Doom Over Dead Man

June 19, 2014 Leave a comment

The autumn clouds are caving in
And night comes crawling, black as sin
Lightning strikes, and rain begins
A storm that tears my soul

I toss and tumble in my bed
My thoughts are spinning in my head
Darkness nears, soon I’ll be dead
I’m losing all control

I’ve spent my life in foolish quests
for gold and riches, I confess
And now I’m left with just regrets
Too late to change my ways

My life, it seems, has slipped away
I leave no legacy to praise
Nothing more for me to say
My life has been a waste

When!
My time has come for me to leave
When!
When judgment’s passed upon my life
When!
A cold dark grave will wait for me
Will!
Will my name live endlessly?
When!
My time has come for me to leave
When!
When judgment’s passed upon my life
When!
A cold dark grave will wait for me
Will!
Will my name live endlessly?

So I die
But won’t be mourned
Broken and alone
I wish that I were never born

So I die and won’t be missed
No rune stone will be raised
As my body rots away

Die!
All friends and cattle pass away
Die!
And death will come for every man
Die!
But I know one thing never dies
Doom!
The sentence passed upon the dead
Now!
The time has come for me to leave
Now!
When judgement’s passed up on my life
Now!
Now I will rest in my dark grave
Will!
They speak my name with reverence?

My life has been a waste
No rune stone will be raised
So I die, but won’t be mourned
I wish that I were never born
I rest here in my shallow grave
As my body rots away

He said, she said, together they said

February 15, 2014 Leave a comment

He said

Why I should feel this way
Why I should feel this way
Why I should feel the same

There’s something I cannot say
Something I cannot say
Something I can’t explain

I feel you, outside
At the edge of my life

I see you, walk by
At the edge of my sight

She said

Why I should follow my heart
Why I should follow my heart
Why I should fall apart

Why I should follow my dreams
Why I should follow my dreams
Why I should be at peace

I feel you, outside
At the edge of my life

I see you, walk by
At the edge of my sight

They said

I had to let you go
To the setting sun

I had to let you go
And find a way back home

I had to let you go
To the setting sun

I had to let you go
And find a way back home

When I dream all I see is you
When I dream all I see is..

I never seen a light that’s so bright

I never seen a light that’s so bright

I never seen a light that’s so bright

Blinded by the light that’s inside
Blinded by the light that’s inside
Blinded by the light that’s inside you

She said

I had to let you go
To the setting sun

I had to let you go
And find a way back home

Abandoned

February 12, 2014 Leave a comment

A song that reveals hidden scars, unnamed feelings and unknown answers. Played randomly as I woke up. I’m wondering what today will carry for me.

Once my life was plain and clear
I recall
Once my ignorance was bliss
Nightfall came
like a serpent’s kiss
to my troubled mind

 

Why, oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety?
Behind the old facade
I’m your bewildered child
So take me ‘cross the river wide

 

Binding promises were made
On my soul
Grand illusions led astray
Ice cold winds
swept my heart away
Bring me back to you

 

Why, oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety?
Behind the old facade
I’m your bewildered child
So take me ‘cross the river wide

I remember a song
Like in a dream
Where September was long
And winter unreal

 

Why, oh why my God above
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety?
Behind the old facade
I’m your bewildered child
So take me ‘cross the river wide

Video Games Cover

February 11, 2014 2 comments

Last night I worked for sixteen hours. Even though I was physically tired and needed to sleep, I had the strength to plug my acoustic guitar and get this cover perfected. A cover that is beating an original. I do not know why this cover, I don’t know why I am shifting the music genre, I don’t know why I held the acoustic and not the electric guitar, I have no answer to what is happening. I have absolutely no clue.

The conclusion is that I got this out with the modified lyrics and the enhanced acoustic melody.

I’m going to the studio tonight after work. I’m not going back home. I will get this one done right.

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name

Open up a beer
And you say, “Get over here
And play a video game.”

I’m in my favorite sun dress
Watching you get undressed
Take that body downtown

You say, “I’m the bestest.”
Lean in for a big kiss
Put your favorite perfume on

Playing a video games

It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
Never really like the bad girls
Honey, only you
It’s better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby, now I do
Baby, now I do

Singing in the old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame

Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games

I holds you in his long arms
Drunk and you are seeing stars
This is all you think of

Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul’s
This is your idea of fun
Playing video games

It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
Never really like the bad girls
Honey, only you
It’s better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby, now I do
Baby, now I do

Broken Smile

February 9, 2014 Leave a comment

I’m not sure if it’s gonna work
Maybe I need some time alone
All the little things she said
All the little pills I take

Maybe it’s just a little dream for me
Some kind of little fantasy
Maybe it’s your little game
That I’m not prepared to play

Did you see those little lights?
They got dimmed by the autumn winds
Did you feel some glimmer of hope
It got killed by the winter breeze

Did you see that broken smile?
And how it still keeps on smiling
Did you see that broken man?
And how quiet he was dying

Maybe your life is supposed to be this way
Painted in some kind of deeper Grey
Or maybe it’s just me
It’s the way I choose to see

War

February 9, 2014 Leave a comment

Do you remember standing on a broken field
White crippled wings beating the sky
The harbingers of war with their nature revealed
And our chances flowing by

If I can let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field

When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try

Turn the page I need to see something new
For now my innocence is torn
We cannot linger on this stunted view
Like rabid dogs of war

I will let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field

When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
And we fought to believe the impossible 
When I thought that I fought this war alone
We were one with our destinies entwined
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me the reason why

With no-one wearing their real face
It’s a whiteout of emotion
And I’ve only got my brittle bones to break the fall

When the love in letters fade
It’s like moving in slow motion
And we’re already too late if we arrive at all

And then we’re caught up in the arms race
An involuntary addiction
And we’re shedding every value our mothers taught

So will you please show me your real face
Draw the line in the horizon
Cos I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought

When I thought that I fought this war alone…

Don’t Fall Asleep

February 9, 2014 Leave a comment

Don’t fall asleep
To the weeping of the birds
Don’t fall asleep
In this room of the fallen

Don’t fall asleep
To the breathing of the walls
Don’t fall asleep
In this room of loss
Don’t fall asleep
In the arms of dead air
Don’t fall asleep
In this symphony of the damned

“Time stands still in this chamber of pain
The clock stops and the horror comes
The children cry and weep
In this room of the unforgiven
Lie down because you’ll never leave
Lie down, but don’t fall asleep”

The signs show slowly with the dark
They glow brighter as the shadows grow deeper

Blood marks on the walls and the ceiling and on the floor and the doors, oh how they flow!

Little voices like the whining of the birds

As the closet door opens

I still can hear them screaming
And the shape… Is it me on the piano?

Playing the symphony of the damned

Cathedral Walls

February 9, 2014 Leave a comment

Where do we go from here?
When these words have been unspoken.
We carry this burden through the gentle summer rain.
The convoy is still, still and weeping,
yet I don’t feel anything, but these walls around.

“And the candles on the cathedral walls
chase the weak light under the saints eyes,
over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost.
In your mourning you’re alone, so alone.”

This silence speaks a million words,
words of comfort so shallow.
How I wish even for one tear,
but for my heart it is too late.
Where do I go when the sorrow turns to hate.
Where do I go from here?

The guardian angels quiet and near,
slowly turning away, for hell is surely here.
Every step towards the hole in the ground I rot,
carrying your white coffin, my heart wide shut.

I will follow you, earth to earth.
I will follow you, ashes to ashes.
I will follow you, dust to dust.
I will follow you!

How I wish even for one tear,
but for my heart it is too late,
when sorrow turns to hate.

“And the candles on the cathedral walls
chase the weak light under the Saints eyes
over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost.
In your mourning you’re alone, so alone.”

Carnival of Rust

February 8, 2014 Leave a comment

Do you breath the name of your savior in your hour of need
And taste the blame if the flavor should remind you of greed?
Of implication, insinuation and ill will, till you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil come closing in for a kill

Come, feed the rain
‘Cos I’m thirsty for your love, dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
‘Cos without your love my life ain’t nothing, but this carnival of rust

It’s all a game, avoiding failure when true colors will bleed
All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don’t need
I lust for after no disaster can touch, touch us anymore and more than ever
I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before

Come, feed the rain
‘Cos I’m thirsty for your love, dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
‘Cos without your love my life ain’t nothing, but this carnival of rust

Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Oh, when the world is burning
Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Oh, when the heart is yearning

Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Oh, when the world is burning
Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Oh, when the heart is yearning

This cut is the deepest

February 7, 2014 Leave a comment

You are nothing but a shadow
of the beauty what you used to be,
blank painting with silver frames.
You know when things turned all so wrong?

Afraid to tell the truth, locked inside yourself.
I promise this won’t hurt you,
at least as much as all these lies.

You are nothing but a shadow
of the beauty what you used to be,
deceitful and shallow; yes,
you know when things turned so wrong.

Dim line between two broken hearts,
long road to perdition.
One will stand, one will fall.

See the stars, touch your scars,
face the dark eye to eye.
Touch the stars, feel the warmth,
my love, this cut is the deepest.

Dim line between two broken hearts,
long road to perdition.
One will stand, one will fall…

You are nothing but a shadow
of the beauty what you used to be,
deceitful and shallow; yes,
you know when things turned so wrong.

See the stars, touch your scars,
face the dark eye to eye.
Touch the stars, feel the warmth,
my love, this cut is the deepest.
