We walk through life
With weights on our shoulders
We breathe secrets
Our pockets are filled with lies
Who put up these walls
the darkness in these crowded halls
The notes that people pass
and no one ever fights back
Humans are haunted
This wasn’t what I wanted
Sticks and stones can break my bones
but words will always hurt more
plastic teardrops
on thick skin
a heart made of glass
can easily shatter

Maya told me ‘bout this place,
It’s name is Walden.
It’s the type of place where
Silence ain’t golden.
Apart from when we’re chilling at the rock.
Better be there 9 o’clock,
Or everyone will be in shock, yah.
When we don’t hear your number…
It’s the middle of the summer
And we all having a blast
Better enjoy every second,
‘Cause you know that it won’t last.
It will all be in the past
Pretty soon.
In my room,
It’s Arturo
And he boom.
Every time he hit the software,
All the pretty people zoom
Onto him.
Though that’s another topic of discussion.
I’m here to talk about here.
So, please open your ears
and listen very carefully.
You see,
They told me I would not have wifi for a solid 5 weeks
At that moment man I freaked,
Cuz usually I am a geek.
But I realized that it is ok,
‘Cause either darn way
I’m having fun every single moment of the darn day.
Man it’s great…
You can really feel the love,
Until that very last moment when we are all sharing hugs.
…
And since we talking ‘bout love
Old school got some. (←shoutout to Terry-“Old school got love”)

i. too late
i wish
i knew
who you once were
i wish
i knew
your games
i wish
i knew
what you’ve
been through
i wish
i knew
your pain
ii. willpower
the sun has gone
fading colors disappear
we walk alone
the madness is near
far away
i’m watching my tears fall into pools
i shouldn’t be here wanting
i guess i’m just another fool

Maya Engenheiro: Hideout

I’m dancing in the rain feel it pour upon my skin
But it fills my lungs and I start to drown
Swept off my feet again
I’m singing in the shower taste the droplets on my tongue
but it consumes me and my voice gets weak
swept off my feet again
Bridge:
And I know that we can’t always get out way
when thunder crashes
and lightning strikes
I lose myself all over again
Chorus:
Show me a hideout
Where I can swim so deep I won’t drown ‘cause
You’ll be there
I’m not scared anymore
I’m high up in the clouds can’t feel the ground below
but I lose control
and I can’t float
I’m just falling down again
I’m laughing in your arms
feel the burning in my chest
But you start to fade
And I can’t explain the way I feel
I’m just falling down again
Time ticks on
And this moment is just a flicker
Time ticks on
am I dreaming or is this real…
