Recess Lyrics by Melanie Martinez Melanie Martinez
Below, you will find the lyrics for Recess by Melanie Martinez.
Verse 1
I was too young to see the truth
In my grandma's lap, I'm drowning in her perfume
Too naive to even care
'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair
Chorus 1
People gonna say
If you need a break, someone'll take your place
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Just remember
Chorus 1
Don't let them you, honey, no
Don't let them try
Don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say, 'Recess, I'm tired'
Verse 2
Sittin' in my room, looking at all I've done
Everything I wanted has come to fruition
I should be happy but I can't get out my bed
Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head
Chorus 2
People gonna say
If you need a break, someone'll take your place
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Bridge
Where has my time gone
And my mind gone?
I can't find euphoria
When I get upset
I think in my head
Back to what she said
Chorus 3
People gonna say
If you need a break, someone'll take your place
People gonna try
To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
Just remember
Chorus 3
Don't let them you, honey, no
Don't let them try
Don't let them hurt you, baby
Just say 'recess,' I'm tired
