02. The Metamorphosis Melody

I know the road's full of stones
Life's not a bed of roses
OUr prayers often stay unheard
But don't let it in and hurt
even if troubles lure
You know you don't deserve to give in

I sensed the wind whispering
You have to move on
Rejoice the moment's silent worth
and have a new birth

There is always a way
Where the rainclouds haven't left their fall
Do use in digging a hole
Just focus on the goal
There is always someone
That hasn't found their soulmate yet
Do point in keeping your heart numb
Do doubt one day your turn will come

I know it's never too late
to change old struggling patterns
Your will is stronger than anyone's faith
So don't let them get you down
It's in you
You just haven't found
Listen to your inner voice
And arise from the ground

I heard the owl's howling
Just fly from the earth
Rejoice the moment's silent worth
And have a new birth

There is always a way
Where the rainclouds
haven't left their fall
Do use in digging a hole
There is always someone
That hasn't found their soulmate yet
Do point in keeping your heart numb
Do doubt one day your turn will come

03. Spellbound

Tunes of an enchanting song
captured my attention at once
Stumbled in the waving grass
in the greenwoods
I was spellbound

So why no follow
Got nothing to risk
Got nothing to lose
Just go
with no expectations and no force
no negative thoughts
Follow the voice

Let's meet at the twilight
Let's run through the leaves
till our hands bind again
Let's dance
until sunrise
In the infatuated night
I'm bound by the wild

I'll climb up the fabled peak
onto the view surrounds me
Sing out the melody
of seduction that special night

Never erase
the tunes
our sensual moments
never forget
the moves
Allure is everywhere
Magic's in the air

Let's meet at the twilight
I'm led astray by the charm
By your enthralling song
I'm spellbound
So why not follow
It's once in lifetime
And now just treasure the night
until sunrise

Never erase
the tunes
our sensual moments
never forget
the moves
Allure is everywhere
Magic's in the air

So why no follow
Got nothing to risk
Got nothing to lose
Just go
with no expectations and no force
no negative thoughts
Follow the voice

Let's meet at the twilight
I'm led astray by the charm
By your enthralling song
I'm spellbound

04. The Tide

The moon and the sun
exerted their force
A stormy tide
Hollered its roar
For every wave the anxiety grew
and in an instant
no sight of you
The tide's just gone
Oh what have I done

Behold the northern shores
once so fair
The skerries lonesome and grey
And abandoned rockery
Now when the ebb current flows
days come and go
Deep within I know it's true
All I yearn for is you

The tide is gone
My mind's forlorn
The ebb surrounds
the islet torn
Determined by faith
your waves I await
In my self contained yarn
I'm trapped
I need you back

Supposed to find
myself in the ebb
but all I found
was a person wrecked
Realize my lifeline's with you
Our bond of affection
is indispensable
All I yearn for is you

Behold the northern seaside
once so fertile
And now the emptiness reigns
the swell soils life
The cliff's fortitude
once so defined
Now insensibility's
disturbed my mind

The tide is gone
My mind's forlorn
The ebb surrounds
the islet torn
Determined by faith
your waves I await
In my self contained yarn
I'm trapped
I need you back

05. A Poet's Prayer

Look around
What's happening here
Deforsting till the rain forest's rare
Humans acts
esvelty pure
Abundance and abuse
We always want more

I wanna scream out
How could this be
If nothing's gonna stop this
Ragnarock's real
How could this go so far
Should start to care 'cause
the end is near

Listen to the victims of crime
weeping their agony aloud
Indigenous like animals caged
This iniquity makes me yell out of rage

I wanna scream out
How could this be
If nothing's gonna stop this
Ragnarock's real
How could this go so far
Should start to care 'cause
the end is near

Hurt no living thing
a poet's poetry I sing
for those who have no choice anymore
for those who have no voice

Hurt no living thing
a poet's poetry I sing
for those who cannot fight anymore
for those who have no rights

Imagine our Mother Earth
where the ecosystem harmonically works
Picture no melting ice
with infertile bears
with gazes so scared

How could this be
If nothing's gonna stop this
Ragnarock's real
How could this go so far
Should start to care 'cause
the end is near

How could this go so far
Should start to care 'cause
the end is near

06. Forlorn

How could I be the one and only
How could this be real
You said forever
But rather never
Was the bitter-sweet truth

Feel the rain pouring down
Do brightness
No sound
Thistles all around
I'm befogged by the mist
In the mortal light
So forlorn without you by my side

In my dreams the distance is gone
Earth and heaven are one
And the warmth is so strong
though no fire burns on
In my dreams you touch my hair
Saying I am your angel
And by dawn when I awake
You're my angel instead

How can memories
Still be so near
How can dust be clear
My safety ground
Just ripped away from me
So forlorn out here

See the ravens encircle
The barks' blight
That enlace the trees tonight
Oh I hope and I pray
Every night
Every day
So forlorn
I'm just fading away

In my dreams you touch my hair
Sying I am your angel
And by dawn when I awake
you're my angel instead

In my dreams the distance is gone
Earth and heaven are one
And the warmth is so strong...

I'm forlorn
I'm so forlorn
But I'll be strong
I'll be strong

07. Kong Valemons Kamp

Kuitebjørn Kong Valemon
Was bewitched
By the troll hag
The fur of a white bear
Is now for him to wear

Once upon a time there was
A fair and gentle girl
Her lack of worth
A crime
She found solace
In a white bear's paws shone a golden wreath
In return for herself she received

Travelled far
And farther than far
Were living their lives
And every single year a child
Until the night
She saw that inside hid a human soul
He'd rush to the hag in the icy cold

When I wake up in the morning
I wonder will I
Ever see you again
Or was it our last goodbye
I face the truth when I see
There is nothing left
All I have is a sense of you lost on the bed

It's never too late to fly
At least it's worth a try

Wanted so badly for the past to be now
Running through the wild
Met a woman and a child
And twice again
Got scissors, a cloth and a flask on her way
And there past the hill
the troll castle laid

The hag aimed a wedding of pride
For the girl's tools
she offered them three nights
Then he was deceived
But an artisan sent out a warning to him
Not even a needle could stop their meeting

Wanted so badly that nothing happened
Let's put it to an end
In the trap door there's a fell
The troll hag went straight through
And never came back
Brought the children and the gold
Off to their wedding they rode
And lived happily ever after

When I wake up
In the morning
I watch you asleep
Hold your body tight
Longing to feel your lips
I face the truth when I see
There is nothing left
Of the stormy past
But this I won't forget

Never too late to fly
At least it's worth a try

08. Goodbye

Goodbye my lover
Farewell my frined
Unwarpped my inner soul
And when
the sensual lake brought your cheek to mine
My sagacity turned naive and blind

And then
You ripped out my heart
It sank in the big blue sea
And we'll never know how it would be

How could I trust you again
Don't even know if you still pretend
All I know
Nothing is now like it seemed

See you again
Never again

Unload my ship and sail to new land
Leave the burden in the sand
The Norwegian dream just left in vain
Not a single teardrop was worth the pain

So why....
Why should I forgive
Why should I even care
You were never ever sincere
Your lies are not for my ears
Anymore

How could I see you again
How could I be your friend
When I know
Nothing is now like it seemed

See you again
Never again

See you again
Never again

Goodbye

09. Forvandlingen

Eq våkne opp
Kan'kje se min egen kropp
Ein aen form eq har fått
Kan'kje hørra min egen røst
Men rundt meg

ingen trøst
ingen hånd
ingen styrkanes bånd
Men nok av hån

Aldri mer fanga
au grusomhetens last
Aldri merlenka fast
au samvittighetens last

Som rein på norden vidder
Iler med iver men
når aldri fram
til reinens land

Som maus i skogens indre
Streve og bygge oss slott
i maurtueners land

Søker livets verdi
Kjærlighetm lykke, tid
Men ingenting me finne
Bare tap, plikter og krav
Me leiter på feit plass

Eg går i seng
Trøtt og trist
Heilt utslitt
Lenge nok eg har lidd
Ein aen eg har blitt
Frovandla

Full au skyld
Full au savn
Eg vit endelig
kjenna ro
Finna fred
Finna meg

Fyll meg me frihet
Bli ett me meg
Fyll meg me stillhet
Bli ett med meg

10. Motets Makt

Langt der ute på havets dyp
jeg så månens lys
skinne på bølgene blå
Nå var det nære på
Farens lukt i luften lå
Tuilen ei ville gå
Skal jeg løpe, skal jeg stå
Hva er det beste nå

Motets makt vil fylle deg
når du ser i fryktens indre
Du er sterkere enn alt det vonde er
for du kjemper for den du er

Lev det livet du alltid så
bare som en eventyrdrøm
Selv om
mørket alltid forblit mørkt
må du kjempe for den du er

Samlet krefter og la i vei
Frykten stoppet meg ei
møtte vredens ansikt der
Kjempet i hardt vær
Kniven hardt I brystet satt
Såret, trøtt og forlatt
Men kampen var ei over nå
Det gode vil bestå

Motets makt vil fylle deg
når du ser i fryktens indre
Du er sterkere enn alt det vonde er
for du kjemper for den du er

Lev det livet du alltid så
bare som en eventyrdrøm
Selv om mørket
alltid forblir mørkt
må du kjempe for den du er

11. My Re-Creation

Saw myself drowning the fjord alight
Recalling the pace of yesteryear's fights
Scarred by the coral reef's harsh knives
Recollected the sore sacrifice

All the thoughts
All the fears
All the blood, sweat and tears
Through scrub I raced
To seek a place to bear

Abrupt from the solar sphere down
Something pushed me to the ground
A breathtaking sight
I realized
I can arise

For the little girl inside
new steps to take
Her visions awake
New days have come
The fatal frost flown
I'm in re-creatin
My re-creation

All the thoughts
All the fears
All the blood, sweat and tears
Withered away
In darkness they'll stay
No dismay

On the mountain peak I stand
Looking down on lysefjorden
Precious and pure
but not my path anymore

For the little girl inside
New steps to take
Her visions awake
New days have come
The fatal frost flown
I'm in re-creation
My re-creation
