Melanie Martinez - MILK OF THE SIREN (Official Audio) 

the parts where the screaming choir is cut off actually sounds like its drowned out. genius.

I’m so glad she didn’t stop working on sirens after getting leaked and SOUNDS SO GOOD 🥹😫

Had a 60+ year old man touch my ass as "a joke" the other night; I went home and cried. This album has been helping me come out of that slump. (It's not just about an old man touching my ass, but it also is. Something that "simple" can discourage the soul.) We deserve so much better ❤

I like how this song is full of rage, but it's delivered very peacefully with a hint of glee

Even though this was leaked, I’m honestly super happy you still posted this. It’s honestly such a good song. No one can not love this.

Melanie not only expresses her emotions in her songs, but she also expresses the reality most of us live in. She's amazing and deserves the world. 💗

CAN WE PLEASE ADMIRE THE ENDING OF THE SONG? "Nothin' wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan", IT'S SO GOOD SERIOUSLY...

As a woman who was married to an abusive husband for 13 years , this song really touched me. I love melanie , as she helped me recover from my abusive,toxic relationship and helped me except myself. Don't hate on Melanie , love her

I don't apologize for the person this album is turning me into

This song awakens a rage deeply ingrained in my soul... Makes me feel like a lioness fighting for her fallen sisters.

the line, "dont feel bad when these fuckers all drown" hits me, because im being bullied at school and when i feel mad i just think of that line. im autistic and people at school say im weird; they hate me. so this song makes me feel better in a way that not even saturn by lyn lapid can make me feel. UPDATE: i finally moved to a new school, i have AMAZING friends and have an amazing bf and I'm really happy so dw im all good

i am a male but i love that she’s expressing feminism and spreading awareness of abusive men. lots of men i know aren’t the best and i really relate thanks for making this beauty mel!!

NOW THIS IS THE REAL PORTALS ALBUM. ITS GIVING ME A EUPHORIA VIBES AND AT THE SAME TIME SHE IS TAKING ME TO OTHER DIMENSION. SHE DID A VERY GOOD JOB ON THIS ONE❤️❤️❤️👽🌸💐🍄

As a native woman i feel like this song helps paint a picture of what it’s like to be an indigenous person/woman in todays world.

I love the way she spreads awareness about topics which aren't talked about enough. I love her.

Those "Fans" who unfollowed her because of her new "Aesthetic", are not fans. Her songs heal everyone. She said: "I wanna make people forget about their trauma". She really did.

This whole album is going to be my personality for the next couple of months

I remember this song was leaked and how it was one of the popular unreleased songs from Melanie. I’m so happy Melanie released this, because this one is a bop and the production/ vocals 10/10.

i just want to say ....why isnt she already playing on RADIO STATIONS???!! wait yall waiting for??? i wanna she her at the met gala bet her costume would be fire!!! i wanna she her at the grammys, the awards show EVERYWHERE!!!!! give her the recognition she deservers!!!

GUYS OMG I JUST REALISED. In the middle of the video or so,it's a uhumanly voice saying "YOU JUST LET THEM DROWN" AND melanies first song,Cry baby has a line "You just let then drown" AND THAT MATCHES COMPLETLY the cry baby meaning is to let the people making fun of you drown in your tears and in this music it's to let the other peoples(manly the boys whit swords) to drown. It's completely the same but different people.

I was so sad this song wasn't true because I didn't think it was coming out but now that it's out I know I can live my life in peace listening to the original and full version now. Thanks Melanie 💖

I'm so happy this is part of the album!!! I loved this song ever since it got leaked😅 Usually leaked ones don't end up part of the album so I was surprised

People who say 'I miss old melanie and K-12' arent fan at all. Crybaby is immortal and this is one of her other bodies, portals music is absolute art and has many meanings, im reading through the comments and see many people relating to this song differently, its bringing people together in music. I love melanie so much its unexplainable

I was sa'd nearly every night by a family member from when I was 9-10. It caused me to develop depression and anxiety, especially around men. This album has helped me so much, especially this song

Like 6 hours ago at work I literally said to myself “omg she needs extra tracks on this” AND SHE LITERALLY DID OH MY GOD. THIS SONG SLAPS SO HARD 😭🔥❤️ she’s taking care of us y’all.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE ALBUM I'M CRYING

Lyrics Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which one's deserving to drown Engraved in our memory, the harm that was done Our mothers, the witches they banished and burned All of our sisters were killed and abused By sword-swinging men who would always accuse The worst of a woman who fights for our right To be where we belong at the front of the line Tired of silence and being polite Your legs turn to shimmering scales in the night Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which ones deserving to drown Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown Let them drown Let them drown Let them drown Tenderness worn on the skin like a dress Nurture these men, pull them out of their mess They steal the resources, destroy all the land Belittle the power of the feminine hand The milk from the rivers of every moon Cradle you tight like you're back in the womb Bury their souls in a cove by the light Celestial dip all that ego and pride Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which ones deserving to drown Let them drown Let them drown Let them drown Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave waters red Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave water's red Nothing wrong with a little havoc (drink from the leche of sirens) It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting (summon the sailors in town) Cut 'em off, leave water's red Nothing wrong with a little havoc (strangle the fear of deciding) It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting (which ones deserving to drown) Cut 'em off, leave water's red (Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown)

the part 3:15 honestly just gets me, I've been bullied in a school a lot and I get a lot of rage of hearing their harsh words about me. and the part just explains my anger about the bullying. this is why I love Melanie's music so much

Melanie is really spoiling us with this album! The other songs and now we have three more? Not to mention a movie coming out soon? Plus the massive lord drop this is all causing! They deserve way more credit than they’re getting for this! This must have been hard work, but it’s definitely paying off! I’m excited to see this album made into a film, it’s got so many fantasy elements and I need to know how this all fits into K-12! Edit: the movie isn’t going to be out soon because Melanie doesn’t have enough money to start filming yet, but there is a script.

This line “All of our sisters were killed and abused by sword-swinging men who would always accuse the worst of a woman who fights for our right to be where we belong at the front of the line tired of silence and being polite your legs turn to shimmering scales in the night” is EVERYTHING!! ✨ (Edited): OMG I HAVE 1.1K LIKES TYSM ALL OF YOU GUYS!!!! 🥰

as someone who is still recorvering from a physically, mentally, and emotionally abusive man, this really helped me. i feel really empowered listening to this. "all of our sisters were killed and abused by sword-swinging men who would always accuse the worst of a woman who fights for our right to be where we belong at the front of the line tired of silence and bring polite" i really relate to that. im a trans man, and even though that woman i used to be is dead, i will always remember our fallen sisters, who fought for their rights, who fought to be them, and treated right. all woman, trans or cis, short or tall, fat or skinny or inbetween those, all deserve to be treated fairly and not like garbage. woman are powerful and beautiful beings. and ladies, no matter what ANYONE says, you are beautiful, worthy, godesses, and you are NOT ugly, worthless, or trash. aphrodity had belly rolls! she is the godess of beauty and she had belly rolls! you are all beautiful, love yall♥️♥️♥️♥️

The "LET THEM DROWN" mixed with like backing vocals screaming and singing the lyrics is just perfect 3:15

My 13 year old daughter absolutely loves your music Ms.Martinez! For a whole month she was counting down the days until you released the album! You are most definitely her favorite artist right now! The lyrics to this song are very deep much love and respect and hopefully we can get to one of your concerts this summer here in Texas!!! This will be her first concert ever and I am excited for!

Melanie is the only one who can actually heal my pain from this world.

My bestie was humming this in class and I recognized IMMEDIATELY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PORTALS DELUXE!! 🧚🏽‍♀🧚🏽‍♀

I'm indigenous myself and have lost many sisters to the grasp of disgusting men. This song makes me feel empowered, just to imagine letting all of those men drown in vengeance of our stolen sisters. Even in unfortunately regular cases of non-MMIW misogyny, it's still impactful. Women are expected to nurture and baby men, even if they abuse us. When we fight back, we are only seen as "monsters."

I can say proudly that I’ve never listened to this or any unreleased song of her, I waited till it got released and now I can hear it properly. Love you Mel 🤍🤍

i love how the rhythm of this song is so fluid and lulling, it makes me feel like im swinging on the waves

Being the survivor of so many toxic relationships and so much abuse this song echoes the woman I hold at bay. This song is such an outstanding proclamation of the exploitation of artists in the industry K-12 paints the picture of innocence lost and this song showcases the survival instinct of those who make it out of that horrible phase who are thrown away when they mature into the demons created. This to me tells the story of a girl who fell in love after with someone she thought was different who inevitably showed her to “strangle the thought of whose deservin” because continually being hurt seems to be the rhythm. 🎉 and ode to women to keep fighting.

I know this got leaked but I am so happy she still decided to put it out! It's literally my favorite song of her she ever made❤

I love how Melanie is growing in so many ways and being creative like always. Love you Melanie 💓

Did anyone else notice that both this song and cry baby have a line that says "let them drown". I dont know if its on purpose but its still cool...

One year of PORTALS 🧜🏼‍♀️💗

To the person reading this, Good Luck! Don't stress, everything will be fine. No matter what difficulty you are facing right now, you can overcome it! You are strong and brave.

The fact I sense the song is about Sirens not being the evil ones but basically protectors of the marginalized who lure toxic masculine men and abusers of the patriarchy, to get a taste of their own medicine ❤😂. This song is amazing- POWERFUL 🙌

One of my fav eras yet

this song is simply art, i feel like it reflects the hate, the impotence and the fear; all the things we've been taught, like being polite with our abusers, living on silence and being ashamed of our power and voice. all these things being converted into such an amazing song like this. how can we just not love melanie when she does these amazing lyrics?

The fact that Melanie doesn’t have a bad song at all is insane they just can’t make a bad song

stanning melanie martinez isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle, a reason to breathe, an escape from this cruel world filled with thieves. it’s art

she literally has no bad songs

Hot freakin take this is the best song of "PORTALS" and needs more recognition

Her music leaves me speechless. She’s incredible

I’m so grateful for Melanie, her music has always been there for me. She deserves the world ❤️

I still can't belive I missed her PORTALS tour.. if she does another US leg I pray she comes to Oklahoma 🙏🏻🧚🏼‍♀️

melanie makes me proud of all the parts of my identity. i’ve never gotten much support from the people around me. and they always do bring me down for my opinions and values, be if my dissatisfaction with the exploitation and the oppression of art in the modern society etc.. melanie is one of the only artists that resonate with me. she’s the big sister i always needed for support and love, an empty hole she will always fill with her music. i love her so much

I think everyone can agree melanie hasn't just grown with her music but also have grown as a being

Words can't explain how much I love Melanie, she basically raised me, her songs have comforted me in horrible times. I love her so so much

2:00 perfect I love you Melanie so much!

The story telling in this song ⭐ I just imagine mermaids killing evil misogynistic pirate men

From Milk and Cookies🍪 to the Milk of The Siren 🧜🏽‍♀️🖤 I was 14 when I found her, now I’m 22 screeching in excitement since it released and just now with these 3 songs🖤 love them ALL

LYRICS! [Chorus] Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which one's deserving to drown [Post-Chorus] (Drown, drown) (Drown, drown) [Verse 1] Engraved in our memory, the harm that was done Our mothers, the witches they banished and burned All of our sisters were killed and abused By sword-swinging men who would always accuse [Pre-Chorus] The worst of a woman who fights for our right To be where we belong at the front of the line Tired of silence and being politе Your legs turn to shimmering scales in thе night [Chorus] Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which ones deserving to drown Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown [Post-Chorus] Let them drown (Drown) Let them drown (Drown) Let them drown (Drown, drown) [Verse 2] Tenderness worn on the skin like a dress Nurture these men, pull them out of their mess They steal the resources, destroy all the land Belittle the power of the feminine hand [Pre-Chorus] The milk from the rivers of every moon Cradle you tight like you're back in the womb Bury their souls in a cove by the light Celestial dip all that ego and pride [Chorus] Drink from the leche of sirens Summon the sailors in town Strangle the fear of deciding Which ones deserving to drown [Post-Chorus] Let them drown (Drown) Let them drown (Drown) Let them drown (Drown, drown) [Bridge] Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave waters red Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave water's red Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan (Drink from the leche of sirens) So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave water's red (Summon the sailors in town) Nothing wrong with a little havoc It's fun when shit hits the fan (Strangle the fear of deciding) So guillotine their heads by shouting Cut 'em off, leave water's red (Which ones deserving to drown) (Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown)

I live how she adds Spanish into this “Drink from the *leche* of the sirens”

At first, I didn’t really wanna listen to this song because I was really biased but when it came on I have it a chance and holy shit, I’m so glad I did. It’s such a great song and so catchy?? also the parts where she says “Let them drown”?! Melanie ur so talented 😭💞

I’ve only listened to this song three times and I already feel like this might be my favorite song from the album

This is seriously one of her best songs. The lyric is mesmerizing. She gave us the fairly tale + horror vibe with this song. The hatred is getting stronger toward the end of the song. After I listen to Portals, I understand why she doesn’t want to include this song in the normal album since it doesn’t match the theme.

BEST SONG IN THE ALBUM IDC.

I admire this song, because it encourages people against their abusers.

Melanie’s songs are never disappointing

AMO TANTO ESTA NUEVA ERA, SIENTO QUE ESTOY CRECIENDO JUNTO CON MELANIE COMO PERSONA❤

I have been a fan ever since when she was in their 2015 crybaby era. I love this new album sm!! Those ‘fans’ that calls this aesthetic weird, and unfollowed; are not fans. I LOVE THIS AESTHETIC SM.!!!! I LOVE YOU MEL!! 🧚 💖 ✨

This song actually made me cry sm, like the "let them drown!!" idk anymore bro, the meaning is so heartbreaking, Melanie NEVER makes the worst song, I love her sm!! ❤🧚‍♀️

Although it was leaked and she said she won’t put leaked songs on an album, I’m glad she did as this song perfectly fits the Portals era

I love how she's posting all these amazing songs to us right after the new album 😭 ❤

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PORTALS DELUXE!!🎉

happy 1 year anniversary, Milk Of The Sirens!!!!! 🩷🩵

ME SIENTO ORGULLOSA DE DECIR QUE NO LA ESCUCHÉ FILTRADA Y PUEDO ESCUCHARLA POR PRIMERA VEZ, TE AMO MELANIE ♥️

Chills through out the whole song i absolutely love the meaning behind this, your words were painting such a deep picture of how mythical beings were treated and how men always saw the bad in them when really they were just scared of us humans

2:05 I love this part especially when it says, "Belittle the power of the feminine hand.🧜‍♀️❤️"

A guy I barely know had the audacity of touching and kissing me directly in the lips and I felt so violated. Specially because he is twice my age. He followed me to the subway from work to "say goodbye and ask why I was leaving early".This song represents well all that inner rage and sorrow

this song was leaked but i never listened to it once because i don’t like listening to leaked songs as it feels disrespectful and i wanted it to be a surprise!! but i heard good comments abt this song so i was super excited and it did not disappoint! one of my favs!! good job melanie ur amazing x

I didn't expect her to release another song on the album, but this sounds incredible!

First song of crybaby: You just let them drown Last song of portals: let them drown

how many times have you listens to the portals album? *yes*

1:50 best part "LET THEM DROWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN"

The end goes crazy fr

This song follows every rule of songwriting its amazing. The way she implements her voice, the effects, the backround, the lyrics! Ik this one isnt as recognized as her other songs but this is a genuine masterpiece!

As much as I LOVE every bad ass songs about bad bitches these days, I really craved a FEMININE vibe that empowers femininity. Thank You Melanie, So. Fucking. Much. For this masterpiece.

I can’t believe Melanie did this for us. Her songs are so meaningful and she is a great artist.

We NEED a music video for this song, I can imagine a music video rn.

MELANIE ATE THISSS Love her new style

I cannot believe how absolutely perfect every song on this album is. I haven't had an album rip my heart out like this in a long time. Thank you so much, Melanie. You have given us such a beautiful gift ✨💜✨

ESTOY AMANDO A ESTA ERA MÁS QUE A MÍ PROPIA VIDA 😭

I finally have a song from Melanie Martinez I can add to my mermaid playlist! It’s so empowering!

milk of the siren is just amazing. i've no idea how this song didnt make it to the actual album, because it's just so good. one of my favourite songs of the deluxe album! i respect that she put it in the deluxe, instead of the main album though! keep making music, mel, but also dont push yourself please! if u need a small break, please take one. we can wait, your mental health cant. thank you for this masterpiece! :)

This deserves to be in the top 3 songs in this album! And the contortionist.

YES! I’ve been so excited for this song! Melanie doesn’t disappoint when it comes to any of her songs! Every song/content that she has released as been an absolute banger! I have been into her songs since her crybaby era and I’ve been happy to have been seeing her grow so much as a person. Can’t wait for movie next year.

i am addicted to this song, it makes me feel fulfilled and i love screaming "LET THEM DROWN" with the song, it just takes my anger out

I was terrified that this song wouldn’t be on Portals due to it getting leaked, but I am so glad its on here.
