the silver lining

the silver lining(A.Melleby, 02.28.15)

another endless walk on the beach
not far from where I was born
another endless conversation
as usual leading off the shore
far from where my thoughts would ever fly

where´s the silver lining
where`s the silver lining
this is more than I can take

dreaming on
dreaming on
leaving nothing at bay
singing on
singing on
on a song without an end

where´s the silver lining
where`s the silver lining
this is more than I can take
where´s the silver lining
where`s the silver lining
this is more than I can take

dreaming on
dreaming on
leaving nothing at bay
singing on
singing on
on a song without an end

where´s the silver lining
where`s the silver lining
this is more than I can take
where´s the silver lining
where`s the silver lining

this is more than I can take

the holy hours


the holy hours(A.Melleby)

is this what it’s like to be free
is this the way
Darwin laughed at all of us
in the mirror of the dawn of forever

a lonely child
singing through the forrest mist
lifetimes ago

as the bright lights are calling
between the sun and the moon
I find the mirror of myself
you don’t need to be a prophet
to read what I wrote

the warrior of my time
the saint within
comes to life
every now and in between

the battles
the dreams
still roam my mind

do you
do you still believe in me
then search for me
and find yourself

I love life
I love you
I love the dream
I saw you in

the holy hours
the hours between the sun and moon
shining over you
the holy hours
shining over you
the holy hours
crying over you
the holy hours
I’m crying over you

the holy hours
waving goodbye to you

the holy hours

in my dreams you are still mine

in my dreams you are still mine(A.Melleby, 01.11.07)

the silent terror
of broken wings
trying to fly
now rules the passion
that once took us
miles above the ground

love
bleeding my heart dry

the painting on the wall
bare the likeness of a past
I’d like to relive again
change the colors
change the hand of the brush
and another life will come to life

love
bleeding my heart dry
love
bleeding my heart dry

look at your cards
they don’t lie
in my dreams
you are still mine

love
still bleeding
love
still bleeding my heart dry

in my dreams

you are still mine

there`s no beginning to an end

there’s no beginning to an end(A.Melleby, 01.11.07)

look at the page you just turned
look at the door you just shut
behind you
look at the eyes
you once could not escape

you can’t leave them
and come back for them another day
mind you, baby

I’ll be gone
gone forever
wait and see
how lonely life can be
without me

tie me down
I’ll still be gone
nail me to a wall
I’ll still be gone
there’s no beginning
in an end

have the founders of this universe
break the spell
only time will tell
if they’ll let you relive this

I’ll be gone
gone forever
just wait and see
how lonely life can be
without me

tie me down
I’ll still be gone
nail me to a wall
I’ll still be gone

there’s no beginning to an end
there’s no beginning to an end

there’s no beginning to an end

we have lost our way


we have lost our way(A.Melleby)

understanding the creation of it all
understanding natures ways
will help us getting there
from anywhere
as long as we understand
as long as we follow the rules
written in the sky

hey, hey, hey
why are we in need of revolutions
when it´s all here
right in front of us
to give the human race a break
hey, hey, hey
we have lost our way
hey, hey, hey
we have lost our way

markets interacting
markets saying hi
to rivers colored
to rivers running dead
h2o is not what it used to be
and we all know why
we all know why

love comes and goes
I know
we created it all
at the doorstep of a universe
not too keen on giving planets real life
in between dark holes, dust and icy rocks
nothing is ever given

hey, hey, hey
no one is getting away
this is the new order
this is the new control
let´s give the human race a break
hey, hey, hey
let´s race no more
hey, hey, hey
and get down to the real core

traumatized by reality
it´s time to let our dreams dreamt in darkness

hit the light
