT NEVER QUITE MADE IT THROUGH

aughhh this is therapy

Anyone realizing this song fits for victims of vampires?

The tune makes me think it’s an innocent song-

Such a good time to find this song! Into the playlist about the person it goes.

i absolutely love this song it describes an old friend of mine perfectly she was narcissistic,would never admit her mistake and call me out for the littlest things i'm proud of myself that i broke things off with her, in all honesty i don't want to wish her bad i hope shes safe where ever she is right now and a better person

with this song, i understood that i am the evil, but it hurts the same...

"this timee~ iIi REFUSE 💅🏻‼️"

“Now the roles are reversed, I told you I’m a switch” ~ felt this line SO VERY hard fr fr Just ALL THE LYRICS of THIS SPECIFIC song. I’ve been a fan of you Melanie, since I was in hs over a decade ago, and your songs as we grow up alongside about the same age as eachother just keep hitting deeper and evoke MORE relativity NOW than they ever had. Another line “Everything i expressed, it never quite made it through. “Said it’s all in my head all in my head whenever I spoke my my truth.” Like WOAH LADY! Cut. It . Out. Gtfo of my head, you’re basically singing a song of my relationship CURRENTLY WITH my BABY’s father.like I love him, but dammit it if he don’t get me and he misses me and kisses great and cares about our son and me to a large extent, but gaslights me when he becomes short with my nature of over expressiveness in his observations, instead of calmly supporting my genuine insecurities about (being aware too) that I speak as my mind is and I’m an “overthinker” and as you can clearly see, it’s nearly how I write too, I have to shorten my raving thoughts for clarity… but(and I’m not boasting or bigheaded or overconfident by a LARGE stretch, but I’m very keen and rarely a mean person, I do hope for “better” and often work towards that in ANY(platonic,romantic or even familiar) relationship. However, not everyone lives up to their potential you clearly believe and Carey the faith for both of you they can achieve…perhaps, if your like me too… you think their more capable of their abilities than you even are in your own. Unfortunately I will carry a lot of our “coparenting” within my (trying for) partnership… but as soon as he drinks again, he goes from lucid and capable of coherent and compassionate albeit EVEN COMFORTING and attentive (CLEAR) communication with open arms, when HE BEGINS TO (having now claimed he is as he states “no different” when he drinks, VERY defensive? Quick to conclude I’m annoying him, sloppy about flirting reaching immediately than playing cool or composed to results of sex instead of the other Sober person I’d never really known but had admired more and even gotten used to and hoped would stay around(not only for me, because love and loyalty drives me, but mainly because I think our son deserves that type of attentiveness and direct connection form in parenting, the sensitivity to resolve and meet and respect his needs and accommodate them as they change… he’s two and may have Asperger’s-aka high functioning autism, if he’s on the spectrum, even if HE WAS NOT, he deserves the confidence form his parents ALWAYS and NOT the frustration I’ve seen his dad often times get short with me about, my instinct is to defend his desires and remind ppl of his autonomy, even in place and given space of his father, my most recent partner whom I’m not really sure about often enough to decide rn, I try but I’m not cemented and he knows this… I’m nothing else if but honest and he detests this when he drunk but admired it when he’s sober) in short courts made him take AA and now that he’s out of the program he’s began again but our caseworker favors him and doesn’t seem to note HIS history or record of it, but rather that I may be “emotionally unfit” as a mother but no one will advocate for my son like I will. And he think I’m paranoid or “looking into” something that is not there. TBT, I notice everything about everyone, I have such an attention to details of character or retain so much, even the little things no one even thinks of… I have to downplay it so I don’t freak ppl out. I suppose this song hits because I know I’m unusual but not bad, not “crazy” just a High IQ with PTSD and a kid that I was told I’d never have or had slim chances of conceiving right within the same two year time frame my dearest and supportive sister I made his god mother, died. And their bit Jesus are a day apart, and she died the day after hers and his is right before hers… so YEAH tf ofc I am going to therapy to handle that… but it’s help to not perceive myself as an alcoholic projects me to be “spiraling” “crazy” “depressed” when I’m healing through greif and got hit with news I’m more than willing to accommodate to because I’m so grateful to still have my boy, ya know? But it takes proactive to build back up confidence (through all THAT, no less) too. It’d be nice to be offered the same respect and not just seen as the “gf who does it for him, dad job” because his grandma and mom always did and in a big way until the day she too passed away(my sons great grandma and my coparent’s Mothers mother) she literally did pay his bills , and I just appeared to be nagging, but I’ve never asked him for a vent of child support, been told I’m AM a dimbass for that plus additionally I pay for our sons medical bill expenses that Arendt cheap, haven’t been working yet, lunch and save every dollar and he got not only his grandmas life insurance policy from American Airlines (nationwide coverage not just stage to state) after working for just under 20 years BUT HER LATE husbands as well) and STILL says HES THE ONE that needs help. So in short context, yeah, this is THE SONG I be jamming LOUD AF with him present in a room. Because I NOT ONLY feel it, but like LIVE IT. Day to day to day. ~cRc13 Thanks for liking my comments.

Evil sounds like void at the intro- IM CRYINGGG❤

Sending love to everyone who is or was in an abusive relationship and knows how warranted this song is 💗💗💗

the start of this song kinda sounds like the start of the song void from the same album

This song is good fit to Angel Dust had toxic relationship to Valentino.

Am thinking about making and edit of part of this song in it with Scaramouch Should i?

yeap this song definitey taking me through a second heartbreak ,love you melanie

I don't know who I should trust and with who I should be friends. Relationships are quite hard

“hope you never cope, hope you slip on soap” is the best part 😍

When i was a child whenever something bad happened to me my parents would always gaslight me into thinking it was my fault, like when i was crying instead of helping me my brother just laughed at me while my older sister just kept throwing stuff on me until a tumbler hit my head so i told my parents what happened and all they said was it was my fault since i was crying even though it was my sibling's fault since instead of helping me they just ignored me and threw stuff at me in hopes that i would shut up. Now im getting treated really shitty and i found its probably cuz im the youngest and the weakest in my family, they enjoy hitting ms telling me im useless because they know im weak and dont know how to fight back, it really sucks and sometimes i dont get why i still feel guilty of thinking that they deserve to die even though they don't treat me like their family.

Me: trying to sing this My throat: its to early for this

Portals is one of the best albums of melanie martinez ❤

oh my god i love this song so much

THIS SONG IS SO AWESOME LIKE FOR MEL FANS!!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Just to be clear for the people in the back, neither this song nor any other songs from the Portals Album were written about her relationship with Oliver Tree! Just to let people know for anyone who’s still giving him shit! Now back to the song, It Slaps!!!

Helping myself will be a privilege.

The fact that a jolly rancher ad came on in the middle of the song is hilarious to me.
