Lyrics:

Verse
I miss the music in the morning 
I miss the way you made it shine
A little brighter, a little warmer
The right kinda reason to stay inside

But it’s getting cold, it’s getting dark
The days are so long 

Chorus
So we’ll laugh in the rain and smile in the cold
Then run through the fire and dance in the glow
Whatever it takes to see you smile 
You’re all that I need to make it worthwhile

(and) For all the times (that) we wish we’d known 
And all the mistakes we just can’t let go 
I’ll hold your hand and you’ll hold mine
It’ll never be perfect but it'll be just fine


Verse/Bridge
I’ve been waiting, you’ve been waiting
We’ve been waiting, such a long time
But now it’s time to let it go
The sky is falling, the fire’s raging
We can’t be wasting anymore time 

Chorus
So we’ll laugh in the rain and smile in the cold
Then run through the fire and dance in the glow
Whatever it takes to see you smile 
You’re all that I need to make it worthwhile

(and) For all the times (that) we wish we’d known 
And all the mistakes we just can’t let go 
I’ll hold your hand and you’ll hold mine
It’ll never be perfect but in the end it’ll be just fine

Verse 1 
Well I been thinkin
Thinking about -  the way you make me feel                            
It’s hard to say 
It’s all going so fast
But i like it! - Yeah it’s really not all that bad

Chorus 1   
It’s just like:  sunshine and rainbows
A puppy sleeping on my toes
It’s like coco by the fire with a blanket and my favorite snacks

The way you walk and hold my hand
The way you always understand
It’s like I found the perfect hoodie and I’m never gonna give it back

I think I like you

Verse 2
Well I been dreamin.. (dreamin) 
Dreamin about the way that it could be…..

run away with me
gettin a little carried away
but i like it (it really aint so bad)

Chorus 2:   
It’s just like:  sunshine and rainbows
Kitten kisses on my nose 
It’s like a perfect moment captured with a polaroid photograph 

The way you talk and hold my hand
Pretend u like my favorite band
I found ya gonna keep ya i aint never gonna give u back

I guess I like you

Chorus 3:  
It’s just like -  candy and funny memes
Boardwalk fries  and free Ice cream 
Watchin’ shootin’ stars makin’ wishes never lookin back

The fact I Never have to ask
They way you put up with my *pause, emphasis on the ‘s’* sass
I found ya gonna keep ya, i ain't never gonna give u back

I really like you

Sober (Demi Levato) - feat. Rina Huang

Our latest original song! Just wrapped it up for a local songwriting competition. Send us some feedback (good or bad). Hope you enjoy!

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Waging a war inside our heads
There will be battles we can’t win
Leaving the scars that we’ll never forget 
 
Sometimes defenses are too thick
Even when walls are caving in 
Build them up, tear them down
Start again    

Pre-Chorus 1
Change all the rules that don't make sense 
Discard the pieces that don’t fit   
It’s not enough but it’s enough to begin

Chorus
Looking up, pushing on
Digging in, staying strong
We live; we live on
We live on

Verse 2 
A heart beats soft; t’s hard to admit
Sometimes it's on us
And were just learning to live

Incomplete but never broken
Start over again
Start again 

Pre-Chorus 2
Break all the rules that don't make sense      
Fill in the pieces that they missed 
It’s not enough but it’s enough to forgive

Chorus (repeat)
Looking up, pushing on  
Digging in, staying strong
We live; we live on
We live on
 
Bridge/ Pre- Chorus 3
We can always start over
Never broken

Forget the rules that don't make sense   
Find the right pieces to make it all fit

Chorus 3
Looking up, pushing on
Digging in, staying strong
Yeah we live, we live on

Build a bridge, burn it down
Close a door, turn around
We live; we live on
We live on

Never Broken (We Live On) - Rina Huang

Sometimes it takes a bit to process and accept an untimely loss.  

I wrote this one in collaboration with Rina Huang, Katherine Mao, and Meghan Vu

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
730 for the last time Pick up the  phone
I’m in a hurry getting worried - I Just need to know -
I need to know  

Last night? Last ride baby where did you go?
I’m driving faster meet me anywhere  
Just get off the road , get off the road
But I need to to know

Chorus            
I’m on my way there
I’ll meet you anywhere
Just one more time, just one more time - one more...

Verse 2                          
830 gettin’ blurry feeling like I’m alone
Movin’ slow thinkin’ fast - thinkin’ I should I have known?
I should I have known

Was it me? Was it my fault? where did you go?                
Wish I could of wish you would of - Damnit Pick up the phone !
Pick up the phone
Cuz I need to know

Chorus
I’m on my way
I’ll meet you anywhere
Yeah I’ll be waiting, i’ll be waiting Just hold on
