saddle up your Dart, and get the hell outta Dodge(Arnold Melleby, 05.24.2016)

quiet
the genius is thinking
makin` a whole lotta noise
drinking

let´s all drink to life well spent
let´s all drink
to the author
of the writing on the wall

there´s a hurricane in the makin´
there are reasons to get the hell outta Dodge
a deep and darkened tunnel vision
won´t rescue and save whatever`s close to your heart
now, saddle up your Dart
and get the hell outta Dodge

so afraid
of gettin` caught in the eye
of the storm
so afraid to be seen

the words tumble up
as he gathers his gold and glitter
and turns the ignition key
and roams off with an empty back seat

there´s a hurricane in the makin´
there are reasons to get the hell outta Dodge
a deep and darkened tunnel vision
won´t rescue and save whatever`s close to your heart
now, saddle up your Dart
and get the hell outta Dodge

there´s a hurricane in the makin´
there are reasons to get the hell outta Dodge
a deep and darkened tunnel vision
won´t rescue and save whatever`s close to your heart
now, saddle up your Dart
and get the hell outta Dodge

robbed of a heart(Arnold Melleby, 05.24.2016)

feeling sad and lonely
I don´t know why
there´s people all around me
I´ve got everything I need
but I guess I´m missing what I want

a red eye flight
way the hell outta here
goin` lookin´ for ya
I can´t deny my soul´s drowning
in tears

where did you go
why did you leave
if I could recap what were
I´d do it all over again
only ten times stronger
to make you stay
just a second longer

in my dreams
I´m with you 24/7
but in realtime
it´s like 0/7
someone please rewind the tape

a red eye flight
way the hell outta here
goin` lookin´ for ya
I can´t deny my soul´s drowning
in tears

where did you go
why did you leave
if I could recap what were
I´d do it all over again
only ten times stronger
to make you stay
just a second longer

where did you go
why did you leave
if I could recap what were
I´d do it all over again
only ten times stronger
to make you stay
just a second longer

tail dust(Arnold Melleby, 05.23.2016)

I¨m a man who´s got it all
keep it rollin`
yeah, keep it rollin`
I´m a man who stands tall
keep it rollin`
yeah, keep it rollin`

comin` outta nowhere
goin` everywhere
doin` everything
to everyone
I think I just found myself
a dead horse

growin` up on a tremblin` floor
raised by the bells of hell
by a mother with an attitude
dad left before he came
addicted to mistrust
ever since

stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
one more time and I´ll push the pedal to the metal
and reduce you to
tail dust

played by the rules of others
for way too long
learned the tricks as I got along
getting ahead of the game
at the very right time
damn I´m good at this

I¨m a man who´s got it all
keep it rollin`
yeah, keep it rollin`
I´m a man who stands tall
keep it rollin`
yeah, keep it rollin`

comin` outta nowhere
goin` everywhere
doin` everything
to everyone
I think I just found myself
a dead horse

stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
one more time and I´ll push the pedal to the metal
and reduce you to
tail dust

stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
stop playin´ catch and release with my heart
one more time and I´ll push the pedal to the metal
and reduce you to
tail dust

keep it rollin`

compulsive liar(Arnold Melleby, 05.22.2016)

rocks will fly
across the universe
for ages and lifetimes
before anything will change
for you

I can hear what you´re saying
you´re coming through to me
loud and clear
you will never shut your mouth
for as long as words are spoken

but I don´t believe you
hear me now
and believe me later
you keep telling me
like it´ll change anything for you

I´ve already wasted enough time
on the likes of you
just like the time
when you kindly called the waitress
and asked her for some more wine
instead she killed you with her smile
and you were no where to be found
until you looked yourself in the mirror
you looked just like her
two cats on a hot tin roof
in the least desirable part of the city of angels
there was no way you could tell the difference
until the money ran out and you parted ways
and started looking for me again

you left your parents crib
long before the milk on your lips
dried up and made you a mustache
that would glow in the dark
if you wanted it to

it all went so very well
but then the fall came
and you started to get cold
Bermuda shorts don´t keep you warm
in the winter

I can hear what you´re saying
you´re coming through to me
loud and clear
you will never shut your mouth
for as long as words are spoken

but I don´t believe you
hear me now
and believe me later
you keep telling me
like it´ll change anything for you

no, I don´t believe you
hear me now
and believe me later
you keep telling me
like it´ll change anything for you

like Moz said so very well
how soon is now?

uniting love and forever(Arnold Melleby, 05.22.2016)

a preliminary act of innocence
before you commit your crime
come out from hiding
and do your time

playing with fire
you might think
I´ve got news for you
it´s playing with you

touch me
feel me
taste what could`ve been
love me
like no one has ever loved me before
touch me
feel me
love me
like no one ever has
before

a soulcruiser
in time and mind
searching the universe
for the missing link
uniting love and forever
a soulcruiser
in time and mind

a preliminary act of innocence
before you commit your crime
come out from hiding
and do your time

playing with fire
you might think
I´ve got news for you
it´s playing with you

touch me
feel me
taste what could`ve been
love me
like no one has ever loved me before
touch me
feel me
love me
like no one ever has
before

touch me
feel me
taste what could`ve been
love me
like no one has ever loved me before
touch me
feel me
love me
like no one ever has
before

rock star(Arnold Melleby, 05.22.2016)

coked up and ready to go
your head´s all about sleep
but spinnin´ outta control

dodging every speed limit
reckless to the bone
it´s all about breakin` the law

damn, damn, damn
I wish I had one more life to live
my both ends burnin´ candle

whatever happened to the one I had close
whatever happened to you
did you get lost along the way
or were you gone before I got started
on my non stop binge

handcuffed to my soul
is where I should´ve kept ya
handcuffed to my soul
and I would have kept ya

coked up and ready to go
your head´s all about sleep
but spinnin´ outta control

dodging every speed limit
reckless to the bone
it´s all about breakin` the law

damn, damn, damn
I wish I had one more life to live
my both ends burnin´ candle

whatever happened to the one I had close
whatever happened to you
did you get lost along the way
or were you gone before I got started
on my non stop binge

handcuffed to my soul
is where I should´ve kept ya
handcuffed to my soul

life and death(Arnold Melleby, 05.14.2016)

waking up
as dead as you ever were
alive

the only sign of forever, is time(Arnold Melleby, 05.06.2016)

days pass on
like there is no tomorrow
the only sign of forever
is time

my oceans have parted
please help me, brother
help me find the justice
the justice in love

gratefulness rather than hate
is what you should hail
forgetful as the few
leaving you thoughtful
not knowing what to do
if you could only feel
what you leave behind
every time you turn your back
you´ll be able to face the faces
who best remember the echo of a shadow
that bares the likes of you

my sweetness, my sugar, my rock in life
give me the strength to carry the burden
to carry the pain left on the cross
making the crossroads in life
a little easier to turn or cross

gratefulness rather than hate
is what you should hail
forgetful as the few
leaving you thoughtful
not knowing what to do
if you could only feel
what you leave behind
every time you turn your back
you´ll be able to face the faces
who best remember the echo of a shadow
that bares the likes of you

days pass on
like there is no tomorrow
the only sign of forever
is time

heart to heart(Arnold Melleby, 05.05.2016)

there´s a time and there´s a place
for everything here on earth
a sizzling, red hot day
embraced by the cooling breeze
from the ocean so near
soon we´ll all be disciples of the night
as the angels play the sky
and the Northern lights make their way
across the horizon

from one hand to another
heart to heart
a gentle touch
a friendly smile
is all you ever need
to get to the core of me
to get to the spine of my soul

woman
bring in the food
and I´ll bring in the wine
cheers
here´s to you, us and forever
here´s to everything
that makes our blood flow through our veins
here´s to everything worth fighting for
here´s to love

woman
dance with me
through the night
smile
I want to be your stallion
running through the open fields
you created in my mind
the very moment
I ever set my eyes on you

there´s a time and there´s a place
for everything here on earth
a sizzling, red hot day
embraced by the cooling breeze
from the ocean so near
soon we´ll all be disciples of the night
as the angels play the sky
and the Northern lights make their way
across the horizon

from one hand to another
heart to heart
a gentle touch
a friendly smile
is all you ever need
to get to the core of me
to get to the spine of my soul

from one hand to another
heart to heart
a gentle touch
a friendly smile
is all you ever need
to get to the core of me
to get to the spine of my soul
