Six Sessions

Where's The Spark (If Not In You)

I’m my mother’s lost child
I froze at such smile
Are you my lost child?
How’d you get into the wild?

How’d you get into the wild?

Impulse arrested spills over
In a split thought, it drove her
Silent screams echo inside flesh
Too young to undergo god’s test
Oh she’s only two of age but she knew well the taste
I’m only two of age and already disgraced

I’m my mother’s lost child
I froze at such smile
Are you my lost child?
How’d you get into the wild?

How’d you get into the wild?

Escape from reality whenever you like
When pain was only a beautiful strike
Could have the perfect crime
Shame it wasn’t the right time
For shit to spill over or this to be my boner

I’m my mother’s lost child
I froze at such smile
Are you my lost child?
How’d you get into the wild?

How’d you get into the wild?

Impulse Arrested (Demo)

Jess is a real person
Who once got bit by an eel
A flipping miracle who survives
Smashing her head against bars of steel
So if she didn’t die on that trampoline
She won’t die from the freaking vaccine

A living walking story
Deserving of green grapes and wine
And someone who will sing 
Oh her glory (AH)
All and all I’m happy she’s okay
My gal just gotta make it
Till her next month of May

And I guess she’s my friend 
Cause she’s a real person (oh oh oh)
Together we get a little messed up
Sometimes that’s just life’s set up
But My favourite thing about Jess 
Is how she’s such a beautiful mess
She’s such a beautiful mess

A living walking story
Deserving of green grapes and wine
And someone who will sing 
Oh her glory (AH)
All and all I’m happy she’s okay
My gal just gotta make it
Till her next month of May

1 2 3 4!

And I guess she’s my friend 
Cause she’s a real person (oh oh oh)
Together we get a little messed up
Sometimes that’s just life’s set up
But My favourite thing about Jess 
Is how she’s such a beautiful mess
She’s such a beautiful mess

Soy una reina nacida en Mayo
Con tres lados
El lado tranquillo
El lado loco y divertido 
E el lado que nunca
Nunca quieres ver

Jess' Song (Demo)

Unused joy shoots out your piercing eyes
Such complexion lies me not
Sits on you like a mirror
To the soul that reads
You weren’t loved properly before
Though it’s easy
You help to the hope of so much more
Know I’ve been sent your way 
As the promised you can’t ignore

You weren’t loved properly before
You weren’t loved properly before
You weren’t loved properly before me

Was there a kind of nothingness
Mistaken for bliss
Or a sense that real life was happening far away
Looking back
Does it all unfold like a tragic play
Very early on
I learned the greatest hack
Believe it or not
Love won’t be given by those who lack 

You weren’t loved properly before
You weren’t loved properly before
You weren’t loved properly before me

Properly (Demo)

I was born in the land of witches
Or maybe that’s just what nan preaches
Either way… Watch out!
Best to keep away, if in doubt

But you don’t keep away, now do ya?
(Oh you don’t keep away)
You don’t keep away now do ya?
(Oh you don’t keep away)
You just cling on me, rub on me
Like resin after touching a tree

I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
(Look pretty, look, look pretty boy)
I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
(Look pretty, look, look pretty boy)
I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
Ah ah ah ah

I’ve had enough of your whimpering
In fact, your mere presence is kinda triggering (ugh)
But I know you’re afraid of this witch
Cause I’ve seen you look at me and flinch

But you don’t keep away, now do ya?
(Oh you don’t keep away)
You don’t keep away now do ya?
(Oh you don’t keep away)
You keep cling on me, that much is true
Like chewing gum stuck under my shoe

I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
(Look pretty, look, look pretty boy)
I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
(Look pretty, look, look pretty boy)
I guess I’ll just sit down and look pretty
Ah ah ah ah

You Don't Keep Away (Demo)

It’s been two years maybe she should get over it
Oh excuse me I didn’t know there was a time limit
I will decide how long it takes me to heal
Don’t you even dare telling me how I should feel

And now you play the dumb card - well fuck me that’s rich
You knew you could be such a little bitch 

Befriend him
Do him
I don’t give a shit
Befriend him
Do him but don’t pull me in
The boy is fucking grim 
Befriend him
Do him
I don’t give a shit
Befriend him
Do him but don’t pull me in
The boy is fucking grim
The boy is fucking grim
The boy is fucking grim

I guess I’m too brutal, too honest
But I can no longer be bothered to stroke your mood
You’ve chosen everyone else over me 
I’m ending this drama you keep turning into my reality 

And now you play the dumb card - well fuck me that’s rich
You knew you could be such a little bitch 

Befriend him
Do him
I don’t give a shit
Befriend him
Do him but don’t pull me in
The boy is fucking grim 
Befriend him
Do him
I don’t give a shit
Befriend him
Do him but don’t pull me in
The boy is fucking grim

You Don't Keep Away MASTER

“First, there was chaos”. In a world of turmoil, exterior as well as interior, Lusa Morena is a reflection of songwriters Bárbara and Bernardo Rodeiro. Their chronic chaos has been beautifully streamlined into a captivating live performance that showcases the band's dynamic songwriting and mesmerising stage presence.
The band's songs are written collaboratively, but the words are Bárbara’s, who writes heart on tongue about her life and emotions. The lyrics have a distinctive voice of unmasked honesty, revealing a strong character struggling with mental health, longing for home and the disappointments of being a small fish in a big pond, but also the joy of friendship, wanting something more and the excitement of a self-defined existence. Framing the words are vigorous guitar riffs, changes between influences, styles, softness and heaviness, resulting in songs tailored to the ecstatic live performances the band provide.
