A handful of dry soil, piles of dirt
One bedroom house souvenirs that hurt
A dog without a name a gun on my side
A face without a feeling that used to smile
At everything and everyone
At little things that gave me fun
It all comes back to me for a little while
I used to smile
I used to smile
Now I’m a castaway in a desert isle
I used to smile

The tide has turned but I never learnt
Everything in this life has been made to burn 
Money and beauty, Desire and duty 
The power, the glory, every silly love story 
The good and the evil and all that’s between
The present and the future and all that has been
Compressed in my head like a windows zipped file
Scars on this face that it used to smile
I used to smile
Now I’m a castaway in a desert isle
I used to smile

This is my home now, I ain’t complain
I’m human and humans can bear the pain
Tomorrow is another day my dear
A promising daylight my crush the fear

I used a piece by John Dowland "Lachrimae Antiquae" filtered with a low pass, then I took my track "caos11" and some of the material I had used to prepare it to create a mix between the two pieces.

Lachrimae Antiquae (caos11 remix) - disquiet0634

MARIA

Lyrical aggression

"Mary" is a melodic tale of searching and finding, encapsulating the universal quest for something that feels missing in our lives. Through the character of Mary, with her ginger hair and sense of incompleteness, Lily-Mae explores the idea that sometimes, what we're searching for is right in front of us. This song weaves a narrative of longing, realization, and the joy of finding what makes us whole. With its catchy chorus and vivid storytelling, "Mary" resonates with anyone who's ever felt a void, only to discover that fulfillment lies in connection and love. It's a musical journey from longing to completeness, inviting listeners to reflect on their own "Mary" moments.

Welcome to the emotional landscape of Lily-Mae, a songwriter and performer who invites listeners into her world through vivid storytelling and heartfelt melodies. Here, every song is a journey through the complex terrain of young emotions, from the pangs of unrequited love to the struggles of self-identity and the battles with one's inner critic.

In her music, Lily-Mae navigates the intricate dance of growing up, capturing the essence of youthful longing in "You're in my cup of coffee," where she portrays the intensity of a one-sided affection with both desperation and a whimsical willingness to give everything for just a moment of recognition. This track, emblematic of her style, combines earnest lyricism with a raw, evocative delivery that begs the listener to see her, truly see her, in all her vulnerability.

"I’ll be your porcelain doll" takes a different turn, delving into the introspective conflict of self-evolution against the backdrop of turning 15. Through this song, Lily-Mae articulates the universal feeling of being lost in the transition, yearning for change while grappling with the fear of speaking out and the desire to conform. It's a confession of the internal dialogues that shape us, wrapped in a melody that both soothes and stirs.

"My mind racing with thoughts" offers a candid look at anxiety and self-doubt, exploring the silent battles fought in the recesses of one's mind. Lily-Mae's ability to personify her inner turmoil into a voice that disrupts and dictates, brings an intimate understanding of mental health struggles, making her music not just relatable, but also a source of comfort for those who see their reflections in her words.

Lily-Mae's music is more than just a collection of songs; it's an invitation to experience the raw, unfiltered essence of growing pains, the beauty of vulnerability, and the strength found in honesty. Her music resonates with anyone who's ever felt overlooked, misunderstood, or just too tangled in their thoughts. Join her as she turns her musings into melodies, offering both a mirror and a window into the soul of youth.
