why mona - beauty queen why mona 2024-09-27 | We are so excited to bring back why mona originals to you, starting with this special one about how time changes many things, but love remains the same. Hope you enjoy 😌 fanlink.tv/wmbquLYRICS I walked into a still frame of a movie with no end There were so many ghosts but i was not afraid of them We were shadows and shells of ourselves Stories and dreams up on shelves Dreamers and lovers and friends But we’re not young like we were then And you were so near but so far Just a boy and his guitar No matter how long we’re apartYou never change who you are Yeah you keep doing what you do Playing your cards too soon Making all the sad girls swoon While you’re singing And me wearing my heart on my sleevePosing like a beauty queen Wondering if you still love me Now that you have her I saw into the future of our world before it ends I saw you in the corner of the chaos making friends You were cool as a rockstar should be And you seem to like what you see Bring up the song you wrote for me Then casually say your married I make an excuse to head out “My head hurts I need to lay down” I stumble running through the crowd Now I just can't stop thinking about How you keep doing what you do Playing your cards too soon Making all the sad girls swoon While you’re singing And me wearing my heart on my sleevePosing like a beauty queen Wondering if you still love me Now that you have herWake me up when its overWake me up when its overWake me up when we're older And you're singing You're singing You're singing And its over

Why Mona - Forest Green remix (DEMO) why mona 2023-09-29 | Pluto made a slick little remix to “forest green,” another of our faves, and a very personal song to me. 💚🌲LYRICS:It's only fiveHow is it night again? Three glasses of wine I have a good cry Only miss you cuz there’s no one elseSay I prefer to be by myself But I do want to be lovedGod it’s so hard not to be loved And oh everything’s fine Some people get lonely What's one more night wishing on empty skies When all I see is forest green and Your footprints before me In my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for me I’ve heard it saidThat loneliness is not a lack of affection, it's a lack of direction There they go looking for fun Starting wars they’re falling one by one When they just want to be loved Everyone just wants to be loved And oh everything’s fine Just ignore my body I know this time the problem is in my mind But all I see is forest green and your footprints before meIn my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for meLight rain on the pavement Sit in the silence Tend to the garden and wait You whisper to me And I run to You and You’re waiting there with open arms And all I see is forest green and Your footprints before me In my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for me
Why Mona - 4.10 (DEMO) why mona 2023-09-21 | Family relationships are complicated enough as it is, but feeling misunderstood or disapproved of by loved ones can make life all the more difficult to navigate. I’ve had to learn that you can’t alway please the people you were raised with at the expense of being your own person and living your own life, no matter how much you love them. And that’s ok 🩵LYRICS:If you love me, then you love meAnd they can't take that away If you’re always thinking of me, did you think of me today When I was lying in my bed looking at the moon Crying cuz I know you never could approve of who I am? But you made me, so why did you make me this way? Don’t you know I would do anything for ya?I would go to battle, I would bleed for ya I’m a dreamer, a believer Live my life in the light and the stage Blood and water, I’m your daughter, and our cord is still leading the way So why’d you have to go and make me feel like I’m evil?All I ever wanted to do is please you And you made me, and the others still love me this way I don’t have anyone I can call my own So I have nothing to live for but your loveDon’t you know I would do anything for ya?I would go to battle, I would bleed for yaI’ll try to be brave We all knew the parade would end And I’m not a mistake But maybe I’m an alien I get restless and feel crazy Sing over me like a baby and smile like you mean it Cuz maybe I’m an alien Don’t you know I would do anything for ya?I would go to battle, I would bleed for ya Don’t you know I’m your blood I will never leave ya I would go to battle, I would bleed for ya
Why Mona - Quintana Roo remix (DEMO) why mona 2023-09-08 | As promised, here is a remix Pluto made to one of our favorite tracks together. The song started as a poem I wrote on a beach in Cancun in Quintana Roo, Mexico. The beaches were so stunning and the water so mesmerizing, that I fell in love.
Why Mona - Jump (DEMO) why mona 2023-08-31 | So we actually made this song a few years ago but never released it because we sort of changed directions musically soon after. I thought it would be fun to share it with you here. We love experimenting with different genres 🙂LYRICSYou’re always blowing in from out of town To be the one to rescue me You must be hoping that I’ll come around But I never said that I need rescuing And it's so romantic the way that you’re holding my hand I know that you want me, but it's going to take more than that Cuz I need a man that can get on the level I’m atSo how high can you jump baby jump baby jump baby?How high will you jump for me jump for me jump for me?Give me what I want baby jump for me jumpWhen I tell you jump baby, then you say how high?How high? How high? Came out here hunting and I shoulda known You’d try to move in for the killDon’t really wanna do this thing alone But if you are not up to it, you know I willAnd it's so romantic the way that you’re gazing at meBut I’m not a damsel, I am a fighter, I am a QueenAnd I want a man that can ride into battle with me So how high can you jump baby jump baby jump baby?How high will you jump for me jump for me jump for me?Give me what I want baby jump for me jumpWhen I tell you jump baby, then you say how high?How high? How high? How high? How high? How high?So wine and dine me boyThat’s the least that you can doSerenade me with songs you wrote about me tooKnow I love it but you’ve still got a lot to prove You do, you doSo how high can you jump baby jump baby jump baby?How high will you jump for me jump for me jump for me?Give me what I want baby jump for me jumpWhen I tell you jump baby then you say how high?How high? How high? How high? How high? How high?
Why Mona - the hive (DEMO) why mona 2023-08-24 | This track is about feeling trapped in a culture of hive mentality where people blindly follow a group belief instead of thinking for themselves, and then act with hostility towards anyone who believes differently. It’s a toxic trait within today’s society that keeps us divided. We need more people to seek truth for themselves and be open to productive conversations with people with different opinions. 🙏🏽LYRICS:All of the people at my table speak a language I don’t know I’m not blending in the way I used to Gotten too used to truth ooh Yeah you walk around talking about justice according to plan With your heart on your sleeve and your sanity slipping right through your hands You’re believing a thing that will ruin you in the end And all I can say is that I hope you change your mind Change your mind I hope you change your mindIt’s all a lie I wanna change your mind while there's still time Want you to change your mind, but it's your life not mine I’m undercover in the unknown I’m a stranger in my own home Can’t find my words cuz I’m afraid toKnow what you’d do if you knew Would you treat me like one of the people you burn with a brand? Wear your heart on your sleeve while your sanity is slipping right through your hands And believing a thing that will ruin you in the end Well all I can pray is that one day you change your mind Change your mind I hope you change your mindIt’s all a lie I wanna change your mind while there's still time Want you to change your mind but it's your life not mine If you get too close to the hive they’ll get to your mind and use you Baby take control of your mind, go back to the life we’re used to If you get too close to the hive they’ll get to your mind and use you Baby take control of your mind, go back to the life we’re used to Your mind oh your mind It’s all a lie Change your mind La da da da daIt's your life not mine
Why Mona - amigo (DEMO) why mona 2023-08-17 | A sweet and simple one about crushing hard on a friend 😇 In case you were wondering why I sometimes sprinkle Spanish into my titles or lyrics, it’s because it’s my Dad’s first language, and I’ve been practicing🌴🇵🇦💙LYRICS:Never seen somebody look so cool Playing drums and wearing cowboy boots babyHaven't you seen the way I look at you?Like I would be your girl if you asked me to If I could just say Amigo tu amor es lo que he querido Quiero ver el mundo contigo Y tenerte bailando conmigo para siempre (Friend, your love is what I have wanted I want to see the world with you And have you dancing with me forever)All my girls say I’m too good for you But they don’t know me in the way you do baby I know we’re friends and baby that's still cool But you could be my man if you wanted to Don’t make me say it Amigo tu risa es el mejor sonido Y tus ojos mi sueño favorito Dime que mi amor es permitido amigo (Friend, your laughter is the best soundAnd your eyes, my favorite dreamTell me that my love is permitted, friend)Got a secret I’m keeping I think of it night and day It’s getting harder to hide tell me why it's gotta be this way I’m dreaming one day you’ll look me in the eye and tell me that you really wanna be my guy and I’ll just say Amigo tu amor es lo que he querido Quiero ver el mundo contigo Y tenerte bailando conmigo para siempre (Friend, your love is what I have wanted I want to see the world with you And have you dancing with me forever)
Why Mona - revelation (DEMO) why mona 2023-08-10 | I recently saw an upsetting film that inspired this song. When we can longer claim innocent ignorance about the evil in this world, we have a responsibility to respond. Complacency will come back to haunt us in the end if we stay silent. May we all be fearless, and fight for what is right in this lifetime. LYRICS:Behold He comes on a cloud for every eye to seeWill you join the fight against the dark or will you watch the world burn?There is only one charge I wanna make against you You’ve forsaken true love for a cheap imitation Turned your eyes to the light to show you what was hidden Now you’ve seen for yourself you can’t pretend you didn’t His eyes search through the earth to and fro For the true sons of light To stand up and fight instead of watch the world burn There’s a poison inside but it’s too dark to mention So we walk around blind entertained to distraction Someone pulled back the veil to show me what was hidden Now I’ve seen for myself and can’t pretend I didn’t (Could it be you could it be you, could it? could it be you baby?)Behold He is coming with the cloudsAnd every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him So it shall be Amen Why do you ignore the knocking on your door?Why do you ignore the knocking on your door ?Will you shut your eyes or will you answer it? There is only one charge I wanna make against you You’ve forsaken true love for a cheap imitation Turned your eyes to the light to show you what was hidden Now you’ve seen for yourself you can’t pretend you didn’t
Why Mona - Castle in the Sky (DEMO) why mona 2023-08-03 | Money is the god of this world, and many people spend their entire lives worshiping it, only to die and realize it was a meaningless pursuit. I never want to be like that. Material things are great but temporary, and there are far more beautiful things in the world worth pursuing that will transcend this life into the next.LYRICS:Don’t let me break Or let me down Don’t let me stumble to the ground Or bend my kneeWe both know money rules the world Like puppets on a string But that's not the kind of girl that you need And in our castle in the sky Baby you’re the guy for me, for me yeah Got diamonds on my mind That money cannot buy So I’m freeYeah I’m freeYeah I’ve tasted and seen all of the finer things But all the kings and the queens of this world leave me wanting So give me truth instead of beauty Give me wisdom and your loveAll the riches of the world will turn to dust But in our castle in the sky Baby you’re the guy for me, for me yeah Got diamonds on my mind That money cannot buy So I’m freeYeah I’m freeWe’re only here for a moment before we fly So baby whatcha gonna take to the other side? Up in our castle in the sky Baby you’re the guy for me, for me yeah Cuz I’m your butterfly And baby you’ll be mine for free We’re free Don't’ let me break don’t let me down Don’t let me fall, fall to the ground Up in our castle in the sky Baby you’re the guy for me, for me yeah Cuz I’m your butterfly And baby you’ll be mine for free We’re free In our castle in the sky Baby you’re the guy for me, for me yeah Got diamonds on our mind That money cannot buy And I’m freeYeah we’re free
Why Mona - Wildfire (DEMO) why mona 2023-07-27 | I wrote this song about mourning the loss of youthful innocence, and then repeatedly rediscovering myself on the other side of it in the most beautiful way imaginable. 🦋Lyrics I said a prayer in the chair by the window at dawn (Couldn’t sleep through the night, something wrong I could feel it)Ran to the garden and all my white roses were gone (Only yesterday alive, pure and lovely, I couldn’t believe it)And it made me so sadHeard I can’t get them back Heaven knows that I’ve gone out and tried Always end up right back by your side Where I watch you ride on the wings of the seven seas and heaven in your eyes And when you held out your hand to me you never looked so beautiful Like lightning across the sky you make me feel alive when you light my fireWildfire You knew me long before the sun and the moon ever shone (It's so good to be alive, can you feel it?)And you went to war with the devil before I was born (Slaying dragons with your light, wind and fire, you know I believe it)So I hate when I’m bad, and I’m working on that But still you bathe me in oil and light And you draw me right back to your side Where I watch you ride on the wings of the seven seas and heaven in your eyes And when you held out your hand to me you never looked so beautiful Like lightning across the sky you make me feel alive when you light my fireWildfire
Why Mona - When the World Was Sleeping (DEMO) why mona 2023-07-20 | Sorry kind of a dark one about the declining state of society and how crucial it is for us to pay close attention to what is happening behind the scenes before we wake up one day in a world we don’t even recognize anymore. 🙃LYRICS:Wake up sleepy headYou’ve been out since the last horizon Danger up ahead It's getting dark and the water’s rising Sailing into the eye of a storm Earth shaking and the skies are weepingIn the end they will say we warned Must have happened when the world was sleeping Tapping s.o.s.No one’s answering Sail’s tearing and the starboard’s caving inDown below all the sirens hope we’ll be lost at seaKeep you quiet with a gag tied around your mouth Turning people into monsters for speaking out While we sleep rearranging things til we’re no longer freeSo wake up sleepy head Wake up sleepy head We’re sailing into the eye of a storm Wind dancing to the sound of weepingIn the end they will say we were warned Must have happened when the world was sleeping We’re sailing into the eye of a storm Is it real? Are we all just dreaming?In the end they will say we were warned Guess it happened when the world was sleeping Saints are praying that we change our course Saints are watching for a man on a white horse While they start another culture war Give them more and more and before we know we’re Sailing into the eye of a storm Earth shaking and the skies are weepingIn the end they will say we were warned Must have happened when the world was sleeping We’re sailing into the eye of a storm Is it real? Are we all just dreaming?In the end they will say we were warned Must have happened when the world was sleeping
Why Mona - irish eyes (DEMO) why mona 2023-07-13 | This song is about being with someone who reminds you of the first time you were truly in love 🙂 The first time I fell in love it felt like life or death, both awful and wonderful at the same time, with a sense of urgency, magic and an all consuming force behind it. I wouldn’t trade that feeling for anything. LYRICSRed lips and fancy wine Pink cotton candy sky Fireworks in July Ooh You got me dreaming of Seashells and turtle doves A Sunday kind of love with you Don’t leave me ever Cuz I’d never get over you Life’s so much better When I’m standing right next to you Coffee and cherry pie Corner of the diner at 22Getting butterflies sitting next you Hang on your every move Mischief and Irish eyes Took me by surprise like you wanted to Dress me up in red like you always do So that you never see me blue You remind me of my first love Makes me wanna tell you Don’t leave me ever Cuz I’d never get over you Life’s so much better When I’m standing right next to youI don’t mean to compare you to the purest love I’ve known Just looking for the kind of soul I've known before I was born You remind me of my first love Makes me wanna tell youDon’t leave me ever Cuz I’d never get over you And life’s so much better When I’m standing right next to youDon’t leave me ever Cuz I’d never get over you
Why Mona - la colina (DEMO) why mona 2023-07-06 | La Colina (the hill) is about how difficult it can be to live in a city like Hollywood and still try to maintain a sense of personal honor. I have found that in order to thrive in this city and in this business it is imperative to have a strong sense of self. For me, that comes from the belief in a higher power, aka God. Most of the time I feel like I’m failing as a human, but this chorus is a reference to Psalm 139 in the Bible that describes how there is nowhere we can run or hide from the One who knows and loves us completely. In a world where nothing is certain and things are constantly changing, I take great comfort in that. 🩷💫LYRICS:You’re to good for me baby, so I run away Do some crazy things, crawl out of my hiding placeJust to see if you’d ever leaveI’ve been testing the limits of a holy grace Could say it’s just how I am, but maybe I’m afraid To believe that you’d cover meI know my feet will never touch the ground until I take your word for it (everywhere I go I feel you like the wind and) And after all the ways I let you down you’re still telling me I’m worth it (even now I know you’re here and that you’re listening)If I traveled up to the heavensSlept under the depths of the sea Could rise up like an eagle on the wings of dawn Or hide down in the darkness with the dead and gone Even there your presence will find me Hike up to the wisdom tree to get my thinking straight It's no ordinary price we pay for living in LA See the cross lit up on the hill? It wants to be my guide All the haters wanna take it down because they hate the light But we’ll never make it in this town unless we take your word for it (read me like a book and tell me what I’m missing)And after all the ways I let you down you make me believe I’m worth it (everywhere I go I know that you are listening) If I traveled up to the heavensSlept under the depths of the sea Could rise up like an eagle on the wings of dawn Or hide down in the darkness with the dead and gone Even there your presence would find me
Why Mona - Dollhouse why mona 2023-06-30 | I don’t know about you, but I still think about the people I used to love. Love doesn’t just entirely disappear if it was real...even if you have moved on from the relationship. So then where does it go? In my imagination all my past loves turn into Ken dolls that all live peacefully in a Barbie dream house together. Weird? Definitely. But it works for me 😎LYRICS:Faded picture of a heart up on the wallIn the corner where our love used to be There’s so many rooms that I can’t count them allKinda lookin like a dollhouse to meRenovating like I should Working on our neighborhood But where does the love go when it’s done? And if it’s gone, is it gone for good?Dream me up then baby put me down Build it up then burn it to the groundI can still hear music, turn the sound up for meYeah, Yeah Pink and purple painted houses by the seaBarbie’s getting hot for summerWhat do you remember when you look at me?Don’t use your new girl for cover We were fire meeting wood On our tree lined neighborhoodBut where did the love go in the end?And if it’s gone, is it gone for good?Dream me up then baby put me down (don’t look for me)Build it up then burn it to the ground (just for me)I can still hear music, turn the sound up for meYeah, Yeah Kenny’s in the back with the other boys Playing hookie like a rookie baby loves his toys I got two more down the hall by the big red door But I never really wander down there no more And they all drive round with me in my open air jeep Talkin ‘bout whatever I wanna Tellin me that’s how it’s gonna be Dream me up then baby put me down Build it up then burn it to the groundI can still hear music, turn the sound up for meYeah, Yeah
Why Mona - Cherry Season (DEMO) why mona 2023-06-22 | Big news…I have decided to start sharing my demos with you regularly in between actual song releases. There are so many unfinished songs we have, and a lot of them I really love, so I figure why not share as much music with you as possible?! Then you can help us decide which ones to finish and officially release 🙂 This week we have my demo “Cherry Season” — picture a dreamy and magical summer’s afternoon in the backyard, and the deliciously palpable energy between two friends experiencing a connection on a deeper level. 🌞🌛🪴Lyrics:You must have gone to heaven baby Just to pick those cherries for me Cuz they tasted just like a dream to me You must have had a lot on your mind From the way your hand slipped in mineSpending your recovery time with me Green all around you on the back porch swing Reaching for a lemon on the lemon treeTraffic on Cahuenga sounding like the seaLike the way I’m feeling when you look at me Cherries in the summertime Lovedrunk on your cherry wine We’re not trying to make the stars align Ask me now I’d say I’m fineI scratch your back, you got mineWe’re just trying to make it out aliveAlmost went to heaven baby When you held me like a baby Carried me around like a daisy Freckles on your face like stardust Lighting up the place with your loveHands around my waist it’s so good it's so goodThe quarter moon was showing off a perfect lineAnd we’re talking about existence getting high on lifeI’m not getting tired could do this all night I could do this all night all night (be my cherry baby you could be my cherry baby yeah)Cherries in the summertime Lovedrunk on your cherry wine We’re not trying to make the stars align Ask me now I’d say I’m fineI scratch your back, you got mineWe’re just trying to make it out alive#summertime #love
Why Mona - Forest Green why mona 2023-05-26 | “forest green” is a very personal song to me. Kinda feels like a journal entry in the verses and a poem in the choruses. I wrote this song in a moment of true loneliness at the beginning of the year. I’m so thankful for the gift of music to help me process and release the many human things we all go through. Being human is weird sometimes, but I guarantee you that you’re not alone, and that you are loved. 🧚🏽❤️🌲So many more releases coming your way this year, and I promise this is the only sad one 😂LyricsIt's only fiveHow is it night again? Three glasses of wine I have a good cry Only miss you cuz there’s no one elseSay I prefer to be by myself But I do want to be lovedGod it’s so hard not to be loved And oh everything’s fine Some people get lonely What's one more night wishing on empty skies When all I see is forest green and Your footprints before me In my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for me I’ve heard it saidThat loneliness is not a lack of affection, it's a lack of direction There they go looking for fun Starting wars they’re falling one by one When they just want to be loved Everyone just wants to be loved And oh everything’s fine Just ignore my body I know this time the problem is in my mind But all I see is forest green and your footprints before meIn my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for meLight rain on the pavement Sit in the silence Tend to the garden and wait You whisper to me And I run to You and You’re waiting there with open arms And all I see is forest green and Your footprints before me In my winter’s dream You call my name and come back for me
