Lana Del Rey. Gaga I think is better at melodies though

The first people to come to mind are Bjork, Lana Del Rey, Kate Bush, and Fiona Apple

Soft, soothing, and succulent

Mariah Carey

Some examples: 

The Roof

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed for such a long long time
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain

My All

Baby, can you feel me?
Imagining I'm looking in your eyes
I can see you clearly
Vividly emblazoned in my mind
And yet you're so far
Like a distant star
I'm wishing on tonight

The Art Of Letting Go

Evidently your words were merely lies
Reverberating in my ears
And the echo won't subside
There's deep, deep loss of hope
And the anger burns in me
I hope you don't get no ideas 'bout reuniting, baby
'Cause that's the last thing I truly need
Your audacity is too much to be believed, so
Go to "Mimi" on your contacts, press delete

I Only Wanted

Doesn't it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldn't love ever be
Something tangible and real
Farewell, fair weather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again

Looking In

She smiles through a thousand tears
And harbors adolescent fears
She dreams of all
That she can never be
She wades in insecurity
And hides herself inside of me

Honourable mentions: Portrait, Givinh Me Life, Faded, Close My Eyes, Outside, The One, My Saving Grace, Twister, Petals, Can’t Take That Away, Underneath The Stars, Vision Of Love. 

 

When we're not together tell me everything's gonna be alright

“I’ve been lost since the teens but pretend it’s all alright,
All my ups led to falls that led to trying to end my life,
Just a boy from the start, they lent on like a man
You were meant to be my friend and not to take all that you can.
Disengage to create, try to reinvent the wheel,
No one knows what they want so I just give you what I feel,
If I slip and get high I know the low is always near,
When I’m down I never see you, when I’m up you all appear.

It’s been a long year,
And we’re not even halfway there.”

- End of Youth by Ed Sheeran

Goddamn, man child
You act like a kid even though you stand six foot two
Self-loathing poet, resident Laurel Can-you-know-it-all
You talk to the walls when the party gets bored of you
But I don't get bored, I just see it through
Why wait for the best when I could have you?
You
