It’s a song written about dreams and ambition - I wrote it when I was 12 it was my first song :-)

Maybe (written 3 years ago)

I wrote this when I was 12. After ‘Maybe’, I wanted my next song to be more up beat, and fun! The song is about growing up and making my own decisions. I have kept it on my page as this song (and Maybe) was the start of it all!

A Little Bit Closer (written 3 years ago)

This is a remastered version.
This was written at the age of 12 :-)

‘A Little Bit Closer’ (written 3 years ago)

‘The trials and tribulations in your life do not build character. They reveal it’

BETRAYED (written 3 years ago)

It’s about taking the tube to school every day in Central London. The tube is so busy. Its rarely an enjoyable journey, yet strangely London has a way of making you feel excited and exhilarated! 
Even a hot tube journey can’t stop us! I love seeing people on the tube. It’s strange because you interact with so many different people every day….but that moment is quickly forgotten.

This song has reached the final of the 2023 Song Academy song writing competition - Jimmy Napes / Plested

Central Line to town

It’s about life and ambition. Don’t just dream it, do it!

I wrote Drunken Fist as I think its a good way to 
explain the feeling of determination and fighting for something. Drunken Fist is a martial art where the movements and motions seem unplanned, yet they are defined by years of training. Sometimes in life when we fight for a friendship, or a passion, it can seem accidental or aimless, but in reality we have the end goal always in mind. In my case that’s to be a Musician and write good music. 

This is recorded on an IPad.

*Thanks to Joel Baker who inspired me to write this song.

Drunken Fist

I wrote Blue Eyes Green Jacket after seeing a stranger on a bus. I was walking in the rain, and as the bus drove passed I noticed him. The bus was busy and his breath on the window had formed a picture frame around his face. He looked so sad and I noticed his blue eyes….and green jacket. It made me think about who he was and what his life was like.

Blue Eyes Green Jacket

This is part of a live London radio interview I did last year. 
It was to promote my concert in Trafalgar Square. Thought I would share it ☺️

Tyrant

This song is about being happy. It’s about being true to yourself / always doing what you want to do, and taking some risks on the journey. The lyrics are about searching ‘beyond the universe’
…………..only to discover that happiness is with you all the time. 

This is a raw acoustic recording. I decided not to over produce the song as I thought it suits the vibe and the lyrics. (Written and recorded on an iPad)

Beyond The Universe Lyrics (Copyright Mia Wilks PRS) 

Space and time no longer matter
I have endless hours endless time 
Like the tides at sea
Time don’t bother me 
There is nothing beyond the universe
There is nothing left to see
No more searching everywhere 
My heart’s calm, you can see me 

Beyond the universe
Beyond the universe 
90 billion light years across
I no longer need to ask 
I no longer need to see
My heart is calm I can just be me 

My life in motion is now complete
‘Forever’ seems so good, all that’s mine 
Like kites dancing the sky
They cannot resist to fly
Until the clouds begin to cry all the time 
Like the sky at night
Forever reaching everywhere 
I have everything I need here 
My heart’s calm I can just be me

Beyond the universe
Beyond the universe 
90 billion light years across
I no longer need to ask 
I no longer need to see
My heart is calm I can just be me 

Beyond the universe
Beyond the universe 
90 billion light years across
I no longer need to ask 
I no longer need to see
My heart is calm I can just be me

Beyond The Universe (Acoustic Raw)

I wrote this song about coming together when times are difficult. 
I wanted to use sand to represent a collective goal. In Spain there is a saying Mi granito de arena, which means My little grain of sand. If we all help towards a common goal then great things can happen. Like sand, each grain is small but collectively it can stop a flood. 

This track (and the harmonies) was written and recorded at home on my iPad :-)


Hourglass by Mia Wilks (Copyright Mia Wilks PRS)

I am there for you 
Just hold my hand 
And tiptoe over the mountains
I will hold your heart in place
I am near, feel my breath on your face 

I am there for you
You can reach out your hand
The hourglass, soft falling sand
Time will never disappear for us
I am there for you 
I am there for you
You can reach out your hand
The hourglass, soft falling sand
Time will never disappear for us
I am there for you 

Your pain is transparent
Far reaching inside your soul
You can’t heal the torture you feel
But a few moments pain I can steal
Whispering in the darkness
Secrets you can confess
No blame, your thoughts become the prison 
You can’t see your life’s vision
But I am there for you 

I am there for you
You can reach out your hand
The hourglass, soft falling sand
Time will never disappear for us
I am there for you
I am there for you
You can reach out your hand
The hourglass, soft falling sand
Time will never disappear for us
I am there for you 

There for you 
There for you 
There for you 
There for you 
There for you 
There for you 

I am there for you 
Just hold my hand 
And tiptoe over the mountains
I will hold your heart in place
I am near, feel my breath on your face 

There for you 
There for you 
There for you 
There for you

HOURGLASS

I wrote the song about memories. It’s about forgetting people that are no longer with us only to remember them suddenly from a place or a smell. It’s like glitter, you think it’s all gone but suddenly you see a piece in the corner of the room.

As usual written and recorded on an iPad! 

Finding Glitter (Lyrics and Score Mia Wilks Copyright PRS)

Glitter reminds me of you 
Thousands drop to the floor
When there’s no more 
You catch a sparkle 
From the corner of your eye
Reminds me, though I try
Memories pushed aside
Glitter cannot hide 

Finding glitter
Makes me think
A little treasure
Makes the link
Between now and then
Eyes wide with hope
Dreams wrapped in velvet 
Finding glitter is magic 

Glitter reminds me of you 
Thousands drop to the floor 
When there’s no more
You catch a sparkle 
From the corner of your eye 
Reminds me of the sky 
Memories once now died 
Glitter cannot hide

Finding glitter
Makes me think
A little treasure
Makes the link
Between now and then
Eyes wide with hope
Dreams wrapped in velvet 
Finding glitter is magic 

The thoughts of you
May have floated away
Lost forever in a never ending sea
But glitter reminds me 
With its beautiful shine
How you were so kind
And how we are all fine

Finding glitter
Makes me think
A little treasure
Makes the link
Between now and then
Eyes wide with hope
Dreams wrapped in velvet 
Finding glitter is magic

Finding Glitter

Never Know is a collaboration with the brilliant writer and producer DKTG

Never Know

This track is about a man who can’t change his life because of loss. Many years later he thinks about what could have been. 
I was really interested to write a story for this song. 

Music video out on Friday - You Tube and TikTok

Whisper Lyrics

Here is a man 
With his head in his hands 
Falls from his fingers
Golden yellow sands 
These are the grains 
Of his life passing by
How quickly it went 
And he starts to cry

His life
What had he done
Buried his head
Forgotten his son 
These years had gone 
Melted away
Held out his hand
For his wife to stay 

Here is a man
With his head in his hand
A life of pain
Full of demand
All he wanted 
Was a future of peace
His head hurt so much
When would it cease 

There was a man
Now just spirit and soul
Together again with his wife 
Now his heart is whole 

There was a man
Now just spirit and soul
Together again with his wife 
Now his heart is whole 

His life
What had he done
Buried his head
Forgotten his son 
These years had gone 
Melted away
Held out his hand
For his wife to stay

Whisper

I have written so many songs to get to this point. 
Hope you like ‘Lose Me’ 
Thanks to DKTG for Mastering 

Lose Me lyrics (Copyright Mia Wilks PRS)

I watched you lose me
From afar I could see
We weren’t meant to be
I watched as you lost me
My heart was just with you
But yours was everything 
And everyone else
Instead of being scared to lose you…

We had travelled so much
You and I 
But I couldn’t help but just cry
Hours and weeks gone by
But it was all just a lie
It was time to say goodbye
It made no sense not to try 

It was lost long ago
It wasn’t meant to be so
But you were busy with you 
I understood and I knew
You didn’t belong to me
In the first place
It was written on your face
No more energy to chase 

Lost in your mind
Lost in your sight
Lost in your dreams 
Watched you lose me 
Lost forever 

A tale of two cities 
Of two cities 
Watched as you 
No longer saw me
No longer saw me 
Not in the same way
You lived your life 
Back then 
As I sat back 
And waited 
Waited for me to be lost

I watched you lose me
From afar I could see
We weren’t meant to be
I watched as you lost me
My heart was just with you
But yours was everything 
It was written on your face 
No more energy to chase 

Lost in your mind
Lost in your sight
Lost in your dreams 
Watched you lose me 
Lost forever 

A tale of two cities 
Of two cities 
I watched 
As you no longer saw me 
No longer saw me
I watched you lose me
Watched you lose me

Lose Me

Thanks to Claudio Malz for collaborating on this track.  I wrote the top line and lyrics. Recorded with my vocals.
We’ve blended elements of House and Tech in the track, with Spanish influences. 

Lyrics 

Still need you now 
Still need you now
Still need you now 
Feel your heart pound 
Dance with me 
Hold your hand up
For the world to see 

Please don’t fight this pain
This love was not in vein 
I could feel things weren’t right 
It’s hard to explain
But I can’t put myself through this again 

Please don’t fight this pain
Things haven’t been the same
I could feel things weren’t right
You are not to blame 
Love rushed through us like a hurricane

Still need you now 
Still need you now
Still need you now

Still need you now  (Claudio Malz Collaboration)

This track was written by the brilliant lyricist and Producer DKTG. Thanks so much I loved working on it. 


Nothing At All 


Verse 1

I've been on the hunt searching for truth
Everything I find just leads me to you
And I've been wondering oh
About the people around 
Everybody trying to prove
How they're lost or they're found 

Chorus 

And baby I know 
That I don't know nothing at all
But Life has a way
Of breaking my fall 
And every step that I take 
Just goes to show
That I know nothing at all 

Verse 2

I've been on my knees praying for you
I hope to God that you pray for me too
And I've been wondering oh
About the people around 
Everybody trying to prove
How they're lost or they're found 

Chorus 

And baby I know 
That I don't know nothing at all
But Life has a way
Of breaking my fall 
And every step that I take 
Just goes to show
That I know nothing at all

Nothing At All

This track is about the journey you take to achieve your goals. It's about enjoying the journey because the destination is never the end. You achieve one goal and then there is always another. 
I am 16 and have been writing my own songs for three years. I wrote the score and lyrics for this track and recorded it on a Mac Book with my own vocals. 
I am developing my sound at the moment but heavily influenced by R&B / Jazz Music. 

Thanks to the brilliant vocalist, lyricist and Producer DKTG for Mastering the track. 

Somewhere In Between (Lyrics) 


Have you noticed 
There’s a ‘between’
Before you get to your purpose in life 
What matters more 
Is the journey to a place
Rather than the place itself 
A whole lot of space 

All that preparation 
It’s what happens along the way 
Patches of grey
Between then and now 
You’ve got to make it happen 
You’ve got to show them how 

All that preparation 
Somewhere between is a vision
Sometimes an indecision 
It’s a plan with revision
A precision

Somewhere in between 
Is where I’ll be seen
Like an eternal routine
Somewhere in between 
If I arrive at the place 
I’ll have nothing to chase
Somewhere in between 

I have noticed 
That this road to where I’m going 
Just keeps getting longer 
Just cause I know 
I won’t ever I won’t never get get there
On my own

All that preparation 
It’s what happens along the way 
Patches of grey
Between then and now 
You’ve got to make it happen 
You’ve got to show them how 

All that preparation 
Somewhere between is a vision
Sometimes an indecision 
It’s a plan with revision
A precision

Somewhere in between 
Is where I’ll be seen
Like an eternal routine
Somewhere in between 
If I arrive at the place 
I’ll have nothing to chase
Somewhere in between 

As my dreams get bigger
So much to consider 
I will never back down 
I will never back down 

Somewhere in between 
Is where I’ll be seen
Like an eternal routine
Somewhere in between 
If I arrive at the place 
I’ll have nothing to chase
Somewhere in between

Somewhere In Between

Lyrics, Score, Production - Mia Wilks 


I wrote this track about not wanting to lose someone. 
Not physical loss but someone who’s going through a tough time and switches off; not able to talk any more.  
The line ‘I will sit with you in the dark’ refers to listening to someone and trying to understand their feelings. It’s about people who can’t be present. 

With You lyrics (Copyright PRS) 

Ever since you went 
I remember when 
We used to talk 
All the days you saw the person that I was 
But it’s all gone now 
But it’s all gone now 

Life was perfect 
With you in it 
Everyday felt like a breeze 
With you in it 
And like a kite on a windy day 
When all your troubles go away 
I felt like that 

‘Cause if you ever came back 
I will sit with you in the dark 
With you
With you
I will sit with you in the dark 
With you
With you
I will sit with you in the dark 
With you 
With you 
I will, I will sit with you in the dark

Ever since you went 
I remember when
We used to talk 
All the days you saw the person that I was 
But it’s all gone now 
But it’s all gone now 

Life was worth it 
With you in it 
Everyday was met with ease 
With you in it 
And like the sky on a night in May  
When all the stars lit up the grey 
I felt like that

Ever since you went 
I remember when
We used to talk 
All the days you saw the person that I was 
But it’s all gone now 
But it’s all gone now 

Life was perfect 
With you in it
Every day had guarantees 
With you in it
And like the the love that I felt on that day
And forever I needed to stay 
I felt like that
