genre: electro/alternative, pop

VERSE 1
is it too late
i shouldn’t stay
past the sun down
when there's someone
sleeping at home
lying unbeknownst

Its only talk
thoughts are just thoughts
but are they allowed
when they've all run
far from their gun
and now this tangle mounts

so have I

Come too close
  I should’ve never
  Let this grow
If I had known
  I would've never 
  Let it unfold
Now hit the road
  cuz I couldn’t ever
  steal what’s sold
So here I go
  and I'll say I've severed
  what could’ve belonged to me

VERSE 2
now i’m awake
and i replay
what we spoke out loud
what do i make 
what do i change
or let the leaves brown, ‘cause

this ain't the way
this ain’t the space
where these cares can mount
So what do you want
And What do I want
i'm all washed with doubt

so i have

Come too close
  I should’ve never
  Let this grow
If I had known
  I would've never 
  Let it unfold
Now hit the road
  cuz I couldn’t ever
  steal what’s sold..

BRIDGE
now i see, I never chose
With you standing close to me
Now Im between do or don't
The edge of where they each could lead

i see what I should've known
With you looking back at me
but this opening has closed
So shut your eyes and retreat 

Cuz we've
Come too close
I should’ve never
Let this grow
If I had known
I would've never
Let it unfold
Now hit the road
cuz I couldn’t ever
steal what’s sold
So here I go
and say that I've severed
what could’ve belonged
What should've belonged
What would’ve belonged to me.


Come Too Close

genre: singer songwriter, slight rocky/alternative tones

Hey there
What did you say there
did you ever mean it
Before you took 'em away

Cuz i was there
Letting it all out like air
let it all free wheeling
But weren't you were the same

But now i don’t know what I know
was that you or what you told
Cuz every time i was, all for believing
now these 400 days
play it back

The yesterdays then 
The conversation threads
All the promises
That we'd stay the same

But now the silence stares
now this space instead
quietly left everything
And tiptoed out of place

So now i don’t know what I know
what was you or what you told
And every time i was
  all for believing
  now these 400 days
 
Cuz what you wanted you didn't ever let me know
You shut it down and let a mask show 
The ending stains
  all the days to the beginning
  all the 400 days
  i played back

Play It Back

genre: electro/trip hop

Is this working
Is this turning
Into what i need
So badly, 

this,
conversation,
invitation
lit a spark and
now it won't leave 

PRE-CHORUS
so did we change direction
Leave a new impression
Cuz now I feel my heart beat

And this pillar's distance
That i held persistent
Is starting to become weak

CHORUS
So underneath the wires
falling through the quiet
Is there something I didn't used to see
here the walls are hiding
here the dark’s unblinding
waking every possibility
That who you are and
who i am is
Coming clean

VERSE 2
4am and
All is down then
We find space under the streetlights

I'm awake not
thinking straight cuz
Who you are, i finally need

PRE-CHORUS
The air outside is lifting
The words you say are fitting 
Piecing parts i had missed

So all the thoughts we're freeing
let them breathe or leave them
Cuz now we stand in between

CHORUS
So underneath the wires
falling through the quiet
Is there something I didn't used to see
here the walls are hiding
here the dark’s unblinding
waking every possibility

CHORUS part 2
Cuz everything inside is
Jumbling all the lines that
Guided me up to this very street
What was wrong and right is
losing all its science
Am I missing something that you keep
So who you are and
Who i am is
coming clean

Chorus I

genre: singer-songwriter, kinda jazzy ish, slightly country

i know i won't forget the things we used to say
things i thought we'd always mean
but words they come and go and easily they flee
slip away as if never told

but it's not that easy
for me to, forget

so how it comes and goes
i could never take it
i could never just, admit

but there's no easy way out
there's just the long way round
and i'm going now

VERSE 2
So did you see the sign 
the one lit up with green
the one i thought we'd never meet
but now we've reach the point
there's nothing left to reap
just memories should i shouldn't I keep

but it's not that easy, 
for me to, understand

so how these things must change 
I could never take it
I could never just, release

but there's no easy way out
there's just the long way round
but i'm going now

Long Way Round

Genre: its a bit of a mash, electro-y, acoustic ish, pop, r&b

wait
and stay
‘cause this maze
is worth fighting for

this might, change
this might, break
but be brave
and bring who you are

and meet me there
underneath the stars
where the shadows dare
to take off their masks 
and this will be
where forever starts
so take your place
and off our marks

and hold on

some days
fade away
fade and stain
and mould our hearts

but today
all this will change
when distance caves 
and we relight our spark

so meet me there
underneath the stars
where the shadows dare
to take off their masks 
and this will be
where forever starts
so take your place
and off our marks

and hold on

so will you meet me there
underneath the stars
and we will tear,
these walls all around
and this will be
where forever starts
so do you dare
to come
unmasked

Meet Me There 2013/14

Genre: old-school, swing, vintage, a bit country, think along the lines of Meghan Trainor-ish..

Notes: Carillons a Musique is french for music box, Just seems cool to make it fancy.. :D

 I'm waiting
By the station
replaying
conversations
we had last night
On the detoured walk home

and it's easy
Flowing freely
Was it really
Eight weeks
Since I'm sorry
What was your name, again

Cause somehow
I don't know how
I already know you and you know me
Why you worry
why you  hurt
don’t gotta say loud

And what's right here’s 
  a real thing
and not fleeting / 
keeps beating
like an old tune
feelin' brand new
everytime 
         
so tell me why you're hiding behind this wall
All of the words that you keep indoors
let these fears fall out, and i'll smooth it all out
'cause that's what old friends are for
 
when you're tired
you can wind this
tune i'm writing
and  i'm right here
Hear i love you
Press repeat and
Rewind

**Instrumental**

A2
lately
it's crazy
Summer's waiting
it’s all   changing
And to move on’s 
so hard
when you don't know how    
     
so in these times
When it feels like
You can't see where new roads lead
I'm beside you
we’ve all night
To cry it all out

when the sun lights
when the  birds cry
when the moon shines
and dark's nigh
I’ll still  love you
and hold you, tight

B2
And this is a pact i will uphold, that
this is worth keeping going forward
and all of this distance, won't have a way
to take what we got here, safely stored
  
when you're tired
you can wind this
tune i'm writing
i'm right here
Hear i love you
Press repeat and
Rewind

Open this old tune
written for you
to find

Carillons A Musique (Production Version)

Genre: triphop/hiphop, pop

Less Production Version: https://soundcloud.com/writtenbymaianne/demo-daybreak-mai-anne

I'm tired
of fighting
i am still here

i’ve stayed quiet
burned in silence
i am still here

but when the daybreak comes 
  i’ll be awake
when the daybreak comes
  i’ll be awake
I’ve waited long enough
  so don’t ask me to stay
when the daybreak comes
 i’ll be on my way

Where I have been
Where i need to be
A thousand skies wide

But I have stood halfway
watch clocks tick and take
and I’m not fine

So when the daybreak comes 
i’ll be awake
so when the daybreak comes
i’ll be awake
And when the sunlight falls
don’t ask me to stay
So when the daybreak comes
And i’ll be on my way

cuz i just wanna be
right there beside you
cuz i just wanna be
right there beside you

so when the daybreak comes 
i’ll be awake
and when the daybreak comes
i’ll be awake
cuz i’ve waited long enough
 so don't ask me to stay
So when the daybreak comes
And i’ll be on my way

cuz i just wanna be
right there beside you
cuz i just wanna be
right there beside you
and if this is everything
then this is everything i need to
cuz i just wanna be
right there beside you

Daybreak (Production Version)

Genre: acoustic, singersongwriter, could go either more r&b or rock 

So this cycle
Takes awhile
But we come back around

And im sorry
Really sorry
The silence drowns it all out

So here we are again at this roundabout
I’ll Pack your reasons Inside and hold it down
Say sorry again until it counts
did it before but

Chorus
now i think that I can live without
You and me
And now I think I wanna do without,
This losing routine
So its time for you to leave my house
give back the second key
     and after all, after all
     what was this for, was it for
     when you leave effortlessly 

V2
this standstill
Goes uphill
If I learn to move on
But who you used to be
Still pulls at me
but while you’ve put me on hold,

All the days in between are adding up
all the cracks underneath are coming to the top
So the distance is proving I'm not fond enough, anymore

Chorus

bridge
now, what you say
what you say
it doesn’t make up

all the days
in the shade
it only goes up to here
it can only go up to here

chorus

and is this all, is it all
after all,
and nothing left to see

Verse 1
All the things I thought I was
I was never right
All the things I hid from me  
turned out to be, what gives me light

what it is, what this is
All the things i'm feeling
and this time i’ll let it fly

Chorus

And your eyes wake me
I will, say yes
So when you come and take me
your hand out waiting
I will, say yes
  and step in, this
  opening
  and Begin

Verse 2
Your eyes look at me with
nothing to hide
what they say and how they say it
makes me want to try

so here it is here it is
all the things you bring in
And this time i’ll put down      my fight

Chorus
So when you come and take me
And your eyes wake me
I will, say yes
So when you come and take me
your hand out waiting
I will, say yes

And your eyes wake me
I will, say yes
So when you come and take me
your hand out waiting
I will, say yes
  and breathe in
  this feeling
