a wry world(Arnold Melleby, 01.21.2018)


I don`t know who said it first
but I know I won`t be the last
if there`s one thing
there`s no doubt about that

we ran ashore
you jumped overboard
pushed the boat out again
and ran away
who needs friends
when I have enemies
like you

you have a face
but it expresses nothing
to me
all I see is a hollow soul
an empty space
that you call your life

a wry world
is capturing my hallucination
these days
a wry world
meets my eyes
every time I close them
a wry world
is what I find myself living in
whenever I feel short of breath

to die loathed
is better than dying alone
someone once said
I tend to disagree
but we`ll see
who the hell
gets the last laugh
on this

a wry world
is capturing my hallucination
these days
a wry world
meets my eyes
every time I close them
a wry world
is what I find myself living in
whenever I feel short of breath

a wry world
where are you?
