A song

Never has an old song been more fitting than this one on this day I think.




I’ve been searching everywhere for you
Been looking everywhere
And here you are right in front of my eyes
And still I cannot reach out for you

I’ve been walking all alone for years
To spy upon your home
But now you are standing in front of me
What did I think I would see?

Touch me!
Don’t walk away
Don’t leave me!
The night is cold
And all I can see right now
Are dark streets
With no control

I’ve been calling out your name too long
Been calling out the same
And now I can see right through your mind
What did I think I would find?

Touch me!
Don’t walk away
Don’t leave me!
The night is cold
And all I can see right now
Are dark streets
With no control

Now I won’t see you
I want to be you!
Seemingly great all on your own…

Touch me!
Don’t walk away
Don’t leave me!
The night is cold
And all I can see right now
Are dark streets
With no control

Coffee and Unemployment

Hi all,
This one is from when it was no longer fun to be unemployed - typ winter (february-ish) in 2009. It goes a little smthg like this:


Waiting for the day to come
Waiting for the special one
Who will take her far away
Waiting for the special day
Never ending coffee break
Staring at the street all day
Watching life go by
While it’s hard to tell the weeks apart

It seems she don’t try
She don’t try
She don’t try
Disappointment’s the only thing
Surely left by
By her side
By her side
She could never have known
How fast meaninglessness
Becomes the world’s strongest force

Waiting for the week to end
For a phone call from a friend
For a post card in the mail
For a sign of spring – a snail!
Ever lasting coffee break
Nothing’s really happening
Yesterday was just the same
Evenings wait for mornings
And then

When the night comes
She sings a song to make her sleep
Quite pathetic
Trying to feed her dreams with this:

“Please don’t die yet
Someday your life will be of worth
To somebody
Somewhere
Now sleep and dream of

Someone who will own a horse
Someone with a castle
Where there will be one million doors
That will lead to rooms filled with
Books from floor to ceiling
(I’m sure you know the feeling)
One endless source of happiness
Endless source to dreams about
Someone who will own a horse
Someone with a castle
Where there will be one million doors
That will lead to rooms filled with
Books from floor to ceiling
(I’m sure you know the feeling)
One endless source of happiness
Endless source to dreams about
Someone who will own a horse
Someone with a castle
Where there will be one million doors”
None will lead to this
She is sure

The Words Disappear

Mmmkay, I did actually record a "new" (i.e. old) guitar solo on this one sometime this fall.
Still sounds like...well, me.
The soda account over at twitter has been turned into something to channel whining in norwegian through. I will try to not do the same to this blog - it will be better to leave it to die I think. Although I've got enough whining to go around for both of them.
2012 has been fucked up. 2013 will not have to include many positive elements to be a better year. However I thought nothing could be worse than 2011, so...anywaaay...Hope you all ("all"?) are ok, or ok-ish. I love you. You know I do.

PS. The chickens are dead now.
