Melanie Martinez pops up on our radar with a new song titled Night Mime (V2). The song is an unreleased song by Melanie Martinez. It leaked in 2015. She also performed this song on The Dollhouse EP Tour.
The narrator endorses this behavior because they think of themselves as a mime; meant to be seen, not heard. The narrator can’t speak or has a certain amount of trouble telling their friend/lover what they would like to say. They have insomnia, making them somewhat sleepless or causing them to have difficulty when sleeping.
[Verse 1]
Pull those bloodshot eyes
Dip them in Visine and light
Forget my name at midnight
It’s okay, I’m a mime
[Chorus]
I’m tongue-tied in the night time
Silent, sleepless ’til the sunrise
Claustrophobic with a night light, night light
I’ll just wait here for the sunrise
So you can crawl back into my life
Until then I’ll be your night mime, night mime
[Verse 2]
Stay up late with broken mind
No text from you but I’ll be fine
I fall asleep with ocean eyes
I say no words like a midnight mime (mime)
[Chorus]
I’m tongue-tied in the night time
Silent, sleepless ’til the sunrise
Claustrophobic with a night light, night light
I’ll just wait here for the sunrise
So you can crawl back into my life
Until then I’ll be your night mime, night mime
