I don’t understand why this is everyone’s least favorite. People keep skipping it, but I feel like this is one of Melanie’s most heartbreaking and open songs. I feel like crying every time I listen to it, and you can feel the sadness in her voice. This is so beautiful.

The "leeches" thats Melanie's referring too is us the fans. Yapping to seem official is saying that things are and arent going to be out when we dont know that so we make ot official that it is or isnt happening. How much blood can you draw with your claws is symbolizing to how much information can you get out of me. Also gnaw on my bones no marrow left is saying weve taking all the information out and are waiting for more so we can leak all the information we get. Leeches is an amazing song and is very underrated in the album. One of the most beautiful songs and only some people realize it. We love you Melanie❤❤

Yeah, me too. I really thought this song was a skip because I never heard the middle part. It’s a beautiful song. I would put it in top 2. The first part isn’t downbeat and like the rest of the song, that’s would got me set down. One I gave it a full listen it was a really good song. At first, I just listened to the original, and the ‘best’ ones, like ‘Death’ and ‘Void’ which aren’t the best ones by far, they’re just the first ones on the album. ‘I guess it’s just the the luck of the draw’ really captivated my mind. It really summarized what melanie had to go though over the years. In fact, this whole song did. No other song of hers, even outside of the album has this much story behind it. It has the perfect tune and perfect pitch. It even sounds go sped up and backwards, which is a quality that most music does not have. Also, ‘yapping to seem official’ was just a really good lyric. It was the perfect transition to the peak of the song, which is the middle. I know I said before I would put it at top two, but now, I change my mind. It is top 1. It’s the best song in the album. Unlike some songs in this album, it just has the perfect lyrics and tune. So, I agree. This song is very beautiful and did not capture my eye in the first listen, but once I listened to it closely, it became my favorite song in the whole playlist.

This is one of my fave songs from her album💗: Lyrics💗: Leeches surrounded, conscience is throbbing They can't sleep at night, hold their pillows tight Caught in the rivers of tears that I cried Bountiful harvest, they flock to my garden Push their way inside, I go run and hide They lift all the covers, pull me into their sight [Pre-Chorus] Slimy and superficial Straining their artificial Yapping to seem official Making it beneficial to their cause [Chorus] How much blood can you draw with your claws From a flesh that's not yours? My hands aren't yours, and Gnaw on my bones, no marrow left To keep you enthralled I guess that is the luck of the draw, oh-oh [Verse 2] Let all their friends in, the enemy's present They don't think too hard about your fragile heart They eat of the table that you set, so you starve Stop all your breathing, no, don't let them see you They find any way, just to make you stay Right where they want you, in their piss-covered games [Pre-Chorus] Slimy and superficial Straightning their artificial Yapping to seem official Making it beneficial to their cause [Chorus] How much blood can you draw with your claws From a flesh that's not yours? My hands aren't yours and Gnaw on my bones, no marrow left To keep you enthralled I guess that is the luck of the draw, oh-oh

I relate so much to this song I feel someone is abusing my kindness and trust. I feel that person is humiliating me. My friends mostly leave me behind, I guess it’s because I’m too sensitive for them. At this point I feel that my sadness is not taken seriously, I sometimes end up crying but that person doesn’t care. She just jokes. I feel ashamed of myself because I feel I’m such a crybaby, but I always end up saying “I guess that’s how things are” “They don’t think too hard ‘bout your fragile heart” Gosh such a relatable lyric. Melanie is a damn genius Anyways this song is such a bop

I don’t remember the last time I listened to an entire album all the way through till now. My life has become pretty hectic and I don’t have much time to search for music I like nor listen when I find it. When I do have time to listen to stuff in the background I usually listen to podcast or other KZbin videos. But I found out Melanie dropped this album I stopped everything to listen to this and song after song has been incredible. She is truly a creative genius.

Melancholic, dreamy, haunting... Melanie is chilling and absolutely beautiful. I've been a casual listener for a long time, since I got a "Now that's what I call hits" CD. and "Dollhouse" was featured at the very end, because she was that CD's featured new-artist. I'd keep playing it over and over. They're such a unique and creative individual. And I could feel and hear all of the subliminal messages they put in all of their work. It's very admirable. Like I may invest in this album with how much this genre really matches well with the emotions in her voice. I look forward to more works if Melanie still plays around with this music genre. Because I'm enamored with these songs and their incredible vocal power. But if she goes back to making fun bops, I'll stick around for those too.

This is one of THE most saddest song mel's ever made. I don't get why people hate this new era of her. She spent 4 years on this , and this is what she gets? If people payed attention to the lyrics like they did in dollhouse ep, crybaby, k-12 AND after school ep. And the soundtrack at the end was terrifying. I like to believe that it was oliver tree screaming, cause if you pay a little attention it kinda sounds like him. The emotion she put in this is amazing. The lyrics are so good that this song was stuck in my head the WHOLE day. The amazing fact about Melanie is that her songs get stuck in your head. ( in a good way) , the hard work and smart work she put in this album is inspiring. Love you mel ❤❤
