Demi Lovato: Melon Cake

There was a time
I was living as a prisoner inside my own mind
And there was a time
Where the cat and mouse tried to make me
Barbie sized and I obliged

Pulled leather over my eyes in a hundred degree heat
People out here getting fired for chocolate in the back seat
(It's a true story)
I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap
People always hung around who only wanted skin deep

And now I'm saying
No more melon cakes on birthdays
No more barricades in doorways
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

You could find me
Starving for attention most days
Amongst others things, god help me
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

No more melon cake
There was a time
I was pulled in all directions and forgot about mine
But I wouldn't wish
Those thoughts on my worst enemy
They make you wish you don't exist

Pulled leather over my eyes in a hundred degree heat
People out here getting fired for chocolate in the back seat
I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap
People always hung around who only wanted skin deep

And now I'm saying
No more melon cakes on birthdays
No more barricades in doorways
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

You could find me
Starving for attention most days
Amongst others things, god help me
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

No more melon cake (ha, ha)
No more melon cake (ha, ha)
No more melon cake (ha, ha)
No more melon cake (ha, ha)

Dear little me
I'm sorry that it took so long
But, baby, you're free

And now I'm saying
No more melon cakes on birthdays
No more barricades in doorways
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

You could find me
Starving for attention most days
Amongst others things, god help me
Finally get to do things my way
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

No more melon cake

According to nickiswift.com, in her new song, singer Demi Lovato processes how her former manager forced her to keep her weight under control. Instead of a real birthday cake, she had to be satisfied with a melon cake. She has now put an end to this, as she makes clear in her song: She does what she thinks is right and not what others expect her to do because of (dubious) ideals of beauty.
