There will be...
When you grow up you'll get weighed down
Stare at the ceiling from the ground
I've never dealt with this before
And I've never felt so insecure
Cause somebody tell me what's in store
I'm sure
There will be more
There will be more
They’re sayin' that it will go away
And I should just wait another day
Cause I used to be so self-assured
Now I don't know what I'm searchin' for
But I know that when it rains it pours
I'm sure
There will be more
There will be more
There will be more
And many more and many many more
There will be more
There will be more
More
And many more and many many more
There’s gotta be, there’s gotta be
More
And many more and many many more
There will be, there will be
More
And many more and many many more
There will be more
And many more and many many more
So much more
And many more and many many more
There will be more
And many more and many many more
There has got to be more
And many more and many many more
There will be more
And many more and many many more

Originally Performed by - Dua Lipa

I've always been the one to say the first goodbye
Had to love and lose a hundred million times
Had to get it wrong to know just what I like
Now I'm fallin'
You say my name like I have never heard before
I'm indecisive but this time I know for sure
I hope I'm not the only one who feels it all
Are you fallin'?
Center of attention
You know you can get whatever you want from me
Whenever you want it, baby
It's you in my reflection
I'm afraid of all the things it could do to me
If I would've known it, baby
I would've stayed at home
'Cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"
I know that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home
'Cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"
I know that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home
'Cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
I wonder when you go, if I stay on your mind
Two can play that game, but you win me every time
Everyone before you was a waste of time
Yeah, you got me
Center of attention
You know you can get whatever you want from me
Whenever you want it, baby
It's you in my reflection
I'm afraid of all the things it could do to me
If I would've known it, baby
I would've stayed at home
'Cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"
I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home
'Cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"
I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home
'Cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
I've got to let you know
Ooh, break my heart
I need you tonight
Break my heart
I'm lonely
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
I would've stayed at home
'Cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"
I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home
'Cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love
With the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello"

2021 CARA Nomination for Best Scholastic Original Song
Original song by Isabella Sbarra Michelland
Solo - Isabella Sbarra Michelland
Vocal Percussion - Wedler Lordeus
Arrangement - Tom Anderson
Hey you
Groovin’ in your car
You really think you’ve done it
Drivin’ by potholes and tar
Its a risk you had to take
Hope you make it unscathed
See you graplin’ at the stakes
If you peer into the distance
Heaven’s gate swings wide for you
But the demons on your tail are hidin’ in your rear view
Cause you’re drivin’ to your worst mistake
You’re drivin' to your worst mistake
The road is catchin’ fire
And you’re screamin’ at the hand break
Can you feel the burnin’ engine shake
Feel it comin’ and it’s an earthquake
The road is cracking open and
There's no force that could try to make you
Make you turn around
Do you like the taste of dirt
The way it strokes you under ground oh no
Do you know who I am
I've never had conviction
And I've never really given a damn
But I'm watching from behind you
And I'm tryna run you down
And I hear the crashing gold
See how fast you drop your crown
If the devil in the flesh is tellin’ you you’re doin’ wrong
The road to hell can’t be very long
Cause you're drivin’ to your worst mistake
You’re drivin’ to your worst mistake
I’m beggin’ you but who would listen
To a little garden snake
You feel the burning engine shake
Feel it comin’ and it’s an earthquake
The road is crackin’ open
Only God could ever try to stop you
You’re goin’ the wrong way
I’ll make you a barricade
Smoke and sour diesel
Burnin' down the highway
Cause I was like you once oh
I thought it right to fall
But you’re burnin’ the reserve
And soon enough you’ll learn
That you can’t see straight at all
Cause you’re drivin’ to your worst mistake
You're drivin' to your worst mistake
The road is catchin’ fire
And you’re screamin’ at the hand break
Can you feel the burnin’ engine shake
Feel it comin’ and it’s an earthquake
The road is cracking open
And there's no force that can try to stop you
Drivin’ to your worst mistake
You’re drivin’ to to your worst mistake
Im beggin’ you but who would listen
To a little garden snake
You feel the burnin’ engine shake feel it comin’ and it’s an earthquake
The road is cracking open
And there's no force that can try to stop you

RARB.org - Track of the Year
Solo - Makayla Sawyer
Arrangement - Tom Anderson
Originally Performed by - Alec Benjamin
Written by Alec Benjamin, Dan Wilson
They say distance is relative
And relative to relatives I have
I'd say I'm relatively close
To breaking down
Because right now
I feel so alone
I've been missing the elements and
Wishing the elephant in the room
Would leave and kindly close the door
I can't ignore
Him like before
Not anymore
Oh I, miss you most at
Six feet apart when you're
Right outside my window
But can't ride inside my car
And it hurts to know just how lovely you are
And be too far away to hold but close enough to break my heart
I miss your smile
Feels like miles
Six feet apart
So far, so far but so close
Like a star, out in the cosmos
Can't touch, the beauty I see
That's how, it feels at six feet
Space and time are interwoven
Well at least that's what we're told
When I was young I was suspicious but it's true
Time sticks like glue
I feel so blue
Here missing you
So I think I'll build a time machine and go back to a time
When we didn't need to measure six feet on the ground
When I came around
That's not allowed
I can't go back now
So I, miss you most at
Six feet apart when you're
Right outside my window
But can't ride inside my car
And it hurts to know just how lovely you are
And be too far away to hold but close enough to break my heart
I miss your smile
Feels like miles
Six feet apart
So far, so far but so close
Like a star, out in the cosmos
Can't touch, the beauty I see
That's how, it all feels to me
So far, so far but so close
Like a star, out in the cosmos
Can't touch, the beauty I see
That's how, it feels at six feet

Solo - Ricky Bocanegra
Vocal Percussion - Wedler Lordeus
Arrangement - Tom Anderson
Originally Performed by - The Band CAMINO
Written by - Chase Lawrence, Jeffery Jordan
There's a distance between me and myself somehow
I don't wanna miss it but I'm too close to make it out
I can see outside but it's blurry when I'm looking in
How did I become a stranger in my skin?
I can't find myself
Got lost in the middle
Now I feel like someone else
Now I'm looking in the mirror at
Everyone I've ever known
Everything I've ever loved
And I can't find myself
Yeah it's weighing me down
I can't get away right now
I keep running but I can't hide it
I keep looking but I'm farsighted
Wearing me out
I can't get any sleep at night
I keep running but I can't hide it
I'm so close but I'm farsighted
There's a voice inside my head that I call me
Who's a collection of conversations and melodies
There's an ocean between me and myself again
I keep on searching but the circle has no end
Yeah it's weighing me down
I can't get away right now
I keep running but I can't hide it
I keep looking but I'm farsighted
Wearing me out
I can't get any sleep at night
I keep running but I can't hide it
I'm so close but I'm farsighted
I can't find myself
Got lost in the middle
Now I feel like someone else
Now I'm looking in the mirror at
Everyone I've ever loved
Everything I've ever done
But I can't find myself
Yeah it's burning me down
I can't get away right now
I keep running but I can't hide it
I keep looking but I'm farsighted
Freaking me out
I can't get any sleep at night
I keep running but I can't hide it
I'm so close but I'm farsighted

Solo - Keeley Sawyer
Vocal Percussion - Wedler Lordeus
Arrangement - Tom Anderson
Originally Performed by - Orla Gartland
Written by - Orla Gartland
I woke up to an empty bed
I took a walk to clear my head
I wished you were there instead
But then I shook it off
What the hell did I used to do
I’m even starting to speak like you
And now you’re living in my memory
Living in my mouth
Living in the four empty walls of my house
I feel like a let down to not be your friend now
I feel like a let down and now you’re gone, gone, gone
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
Your personality’s split in two
I fell in love with the half of you
And when you told me what you went through
I couldn’t brush it off
I wonder what are you doing now defeats the point of shutting you out
And now my part of London feels so haunted
You gave me a power that I never even wanted
You said I feel like a let down to not be your friend now
I feel like a let down and now you’re gone, gone, gone
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
Oh my god you’re everything I know
Let it sink in right now
Oh my god you’re everything I know
Get ready for the come down
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
I know I
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
I know I
'Cause I know I
Did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I know I know I know
Did it to myself
I can’t blame nobody else
I know I did it to myself
I know I
You said answer honestly
And I went with Option B
I lost you and you lost me
I can’t shake it off

2021 CARA Runner-up for Best High School Arrangement
Original Song by Mady Ladd
Solo - Mady Ladd
Vocal Percussion - Wedler Lordeus
Arrangement - Prabh Saini
This song was written as a gift to Mady's grandmother after her grandfather passed away last year.
I trade a thing or two
Just to know anything about you
My secrets are worth a thrill
So do with what you will
Come on don’t be shy
Muster up the courage to say goodbye
Goodbye
I don’t know when but I found myself
Weathering away with you
Take me out of this town
I wanna go anywhere
If it drags me down I've got you
Say my name, can’t bear that you’re the one I lose
When I’m gone, they’ll know I'm with you
Paint color in my sky a brighter side of life
Draw back the curtains and feast your eyes
Pennsylvania mountains what a sight
Think of me while you're gone
Take pictures of the ocean, it won’t be long, too long
I don’t know when but I found myself
Weathering away with you
Take me out of this town
I wanna go anywhere
If it drags me down I've got you
Say my name, can’t bear that you’re the one I lose
When I’m gone, they’ll know I'm with you
You remind me of rainy days at sea
Living your life so unpredictably
No don't you mind if I stop and take a seat
I want to watch it unfold.
I don’t know when but I found myself
Weathering away with you
Take me out of this town
I wanna go anywhere
If it drags me down I've got you
Say my name, can’t bear that you’re the one I lose
When I’m gone, they’ll know I'm with you
When I'm gone, they'll know I'm with you

Woke up the other day
I said that it's okay if we don't make a match
I won't stay attached
I read between the lines
But I misread all the signs
Oh, baby, what went wrong, that made you move along?
'Cause there are sides to you I never got to see
And there are sides you haven't seen from me
Baby, it's me and you
And maybe if I only knew
You would tell me what to do
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby
Me and you
And maybe if I only knew
I could change the things I do
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby, yeah
Did you find another girl?
Bigger eyes and better curls
And when she spoke to you
All the words rang true
You cast a shadow in the role I thought was mine
I'm off the book, could you just throw a line?
Baby, it's me and you
And maybe if I only knew
You could tell me what to do
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby
Me and you
And maybe if I only knew
I could change the things I do
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby
And if I'm always falling down
Would I ever turn around?
And if the days are in the round
Would I ever make it, would I ever make it?
Would I make it at all?
Me and you
And maybe if I only knew
You could tell me what to do
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby
Me and you
And maybe if I only knew
I could change the things I do
Oh, yeah (Tell me, baby)

Were just attempts at earning love? Yeah
'Cause the hole inside my heart is stupid deep, stupid deep

Time, time, time
See what's become of me...
Time, time, time
See what's become of me
While I looked around
For my possibilities
I was so hard to please
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a Hazy Shade of Winter
Hear the Salvation Army Band
Down by the riverside
It's bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned
Carry a gun in your hand
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a Hazy Shade of Winter
Hang onto your hopes my friend
That's an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
Look around
Grass is high
Fields are ripe
It's the springtime of my life
Seasons change with their scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won't you stop and remember me
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a Hazy Shade of Winter
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground

I won't talk about the weather
Not with you, we're not together
'Cause even when the sky is grey, I'm feeling blue
And though the winds are always changing
And the clouds are rearranging
A part of me will always be in love with you
There's a fire in LA
And since you moved there back in May
I wonder, should I call to see if you're alright?
Yeah, you're a million miles away
But I still think of you each day
And hope the weather doesn't keep you cold at night
So, I won't talk about the weather
No, I won't talk about the weather
I won't talk about the weather
Not with you, we're not together

A part of me will always be in love with you
So, I won't talk about the weather
No, I won't talk about the weather
I won't talk about the weather
Not with you, we're not together
And it's hard to say if we will ever be
And I'll admit my greatest fear is that
The air will never clear
So I just wish we could talk like you and me
So, I won't talk about the weather
Not with you, we're not together
