Losing ground

Losing ground
Not a sound
Keeping all the troubles to myself
Where they are happily laid on the shelf
And then they’re gone
A song is sung
A step on the rung
Letting every word that comes to me
Present itself as things that I could be
Before I’m gone
Let them tears be washed away
By what today
Lies hidden in your soul
Designed to make you whole
Goal
The cup of woe
Must be swallowed by
Every hollow soul
Gotta find your way
Each and every single day
Pray
Even though
The road you go
Hurts
The scene is old
Same as before, I’m told
But not if I refuse to act the same way
The way that I got used to yesterday
When I was gone
The tenfold sinner
Virtue-beginner
Loves what is inner
The guiltless soul
The woeful man
Does what he can
With his
Castles of sand
And his
Desolation row
Mind your step
Mind your mind
Find
By letting go
You come to know
What can be shown
By the act of finally letting go
Of the old that doesn’t know
Don’t run away
From the love that’s here to stay
Find your way
No matter what they say
There’s no one who knows your way
Better than you
Other than you
It’s true

    Hey man, love your music. First heard it in a video a while back. I've been trying to find the lyrics to one of the songs, Let Jesus Show the Way. I found your facebook and assumed that since you mentioned previously deleting the lyrics for A Solitary Man's Soul, that the other lyrics would be lost too. Are they accessible anywhere? Also I hope you get famous.

      Thank you! Let Jesus show the way I’ve been trying to be my own guiding star But it appears it hasn’t taken me very far I’ve tried to be my own all in all and everything But it’s just been a hard and arduous thing When I look back upon the life I have lived And the choices I have made, what do I see? All hell froze when I tried to push my way But when I gave in, all life’s good came running at me With an open heart and mind and arms Lay down your war and hate and arms Let in the light of day and let Jesus show the way But hey, I’m not religious in an old sense I can’t stand the way that most priests talk In the state church or elsewhere After having tried to decide, each time I had to make a choice About something worthwhile Now I take a pause and I take a breath and listen within Then I know how to begin With an open heart and mind and arms Lay down your war and hate and arms Let in the light of day and let Jesus show the way But hey, I’m not religious in an old sense I can’t stand the way that most priests talk In the state church or elsewhere Try to get it right from the start Unite mind and heart Choose a way And don’t go astray And try to ease the pain Don’t stay the same Love your neighbor That’s the labor Lately I’ve been questioning my own path Who know how long it will last or where it will go Now I take one step back and I watch what’s going on And I release the need to know With a broken heart and mind and arms Lay down your war and hate and arms Let in the light of day and let Jesus show the way But hey, I’m not religious in an old sense I can’t stand the way that most priests talk In the state church or elsewhere

    Hey Lars! I just wanted to let you know that I am huge fan of your music! I came across “On and On” in a video from a professional climber I watch named Magnus Mitbø. I started to listen to more of your songs (the ones in English at least) and feel like I have found one of my all time favorite artists. Your music is so beautiful and has such refreshing perspectives on life. I have been searching for the written lyrics of many of these songs and cannot find them. Do you know of a place I can get the written lyrics of your English songs?

    • @larseriksson8414
      @larseriksson8414 3 роки тому

      Hi Jake! Thanks for reaching out, for your kind words, and for the tip about Magnus Midtbø. I don’t know of such a place, but my first three records (Rust and golden dust, Inconsequencia, Dictions and contradictions) in physical form each has a booklet with the lyrics to those songs.
