Jaded 02:31
What you say and what you do won't make your life for you Call her all your names, call her what you will There's nothing she won't say or do to make her want to kill She's chasing demons every day inside her head There's nothing she won't say or do to make her think she might be dead
2.
Lemon 02:30
I'm hiding from your UV rays I know I'm not the daughter that you wanted The sidewalk burns, tiptoe ahead Don't try to hold my hand, I'll never like it When you become so sour like a lemon, learn some lessons Take what you deserve, and You'll never question. Never knew how much I could take. Don't ever know how much I can take Does that make sense? This pain won't end You ruined it. Now I'll hurt them These are the visions in my head These days honesty is just a picture, and Passing time leads to dread Don't wanna feel this way, but I can't help it You'll never know how it burned worse than when he left us And when we fight, it burns like a Roman candle Never knew how much I could take, I held it in only for your sake

Ice Cubes 01:29
I saw her face so clear, it was a guiding light. Whose hands will you find drifting through the night? Now the house is dark, and the TV's on. Your mind is numbing out rooted to the couch I knew it from the start, you'd leave us in the dark Now the house is dark, with the TV on, head is tilted back, ice cubes in a glass With the TV on, you're always restless now. Final resting place rooted to the couch
4.
Circles 01:25
Wake up on my feet, I don't get no more sleep, and I don't get You make me feel alive (just wanna stay), you make me feel deprived (with you all day) You took me for a ride (don't wanna stay), now drop me off inside (with you) Nothing for me out here all goddamn day, and I don't get You make me feel alive (just wanna stay), you make me feel deprived (with you all day) You took me for a ride (don't wanna stay), now drop me off inside I'm done with you
5.
Pacify 01:18
Seen just what you do, walk without a clue. Take these shoes of mine, you're way out of line It's all a lie, pacify Don't got much to say, you're not listening anyway Don't think about what's right, I'm done with being polite You won't pacify me You won't
6.
Shoot 00:47
An uncontested killing spree, not a murder of misogyny Not all men can see the sickness of our society Not all men can see, yes all women agree Sickness of our society
7.
Possession 01:29
Spit in your face, I'll spill your blood, I'm no possession I don't belong to anyone cuz things aren't what they were before I'm no belonging, you don't possess me anymore Spit in your face, I'll spill your blood, I'm no possession Don't know how things ever got this way When I made a resolution to free myself. Then burned it to the ground Wanna make a resolution to free ourselves from anybody else I'll spill your blood, I'm no possession I don't belong to anyone cuz things aren't what they were before I'm no belonging, you don't possess me anymore Can't stand anything about you, I regret the time I spent around you

about

"Catchy, upbeat melodies with thrashing guitar and intense percussion weave in with lyrics that aren’t just there for lyrics’ sake. These ladies are opinionated, bold, and brassy. This song [LEMON] is sour and twisted."
-Meredith Schneider, IMPOSE
www.imposemagazine.com/bytes/new-music/the-meltaways-lemon

"Their self-titled release thrust the influence of riot-grrrl music from the 90s sharply into the complacent face of the present. Via a recording that sounded like an explosive basement fury channelled into a collective of musical positivity, the trio presented combustible levels of attitude within their socio-political bursts of noise."
