New Boy In Class

School work gets done in a hurry
Front row desk boy - I'm watching you
Your jeans are the same as they were yesterday
We're all wanting you
The new boy in class
I've been wanting you
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
On the second day of class
I become
obsessed with your smell
Can you talk?
Say something to me
Say you can smell me in the dark
As the teacher turns off the light
why do our forearms touch?
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
And I wish you would believe me
and let me take you home
Keep you under the bed
and never be alone
On my lap I pet you
On my lap I pet you
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
Glass eyes blue collectible marble
On the third day of class
you start to ignore me
you're looking at another boy
I wish I didn't see
I never get the things I want
My life is like a prison

Lost In Thought

I get lost in thought
when you were gone
my mind split open
and I went for a walk
Everything started to change
my feet sank into the dirt
and I couldn't remember my name
I was alone
but now I realize I've always been
but where'd you go?
What will happen when I
experience the same fate as you?
I get so scared that I
cannot move
But the daytime fades and people go to sleep
the flower blooms
slowly
I was alone
but now I realize I've always been
but where'd you go?
They found you by the water
and what was there had gone
and now we all pay homage to a body dressed in flowers
but where'd you go?
Everything started to change
my feet sank into the dirt
and I couldn't remember my name

Braulio Cruz New York, New York
Sensitive, driving synth-pop with 80s influences by Brazilian musician living in Queens.
Braulio Cruz recommends:
This has to be one of my favorite records ever. I saw Ladytron on tour for the first time during this era and it’s how I discovered synths.
