Looks Like You

Looks Like You by Melodie Yvonne Ramey

Looks like you’re having a comfortable ride in that car that I built for two
Looks like you’re having an easy time, though, that seat wasn’t made for you
You’ve taken advantage of my little life and you’ve used me through and through
You’re such a seductive little whore always looking to suck someone new

A single white female, your copy paste face changes lies like a bloody chameleon
You exploit your friends, set your table with men, and ignore them except when it’s mealtime
A canvas so blank, you are void like white paint, mostly harmless till you get your hooks in
And then it’s too late ‘cause you’ve super glued fate like an ear to an open mouthed Tyson

Looks like you’re having a comfortable ride in that car that I built for two
Looks like you’re having an easy time, though, that seat wasn’t made for you

I wish I was free, but bound we will be for handles are not often shaken
As much as I run it’s like you’ve got a gun held up to my mind that you’ve taken
So I guess I’ll just hide, stay hidden inside, ‘til your beasts sleeps that I have awakened
And then I’ll be rid of your intricate web and I’ll pray that you leave me forsaken

Looks like you’re having a comfortable ride in that car that I built for two
Looks like you’re having an easy time, though, that seat wasn’t made for you
Looks like you’re having a comfortable ride in that car that I built for two
Looks like I cared, well, that’s where you erred, I’ll set fire to myself when I’m through

Melodie Yvonne

Melodie Yvonne, lead photographer and owner of Photographic Melodie, grew up in the small southern Indiana town of North Vernon. She picked up her first camera at the age of 5, and was immediately hooked. By the age of 15 she began to turn every trip, even just to the local park, into a fantasy scene of her own imagination, and started mentoring with many local professionals. Melodie received an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Technologies majoring in Photography from Ivy Tech in 2002 after studying under acclaimed professors and many other masters in the field.

Melodie’s main focus has always been music photography. Growing up listening to many amazing musicians inspired her dream to create visual images that made people feel the way they do when listening to music. Her goal was to help people SEE the music.

Melodie has done numerous jobs around the country ranging from working for bands to being the official photographer on many southern Indiana Poker Runs. Her specialties are in nature, music, and candid event photography. She published her first print work, a collection of images & poetry, in 2011, and has since published many more print works. Melodie currently acts as owner & lead photographer at Photographic Melodie, House Photographer for Purdue Theatre, and Tour Photographer for multiple Billboard Charts topping bands as well as freelance work with many other media outlets, venues, and musicians.
