all over again(Arnold Melleby, 10.31.2016)

I´ve got it in me
still the outside
don´t have a clue
how I manage
to let it out
and control it
whenever
it suits my fancy
the show must go on
as it always does

I´m the same
as I´ve always been
I´m the same
as I´ve always been seen
hold on to your hats
the beast is out
once again
to charm you
once again
to harm you
there´s no end to this scene
it just goes on and on and on
the characters change
while I remain
the same
the audience cheers on
while I´m in pain
tomorrow
we´ll do it all over
again
a different audience
but the pain is the same
the same
the same
the same
all over again

as the night settles in
and I get off stage
there´s a trail of souls
looking in
places in me
they should´ve never seen
how can it be
that I´m the only lonely out there
after a night like this
I care to ask
but at the same time
I know I´ll never get an answer
from anyone I trust
once again
my expectations
turn to dust

while every one else is asleep
I tend to let the thoughts run away
while every one else is asleep
I´m awake
surfing on a wave
draped in the ultimate passion
draped in the dreams never lived
as of yet

I´m the same
as I´ve always been
I´m the same
as I´ve always been seen
hold on to your hats
the beast is out
once again
to charm you
once again
to harm you
there´s no end to this scene
it just goes on and on and on
the characters change
while I remain
the same
the audience cheers on
while I´m in pain
tomorrow
we´ll do it all over
again
a different audience
but the pain is the same
the same
the same
the same
all over again
