Quiet, Empty Rooms

from Demolition Derby by Maddi Mae

/

about

I wrote this one when depression and anxiety decided that I should cancel all of my plans and stay home instead.

lyrics

I can’t come over
I told ya
I have too much to do

I can’t go out
I’ve gotta stay in my house
Quiet, empty rooms

About this weekend, I know you want
To have some fun
But I can’t go anywhere

About tonight, I know we planned it
To be romantic
But I can’t even go there

You should still go out for the both of us
Or go out for just you
Really, baby, I’m okay
Whatever you want to do
It’s on you
Cause I’m not going anywhere

Just one second, I know depression
Seems like oppression
When I can’t do anything

But plot twist, I try to use it
To make my music
I can’t speak, but I can sing

I can take this shit and make it into
Bops and bangers, baby
When I’m feeling better
We can dance around to this like crazy
It’s on me
I gotta get me through this

It’s lonely…
I don’t want to be lonely…
But I don’t want to be…
Around anybody else right now…

Maddi Mae Remington, Virginia

hi, this is a museum of a lot of the music i've made - the good and the bad.

my new song "die today" is totally different from the collection of songs i released in 2020. it's born out of just making music that felt good to me after hours at my music school/studio (sound house).

if you like the song, tell me about it please.
