Oh, dearest!
   





Hi.
Will be playing live at Bearfest in
Vänersborg on August 20. Don't be a square now!

And just yesterday I recorded a demo of a new
song for Victor to listen to, but since it turned
out quite nice I decided to post it here aswell,
atleast for a short time.

It's called The cheapest way to go




     
 
1. Where the monsters sleep
 
2. For you my dear
 
3. Lead me down
 
4. Everyone's going home
 
5. You're older now
 
6. Tonight again
 
7. I'll always be around
 
 

Lead me down

hide

In the night
when the pink light is coming
lay your white dress by my bed
I am scared
of what I'm becoming
I can't see myself in this haze

But I keep it to myself
Lead me down
Wolfs surround my bed
I wont tell her what you said
if you lead me down

In your car
waiting for the morning
Keeping count of people passing by
Counting lives
Counting disappearing tail lights
Just to take us through the night

And I keep it to myself
Lead me down
Wolfs surround my bed
I wont tell her what you said
if you lead me down


Where the monsters sleep

hide

I'm an observer looking down
They're shadows on the ground
The sun is in their eyes
they will never see me

Few will understand
Fragile is my share
I travel in my own state of mind
it's where I am

It's time to let you go
down to where these monsters sleep
Time to let it pass
and put my mind at ease
Time to let you in
on this one secret that I keep
I've been lying to you for weeks

In pieces I shall live
until he takes me in
I believe in nothing
nothing is his will

I can do without true love
just like our fathers did
I can be whoever I want to be
I can make up memories
of things I never did
That is good enough for me


Tonight again

hide

Your eyes are always in my sight
Quite a scene I made!
You leave your stains on what is mine
It's marking us
I can't get them off

What winter's hiding's coming back
and under feets of snow
Is what I left there month ago
I thought I kicked it
But I didn't kick it
Just gave it time to grow

Tonight tonight tonight again
it seems we're back where it began
What we couldn't handle then
I guess we're biting off our hands
Tonight tonight tonight again

Keeping track of what is right
is such a cliché line
When every instinct is one the side
where they shouldn't be
Lord, it's killing me

Some friend I am huh!
There's no going back now
Some friend I am.


Spending time alone

hide

Yesterdays paper's on the table
Fifteen strangers at my front door
I've got no one else to care for this time

Making breakfast for you still, love
It's waiting for you when you get home
If you're coming home this time

Spending friday night alone
I just got up to watch her go

Yesterdays paper's on the table
There's really nothing I could ask for
You've got every right to break me down this time

Spending friday night alone
I just got up to watch her go


I'll always be around

hide

I know you have an urge to be
on the other side of living
and your ways I have forgiven
Just couldn't stand to set you free

You know it's hurting me
You're always talking about tomorrow
and by the time that you're back home with me
you're one step out the door

And it's hard
but we're in this together
and there's no easy living
There's just living and there ain't
But your part
will always be a lead one
and for as long as you're gonna need one
I will always be around

I guess we've had a good run
I've seen you getting older
Now the winds are blowing colder
and once again you're on your way

I guess I'm stuck here
But it's not because I'm happy
And it's not that I belong here
I'm just too scared to change my ways
