"A Little Song For You"  
Lyrics and Music: Thaís and Ana Merino

This is mine but you can take it
Better you than what I can make it
Wish a sweet and shiny day for you as well

Being on time is not allowed and
Hurrying time is for the gifted
Take your time and rest, but just inside your shell (rest only into your shell)

Here it goes

Hey, can't see what are you doing?
You don't mind
Hey, you don't really mind, do you?
And all I can say I'll just go away, I'm done for today
Surprise, I've made a little song for you

Being yourself is such a problem
Hard to know what you are saying
People can't get what you do and this is bad (all that you do is so bad)

Never mind, someone will fix it
Pretend he is here to hold it
Go ahead and make the same mistakes again (make the mistakes all again)

A Little Song For You (Making Lemonade)

"You Don't Like Me" 
Lyrics and Music: Thaís and Ana Merino

I tried to be cool
You see me as a fool
With my broken heart
I pick up the parts
I'm watching you go

I tried to say "hi"
But you cut me with "bye"
Just swallowed my tears
Held on to my fears
I look for the reason why

You don't like me
Oh what could I have said?
You don't like me
When I'm starting to play

I spoke about joy
But you crushed my toy
Not a lucky time
I'm turning my ride
Just flat on the floor

And maybe you'll see
It's not about me
I still feel alright
Trying to perceive
I look for the reason why

You don't like me
Oh what could I have said?
You don't like me
When I'm starting to play

This time you got it all wrong
Next time you'll hate some more
'Cause if you can't let your anger inside
I'll take a note for a line

"I Wanna Be" 
Lyrics and Music: Thaís and Ana Merino 

I wanna be, baby, making up my beat
I wanna be maybe out of my pitch
I wanna live the days like nobody could save me from this

I wanna be, baby, watching the skies
I wanna be here waiting a call from Mars
I wanna live my life like nobody could bring me back

Driving on a one-way street
Running and I don't need sleep

I wanna be there for something brand new
I wanna be here to dance out of the blues
I wanna take the chances so I might decide what to do 

I wanna be really enjoying the rain
I'd rather laugh if I'm getting wet  
I want to take off my shoes so I can feel where I am

A chance to see what is coming
Meet me downtown on the moon
It's plain to see where it's going
Somehow I'll find the way through
 
I wanna be, baby, making up my beat
I wanna be maybe out of my pitch
I wanna live the days like nobody could save me from this

"Dear Universe"
Lyrics and music: Thaís and Ana Merino 

C'mon Universe
I might not be your favorite little girl in the world
But anytime
You're there needing a hand, You may call, I will go

It does not seem you've been smiling at me
Did I make some mistake, please tell me

Oh, not again
All my plans falling apart, that's not fair you should know
Once again
Let the dust from a previous burst, To resist is in vain

It does not seem you've been smiling at me
Did I make some mistake, please tell me

Throw me into a place where I have never ever ever ever thought before
Tie my hands so hard that I could never ever ever ever let them free
Broken expectations till you gently show the way, oh sunny day

I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to see
I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to be

Dear Universe
I'll try not to go insane with the circles you go
Please, be kind
I'll be cool, I promise you I'll be waiting my time 

It does not seem you've been smiling at me
Did I make some mistake, please tell me

Throw me into a place where I have never ever ever ever thought before
Tie my hands so hard that I could never ever ever ever let them free
Broken expectations till you gently show the way, oh sunny day

I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to see
I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to be
I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to see
I guess I didn't see what I was supposed to be

You Never Know (Hanson cover - video available)

"Maybe" 
Lyrics and Music: Thaís Merino and Ana Merino

One step forward, nothing left behind
Here it goes: your own mind
Building up your unique time
Precious steps on your way  

Here's to you the fantasy 
And the magic of a new world
Carrying living memories
Be assured you won't be alone
 
Maybe you remember (won't you?)
Won't you look back to what I've told you before?
When this life is going crazy and your thoughts are kinda hazy
Remember who will be nearby

Are you feeling that there's no place to hide? 
Rememberwho will be nearby
If seas are taking place in you eyes, remember who will be, 
Remember who will be, remember who will be by your side

A tiny piece of rock can be a hint 
To a lovely new day
What's on your brain? You don't need the same 
To become what you feel it's right 

Here's to you the fantasy 
And the magic of a new world
Carrying living memories
Be assured you won't be alone

Maybe you remember (won't you?)
Won't you look back to what I've told you before?
When this life is going crazy and your thoughts are kinda hazy
Remember who will be nearby

Are you feeling that there's no place to hide? 
Rememberwho will be nearby
If seas are taking place in you eyes, remember who will be, 
Remember who will be, remember who will be...
 
Pouring rain and sunny day
Will lead your life through a super kind of game

Maybe you remember (won't you?)
Won't you look back to what I've told you before?
When this life is going crazy and your thoughts are kinda hazy
Remember who will be nearby

Are you feeling that there's no place to hide? 
Rememberwho will be nearby
If seas are taking place in you eyes, remember who will be, 
Remember who will be, no matter what, I'll be by your side

"Ghost Ship" 
Lyrics and Music: Thaís Merino and Ana Merino

Cold feeling aside
Nothing to hide
But always something to lie

Make up and Pride
Grieving the living
Side of what's behind

Letters and lines
Beautiful picture
That could show you some kind

Always in time
Building a story
One will never sing out

Is that what you need,
Oh, is that what you need
Oh, is that what you need
Oh, is that what it feels like?

Oh, is that what you need
Oh, is that what you need
Oh, is that what you need
Oh, is that what it feels like?

Filling a cup that is just pouring out
Starting a war with no soldiers beside you
To take the lead of a barely ghost ship
For breaking the jar when there's nothing inside
Nothing inside

Time to wake up
So much to do to make this whole thing work out

Greatness ahead
Not taking the steps and sacrifice to get there 

Letters and lines
Beautiful picture
That could show you some kind

Always in time
Building a story
One will never sing out

Entrevista/Radio Interview - Making Lemonade - UNIFM 94,5  - Dec 7th 2017 (In portuguese)

"Breathing the Sun" (Live version)
Lyrics and music: Thaís and Ana Merino

One day...you decide to leave the rain
Till then, keep me running to feel alive
One can say...it’s safer floating the waves
But I lay...on the words that are yet to be said

Breathing the sun
Clouds I don’t see
Here watching life making ways next to me
Living the day
Scars left unknown
Rolling the dice of the chances to come

And if the wind blows there
Layers of feelings that’ve never been shared
Step on the rocks, against the stream
Get in the game that is leading you here

Silence...no one seems to walk in this town 
Frightening...but a warm heart beating inside 
My friend...bring the sword, ‘cause I’ve got the lamp
And I must pray...I keep facing you smiling again

Though my body is broken
With the wrong words spoken
There’s a living sign of light
