slightly cursed(Arnold Melleby, 05.18.2019)

you turn your head
over your shoulder
when you cross the street
is there a shadow behind you
as your look in the mirror
before you hit the sack
to start dreaming

are there things
you all of a sudden
do not understand
are there things
around and near you
that aren`t that safe and familiar
any more

is there
a nightmare
in the making

the case may be
yes, you may be
slightly cursed

if you ever
wanted to be the best
you`d moved out west
a long time ago
don`t you see
the difference
it could have made

if there ever was
a nightmare
it`s in the making
for tonight

the case may be
the case is
you are
slightly cursed

follow the rainbow
it`ll get you there
from anywhere
run through the forest
and you`ll sure get lost
no matter the cost
of the journey

you are
I`m afraid to say
slightly cursed
and what may be worse
you may the one to blame
this time
it`ll hang around
untill your shoulders
shake it away

the case may be
yes, you may be
slightly cursed

you are
slightly cursed

the perfect crime(Arnold Melleby, 05.11.2019)

makin` a million dollars
outta a dime
the perfect crime

you`ve seen me once
but you might never see me twice
moving faster than your shadow
I`ll be outta sight before you blink

blue is the color
of the white land
you try to reach
blue is the moon
shining on your destination
that you`ll never reach

hit me once
hit me twice
and I`ll answer to the name of Dove
but instead of opening doors for you
it`ll close them and keep the wide open
for me
don`t ever hit me again

makin` a million dollars
instead of a dime at the time
is the only thing
you ever taught me

the perfect crime
might have been commited

the perfect crime
is you

dead again(Arnold Melleby, 05.04.2019)

here we go
and I go
not again
where does this story end
it`s hard 
when you do not know
where it started

the turf
and solid ground
differ
as you try
to establish yourself

dead again
lost again
arms tied
again

shoot me
if you want to
kill me
if you love me
save me
if you hate me

dead again
lost again
arms tied
all over again
dead again

easy
big pleaser
keep on bloggin`
your rear
will take your fall
anyway

here we go
and I go
not again
where does this story end
it`s hard 
when you do not know
where it started

the turf
and solid ground
differ
as you try
to establish yourself

easy
big pleaser
keep on bloggin`
your rear
will take your fall
anyway
shoot me
if you want to
kill me
if you love me
save me
if you hate me

dead again
lost again
arms tied
all over again
dead again
I never knew 
I had an unknown friend
in the evil
you left behind

dead again
lost again
arms tied
all over again
dead again
I never knew 
I had an unknown friend
in the evil
you left behind
here we go
oh, no
not again
