"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

"Would You Let Me" 
Lyrics and Music: Thaís and Ana Merino

Many rough times we've been through
Cannot lie, I fell down too
Walked the roads I thought I could have found someone like you
 
Out to space not fast enough 
Annoying day, don't stop the flow!
Turn my head just to be sure  that I won't let you go

So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective I bring with me when I come back
So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective ingrained in me when I come back
 
Among the lies I find the truth
And that brings me a perfect mood
I don't care how clear I am when I say that to you

Where's the light I'm looking for?
Read the book twice for the cure
Grab the tips, I have my fist, I wouldn't let it leave

So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective I bring with me when I come back
So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective ingrained in me when I come back

Turn the cloudy days into something true
The gray inside this head must be colorful
Why don't you fill the place if you have the right pace
Give it one more try and make it new

So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective I bring with me when I come back
So maybe you would let me go inside
And see the beauty in things right through your eyes 
A new perspective ingrained in me when I come back

"A Play a Day"
Lyrics and music: Thaís and Ana Merino

Some words to say
Not even one is said
Don't look at me
It might become too bad 

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out 
Maybe it is

In a way
Reminds me of the past
Why don't you leave? 
And lay here just the best

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out
Maybe it is time

I feel like waiting for the last scene
For a green screen
Switching all the backgrounds
I feel like waiting for the last scene
Before I could scream
Baby, it's time to go

The easy days
Will come it up for sure
The hardest ones 
Oh, they scare me, Lord!

Chills in, breathe out, maybe it's time to run out 
Maybe it is

This silence can't be quiet, you know
There's more running inside and it's supposed to go
Shyness overload, stubborn on the road

A pray a day and I'll let it show
A pray a day and I'll let it flow
A pray a day and I'll let it show
A play a day and I'll let it grow
A play a day and I'll let it grow
A play a day

"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

Ghost Ship (Making Lemonade)

"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
