Melodi: House of the Rising sun

Der er et hus i mit hjerte hvor du bor
Der er en længsel så stor
Huset er malet med maling så blå
Stilheden sætter hjertet i stå

Der er en vej hen et sted hvor du bor
Der er en kærlighed der gror
Vejen fører mange steder hen
Man farer vild igen og igen

Man mærker solen på sin vej
Man føler den skinner på dig
Men mørket kommer altid igen
Og smerten er ikke ens ven

Skyggerne kommer altid på ens vej
Og slører synet af dig
De er fra en svunden tid da man var barn
Man er fanget i tidens garn

Når dagen er slut og rejsen er forbi
Så tænker man på hvad man kan sig'
Om huset derinde i skovens stille ro
I hjertet hvor du skal bo

Der høres en stemme i mørket igen
Derinde der findes en ven
En sang den synges om tiden der gik
Om veje der skiltes og smerten man fik

Der er et hus i mit hjerte hvor det gror
Der er en varme så stor
Huset er malet med maling så blå
Tanken sætter smerten i stå

DER ER ET HUS  I MIT HJERTE

Forgotten Chains

[Verse]
I see your face in the crowded haze
A shadow caught in the edge of days
The laughter fades but the echoes stay
A ghost of us that won’t drift away

[Verse 2]
Your voice was a fire in the coldest rain
Now it’s just a whisper tangled in pain
I reach for the past but it slips my hand
Like grains of time in an hourglass sand

[Extra]

[Chorus]
I’m lost in a world where you used to be
The silence screams what we couldn’t see
The years have gone but the ache remains
A melody wrapped in forgotten chains

[Bridge]
And I wonder if you ever think of me
In the space where we used to be free
Do the memories weigh like a heavy stone
Or am I the only one still alone

[Extra]

[Verse 3]
Your name is a song I can’t erase
It lingers soft in the empty space
I walk among them but I’m not there
Just a shadow chasing a vanished air

[Extra]

[Chorus]
I’m lost in a world where you used to be
The silence screams what we couldn’t see
The years have gone but the ache remains
A melody wrapped in forgotten chains

[Bridge]
And I wonder if you ever think of me
In the space where we used to be free
Do the memories weigh like a heavy stone
Or am I the only one still alone

[Intro]

[Chorus]
I’m lost in a world where you used to be
The silence screams what we couldn’t see
The years have gone but the ache remains
A melody wrapped in forgotten chains

[Bridge]
And I wonder if you ever think of me
In the space where we used to be free
Do the memories weigh like a heavy stone
Or am I the only one still alone

Forgotten Chains

Drifting Apart

G maj BPM = 134

[Verse]
We used to run where the wild winds play
Shared every secret that came our way
But the clock kept ticking the years got loud
Now you're just a shadow lost in the crowd

[Chorus]
Too many sunsets have come and gone
The thread unraveled the bond withdrawn
I reach for the echoes but they're too far
Drifting apart like a falling star

[Verse 2]
Your laugh once echoed inside my chest
But now it's a memory laid to rest
The calls stopped coming the words went dry
I never thought we'd say goodbye

[Chorus]
Too many sunsets have come and gone
The thread unraveled the bond withdrawn
I reach for the echoes but they're too far
Drifting apart like a falling star

[Bridge]
If I could turn back the endless tide
I'd hold on tighter not let it slide
But the years have spoken they've made it clear
The bridge we burned won't reappear

[Chorus]
Too many sunsets have come and gone
The thread unraveled the bond withdrawn
I reach for the echoes but they're too far
Drifting apart like a falling star


Drifting Apart

Shadows on the Screen 

[Verse 1]
I drift through faces, hearts and signs,
Yet none can trace these depths of mine.
They weave me love in hollow grace,
Yet never meet me face to face.
A thousand eyes upon my name,
Yet solitude still stakes its claim.
They cheer me on with fleeting sound,
But none are there when tears are drowned.

[Chorus]
These are shadows on the screen, reflections faded in between.
Trapped inside a painted dream, where nothing’s ever as it seems.
Give me voices warm and near, not whispers lost in static cheer.
We’re dancing blind through pixel light, forgetting how to feel what’s right.

[Verse 2]
They echo thoughts like hollow shells,
A mirror’s gaze that never dwells.
No questions rise, no truths unfold,
Just gilded words, refined yet cold.
We build our bonds on shifting sand,
And brand it love with trembling hands.
Yet when we fall, who lingers long?
They’ll turn the page, then move along.

[Chorus]
These are shadows on the screen, reflections faded in between.
Trapped inside a painted dream, where nothing’s ever as it seems.
Give me voices warm and near, not whispers lost in static cheer.
We’re dancing blind through pixel light, forgetting how to feel what’s right.

[Verse 3]
I crave the words without disguise,
The laughter bright in honest eyes.
A quiet pause, a moment pure,
Where bonds are built and hearts endure.
We chase the glow yet lose the fire,
A fleeting rush, a dim desire.
Unplug the world, just take my hand—
Let’s taste what’s real, not what is planned.

[Bridge]
A thousand friends yet none remain,
A million voices lost in vain.
If love’s a like, then where’s its weight?
We trade the soul to captivate.

[Final Chorus]
These are shadows on the screen, reflections faded in between.
Trapped inside a painted dream, where nothing’s ever as it seems.
Give me voices warm and near, not whispers lost in static cheer.
Let’s turn the page, begin anew—let life return with colors true.

Shadows On The Screen

HEAR THE VOICES

verse 1:
I NEVER WANTED TO COMPROMISE
OR BARGAIN WITH MY SOUL
HOW DID A LIFE ON THE WILD SIDE
EVER GET SO DULL
WELCOME TO A NEW KIND OF TENSION
NOW I´M IN THE WRONG DIMENSION
AND I´M NOT GONNA STAND AND WAIT
NOT GONNA LEAVE IT UNTIL IT´S TOO LATE

chorus:
STARRY NIGHTS,
CITY LIGHTS COMMING DOWN OVER ME
WHEN I COUNTED UP MY DEMONS
SAW THERE WAS ONE FOR EVERY DAY
FOR EVERY DAY

bridge: [instrumental]

verse 2:
WHERE THERE´S WANTING, THERE IS NEED
GOTTA KEEP ON MOVING
WHERE THERE´S HAVING, THERE IS GREED
MORE THAT NEED PROVING
I´M FUELLED BY ATTITUDES OF TENSION
MY PERSONALITY IS MY DEFLECTION
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT, DO YOU THINK ?
OUTSIDE THEY´RE HAMMERING DOWN THE GATE

chorus:
STARRY NIGHTS,
CITY LIGHTS COMMING DOWN OVER ME
WHEN I COUNTED UP MY DEMONS
SAW THERE WAS ONE FOR EVERY DAY
FOR EVERY DAY

bridge 2: [instrumental]

[bridge]
HEAR THE VOICES ALL WHISPERING
AND MINGLING IN THE DARK
I´M A LONE DRIFTER
ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A MARK
LOVE IS WHAT I´VE BEEN MISSING
CAUSE LOVE IS NOT WHAT I´VE BEEN GIVING
WHILE THE CITY WAS SLEEPING

[solo]






Hear The Voices

HEAR THE VOICES

Er det blevet koldt

VERSE1:
Jeg kan læse byens skæbne
på nattens slidte mænd
når sidste sted lukker
er de ensomme igen
Når de hyler op mod månen
og ingen svarer igen
fucket up
og det blir de nok igen

CHORUS:
Er jeg mon blevet blind
eller er det blevet koldt?
Her går vi som skygger
empatien den er solgt

VERSE2:
På rejse mod en evighed
de hører ingenting
ensomme stjerner
i savn mod mørket igen
Man prøver at smile
Til gaden og dem
Svæver herfra
på vej i livet igen

CHORUS:
Er jeg mon blevet blind
eller er det blevet koldt?
Her går vi som skygger
empatien den er solgt

BRIDGE:
Ser på blodspor i sneen
Et dryp per meter
eller næsten
men jeg skal vidre 
Ingen vil jo blande sig
ingen vil hjælpe nogen 
livet kalder jo igen

Solo

CHORUS:
Er jeg mon blevet blind
eller er det blevet koldt?
Her går vi som skygger
empatien den er solgt

VERSE4:
De sidste fra i aftes af
når jo aldrig hjem
ensomme stjerner
vælter mod mørket igen
Du blir aldrig hans ven
ham der ligger i nattens mørke
ensom og forladt

CHORUS:
Er jeg mon blevet blind
eller er det blevet koldt?
Her går vi som skygger
empatien den er solgt

OUTRO


Er det blevet koldt ?

I´M WALKING DOWN A LONELY ROAD
THE ROAD OF EMPTY DREAMS

NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS

(chorus)
IT ALL KEEPS ADDING UP
I THINK I´M CRACKING UP
YOURE DRIVING ME INSANE
AND GUESS YOU FEEL THE SAME

(verse 2)
NOW I´M WALKING DOWN THIS LINE
THAT KEEPS ME FROM THE DARK
I DON´T WANT TO CAUSE ANY HARM
BUT IM KNOWN TO MISS THE MARK

(chorus)
IT ALL KEEPS ADDING UP
I THINK I´M CRACKING UP
YOURE DRIVING ME INSANE

I HAVE TO START WALKING

OR IS IT THAT ? - I DONT KNOW
DO I HAVE THE GUTS TO DARE ?

YOURE DRIVING ME INSANE
AND GUESS YOU FEEL THE SAME

Echoes Of You

C Major bpm=122

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I found a note on the window sill
Your hand writing's faded 
but I see it still
The words unravel 
like a quiet storm

[Prechorus]
Did you ever look back
Did you ever feel that

[Chorus]
Echoes of you
In every shadow
Every room
I can't outrun
I can't undo
The echoes of you

[Verse 2]
We chased the sun through a cracked blue sky
Swore we'd never change
Never say goodbye
But time has a way of breaking promises

[Prechorus]
Do you ever stay awake
Do you feel the same ache

[Chorus]
Echoes of you
In every shadow
Every room
I can't outrun
I can't undo
The echoes of you

[Bridge]
I reach for you in midnight dreams
But you're just smoke and static screens
I wake to walls that know your name
Nothing feels quite the same

[Verse 3]
Your favorite song still haunts the air
I play it soft like you're still there
But silence always finds its way back in

[Prechorus]
Do you ever stay awake
Do you feel the same ache

[Chorus]
Echoes of you
In every shadow
Every room
I can't outrun
I can't undo
The echoes of you

Its Christmas Again

Din sjæl er solgt

Only A John Doe

Lykken

verse 1:
Brændende læber i måneskin
to hoveder nyder nattens ro
de enedes om at blive to
hovede lænes imod en kind

verse 2:
To ensomme sjæle fandt vej
en ørkenvandring var slut
et behov ikke længere akut
en fremtid med leg

verse 3:
Nætter blev til mange flere
en ferie blev hverdag igen
et menneske blev mere end ven
lykke vil have mer(e)

bridge:
Skæbne eller 
vælger du selv ? 
Når du vågner
fra livets
større gæld


chorus:
Lykken dukker op
hvor du mindst 
venter den
pludselig en dag
er hun mere
end en ven

VILDE VILLIGE KVINDE (AF: JAN ENGELBRECHT PEDERSEN 2020)

INTRO

VERSE1
Dine øjne fyldte mig med lyst
Men det var jo bare en trøst
Nu er kun din duft til bage
håbløst lukket og trist
Imellem linjerne i brevet 
som du lagde

CHORUS
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er det du vil
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er du er villig til?
Så det ikke komme,
Så det ikke ske
I nattens løb 
blev nej 
til måske

VERSE2
Dengang der førte du min hånd
og du løsnede de bånd
Dine øjne fyldte mig med lyst
til løgn og romantik
Men Var det nu virkelig det
det du sagde?

CHORUS
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er det du vil
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er du er villig til?
Så det ikke komme,
Så det ikke ske
I nattens løb 
blev nej 
til måske

BRIDGE
Jeg ved du findes et sted
du store kærlighed
Og alt er nu mørkt
håbløst og trist
Med lange skridt 
på den samme kyst
Vi leder efter 
spor af lyst

CHORUS
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er det du vil
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er du er villig til?
Så det ikke komme,
Så det ikke ske
I nattens løb 
blev nej 
til måske

VERSE3
Dit hjerte banker nu
Fyldt med 1000 tanker du
for enden af min seng
Jeg har fundet mine svar
Jeg siger ingenting
Men Du er ikke den du var

CHORUS
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er det du vil
Vilde Villige kvinde
hva er du er villig til?
Så det ikke komme,
Så det ikke ske
I nattens løb 
blev nej 
til måske
