Charles Manson killed me tonight(Arnold Melleby, 12.13.2018)

a devoid of matter
a lack of solitude

a barb wire
hiding the holocaust
and dustfall of angels
that cloud your mind

I saw an image in a mirror
across the room
full of desire
but begging
to be left alone

a fool seldom travels alone
a fool seldom travels at all
better hang out
and gather what it takes
to make it on through

any way
any whore
Charles Manson killed me tonight

a devoid of matter

a lack of solitude

a barb wire

hiding the holocaust

and dustfall of angels

that cloud your mind

come, gather what`s around

and show us all 

what you have found

and most of all

let it all hang out

your ship ran aground

and you were nowhere to be found

somehow your ghost 

dragged you up on the Beach

on safe ground 

the big cats of the night

dragged you to my doorstep

proud and victorious of their prey

hawling to a yawning full moon

that has seen it all before

I heard the knocks

and opened my door

and saw an image in a mirror

across the room

full of desire

but begging 

to be left alone

leading me to a conclusion 

away from the delusion 

into the haluzination

and prozac nation

that see and meet my needs

any way

any whore

Charles Manson killed me tonight

any way

any whore

Charles Manson killed me tonight

if I was you(Arnold Melleby, 12.13.2018)

if I was you
I`d rather be me

dangerous times(Arnold Melleby, 12.08.2018)

a ray of light
a drop of water
is how it all begun
how simple and ingenious
could life begin
and go on
until we came along

time flies
as they say
in reality
our lifetime on this earth
won`t even account for
a dinosaur`s passing of air

these are dangerous times
these are troubling times
these are unforgiving times
for our beautiful earth
these are dangerous times
for our evil mankind

so we have cars
so we have houses
so we have plastic
so we have it all
but we don`t have each other
and that`s where the problem starts
our mother nature
is ashamed

leaves fall
every fall
and they fall for us
the ones who never notice
them at all
our destiny
is the call

these are dangerous times
these are troubling times
these are unforgiving times
for our beautiful earth
these are dangerous times
for our evil mankind

these are dangerous times
these are troubling times
these are unforgiving times
for our beautiful earth
these are dangerous times
for our evil mankind

the fire and the eagles(Arnold Melleby, 12.06.2018)

let`s begin
with your skin
and the deep
within

even in silence
I can hear you
loud and clear
have no fear

eagles
flying in sircles
in the hot air
above your body
lying in the sand
of the desert
the eagles
are there
to protect you

in harms way
but still
out of reach

the smoke from the fire
sends a shiver
through your bones

gazing over the rooftop
gasping for air
the fire`s roaming in

eagles
flying in sircles
in the hot air
above your body
lying in the sand
of the desert
the eagles
are there
to protect you

as the morning clears the sky
you wake up
slightly roasted

but, still alive
slightly roasted
but, still alive

where do you go
from here
you got your feathers burned

your house is gone
and you wanna fly outta here
but can`t

eagles
flying in sircles
in the hot air
above your body
lying in the sand
of the desert
the eagles
are there
to protect you

eagles
flying in sircles
in the hot air
above your body
lying in the sand
of the desert
the eagles
are there
to protect you

eyes on the horizon(Arnold Melleby, 12.06.2018)

everyone`s got a story
a story not always
easy to tell

the void in yours
your shortness of words
and for you I fell

I saw beyond the barriers
of your silence
and took back your tears
turning them into
the most beautiful
waterfall

back on track
and planning on staying there
now, you know why I`m here
a soulattack
of the warmest, kindest kind
honey, you are now free

you will always stand tall
all the shorties out there
will never reach your sky
even if they come together
and stack themselves up high

the horizon will from now on
always be your friend
and nothing you should ever
be afraid of
make eyecontact
and keep it
let it guide you on through
the horizon represents
no limit for you

after all
it worked out well
I thought it was going to be hell
but I came on through from the other side
and saw you
from the very same horizon
you are looking at
right now

unscathed(Arnold Melleby, 12.06.2018)

the sun got caught
in between now or never
shone all day
but forgot to send me light

in darkness I was born
in darkness I shall die
leave the flowers to drown
too much love
killed them off in the end

and when the window shuts
once and for all
you will be victorious
once again

the creatures come crawling
the creatures come longing
the creatures come in cascades
plural and plenty
for the flesh that is exposed to them
I`m lying there
on a silver tray
in an all you can eat
no doggy bag
feeding frenzy

the widows
crying their hearts out
as the morning
brings the mourners
out in the streets
to let it all out
to let it all go

the creatures come crawling
the creatures come longing
the creatures come in cascades
plural and plenty
for the flesh that is exposed to them
I`m lying there
on a silver tray
in an all you can eat
no doggy bag
feeding frenzy

the creatures come crawling
the creatures come longing
the creatures come in cascades
plural and plenty
for the flesh that is exposed to them
I`m lying there
on a silver tray
in an all you can eat
no doggy bag
feeding frenzy

my soul
shall rise again
unscathed

unscathed

dark dwarf(Arnold Melleby, 12.05.2018)

crying
as you enter this world
crying
as you leave it

second to the wolf
the eagle is clearing the air
to land again

unaware of what hides
in the tall grass
making itself small

eat or be eaten
follow that rule
and you won`t be beaten

it`s not an advice
it`s the rule
called nature

realease the dark dwarf
and make us all
human again
dark dwarf

shed the wounds
that bled you dry
expose yourself

I`m surprised¨
you got here
so soon

nothing matters
if you don`t
make it happen

realease the dark dwarf
and make us all
human again
dark dwarf

realease the dark dwarf
and make us all
human again
dark dwarf

crying
as you enter this world
and crying
as you leave it

dark dwarf

breathe for you(Arnold Melleby, 12.05.2018)

all my words
leave all of you
wondering
who am I
after all

my veins
my blood
cherished by my heart
around it goes
until it doesn`t
no more

breathe
until you do not
you have no choice
really
or do you

you toured the world
then the world toured you
to fight you

in the middle
there I was
what was I to do and believe

sitting at a table
round and divine
that now has turned

for all the well wishers
your wishes will all
be declined

breathe
until you do not
or as long as there`s oxygene

that is the question
that rarely is asked
and answered anonymously

If was there
I`d be there for you
If I was there
I`d breathe for you

breathe for you

breathe for you
breathe for you
breathe for you

breathe for you

I am the alien(Arnold Melleby, 12.05.2018)

feeling tired in the silence
surrounding the aura
called my life

rumours has it
and I do not
have a fucking clue

where to look
where to go
when the shit hits the fan
and I am found
naked and cold
beneath it

I am the alien
I am the reason why
why they all say goodbye
I am the alien

a sobering fact
before getting drunk
at the dried up waterhole

a villain that came in
from the cold with a destiny
that was nowhere to be seen

rumours has it
and I do not
have a fucking clue

where to look
where to go
when the shit hits the fan
and I am found
naked and cold
beneath it

I am the alien
I am the reason why
why they all say goodbye
I am the alien

I am the alien
I am the reason why
why they all say goodbye
I am the alien

I am the alien
I am the reason why
why they all say goodbye
I am the alien

I am the alien

destruction(Arnold Melleby, 12.03.2018)

starting off
with a flower
growing from a seed
seeing the sky
for the first time
spending the rest of it`s days
trying to reach it
and at the same time
trying to stay beautiful
and appealing
on her path
on her way
to the unreachable sky

love
for heavens sake
you`ll believe me if you`re wrong
there`s no question about that
make those fools wrong
winning at their own game
love
for heavens sake

destruction
at the wrath
of evil
destorting
each and every path
destruction
is in the way
of getting
to where you want to be
with me
