Hanging from the Ceiling
S G Arndt Sep 2017
I wish I could feel this
What's real anymore?
Maybe, just maybe
All I need is your kiss

Maybe, just maybe
You could save me from this dark abyss
Please hurry, please save me
From this dark abyss

Please hurry,
Please save me
These ropes hang from the ceiling
Ropes don't you see

These ropes hang from the ceiling
You left me with no feelings
No other way for me to move on
That's why, ropes hang from the ceiling

No other way for me to move on
This might finally be the time
For me to get gone
So goodbye world, make sure my name lives on.

Nothing is still
You don't know

Nothing is real
You need to know
In my world
No one is real

S G Arndt Dec 2019
As the clock strikes 2 a.m. in San Jose, the mother of four calls it a day, counts up her earnings, and takes the bus home to her flat, where her oldest son, age fifteen, has put his siblings to bed, and just as he begins to relax, he remembers tomorrow there is a test, one he has not studied for, one he has no need for, his job is to be the man of the house, but his teacher will fail him no doubt.
S G Arndt Mar 2016
This is your first time
Just remember
This is your first time ....

Girl
Hold me tight
As we race through the night
On your first time
You may get a little lost
With your heart racing
Your cautious thoughts begin to fade into the night ....

Now you are in my world
And I'm asking you to stay
I know it is your first time
Girl come take a couple drinks
Relax your grip
But please don't slow down
There's only one thing that I want
And with one more you will find out
You see in my world no one is safe
I think you can see by my face
That this is not only your first time
But our last

You and I
S G Arndt Mar 2016
Lay next to me
Hold on to me
Beg to me
Get high with me
Take it off for me
Feel me
Open your mind with me
See the world with me
Please don't leave me
Baby please
Don't cry with me

Owe Me an Explanation
S G Arndt Sep 2018
You still owe me an explanation
Before you ruin another night
All the questions
All the pain
No need to start again
When we both know
Where it will end
Secrets exposed
All the stones unturned
All the memories
Let them burn

Concrete Confinement
S G Arndt Sep 2017
we built these walls
we built it all
we built these cities
we will one day, watch them fall

we hold it all in
we hold back the pain
we hold back the anger
we must learn, we must gain

we must learn
we must grow
we will in time
we will show

escape from the city
escape from the insanity
escape from these walls
escape from it all

Only One
S G Arndt Jul 2016
I find it harder to smile everyday

Girl when I see your face
See your face
Oh girl when I see your face

Only one
I tell you you are the only one
Only one

"I really, really needed you tonight baby...

You said you'd call...

No one said love was this hard"



I told you not to fall in love
I told myself not to lose control
You beg me to fall in love
I try to leave you
I try to show you
I try to tell you
Not to fall in love

The Thunder Claps
S G Arndt Sep 2017
I no longer,
live with doubt.
Because of this,
I am stronger.

These night winds,
howling.
In the distance,
the thunder claps.

These storms,
have left me with cracks.
Like scars,
from the past.

I no longer,
live with fear.
Because these storms,
have made me stronger.

But it's just you and I tonight

Velvet Touch
S G Arndt Aug 2017
I remember her that evening
Those auburn eyes
That velvet touch
Words can't describe that feeling
That feeling I miss so much

We grew our separate ways
Sayin' you want to be on your own
Only I was still in love
Because of this I learned so much

I often think about those moments
And how things might of been  
A night doesn't go by
That I don't want you here with me

But then I think back to that evening
Those auburn eyes
That velvet touch
Words can't describe that feeling
That feeling I miss so much

Uncontrollable
S G Arndt Mar 2016
You don't know
No one will stop us
Enter this world
No one will stop us

No one will stop us
Do what you please
No one will stop us
Use me
No one will stop us
Take another drink
No one will stop us
Get on another level
No one will stop us

Cautious Tongue
S G Arndt Sep 2017
Be cautious what you say
Be cautious what you say
No matter what you think

You can't control the ripples
You can't control the ripples
Of the choices you made
S G Arndt Sep 2017
As I sit and stare at this blank page
I begin to think about one thing
Do I leave and follow my dream?

                                                                                            Or stay with you?
These days I don't know what to do

Sick Addiction
S G Arndt Sep 2017
these cracks grow deeper

Twenty One
S G Arndt Jun 2018
Amazing to think
You could have had me
But somehow
We both escaped

Look at me now
I’m only 21
So let me be me
Let me be free

I’m trying to fly
Away from everything
Fly high, so high
Leaving the pain below

I can’t wait to see what’s in store
The future is bright
For the 21 year old
Me

No Saving Me
S G Arndt Mar 2016
Girl there is something I need to tell you

All we do is break down your bodies boarders
Babe
Don't cry in front of me
Should I tell you
I feel none of this

And

Conquer it All
S G Arndt Jun 2018
Because of your past,
                                     you built these walls,
                                     and held it all in.

But then you came across me,
                                                     and began to see,
                                                     that things could maybe be different.

The flame started to burn.
                                              
            ­                                 We felt as if we could conquer it all.
S G Arndt Jan 2019
Moonlight reappears
You and I both know
If it feels right
Embrace and go

Liquor pours
Your favorite record plays
Compose yourself as I grow tall
Look

As our silhouettes dance on the wall
Tonight we can live our dreams
But forgive me
It just seems

That you are holding back
Please don’t hold back
Let it out
Live our dreams

Money and Fame
S G Arndt Aug 2017
You crave all the attention,
all the money, all the fame.
But somewhere within there is a tension,
and you begin to feel the shame.
These days you struggle to make a distinction,
when you look for someone to blame.
But let's not forget to mention,
that all you wanted was the money and the fame.

Conversations in the Dark
S G Arndt Apr 2019

With a friend like you
Striking gold
You are superior

Conversations in the dark
Come with convincing choice words

You'll have to wait and see

And with time you may find out
And with time you may find out
All the different sides

Pain and Love
S G Arndt Apr 2016
Girl
For you
Pain and love coincide
I ask you why
Every night
When you come
And see me
That you have to go as far
As far as you will let me
But what you don't see
Is that I'm begging you please
Baby please
Don't let go
As your tears fall to the floor
This cycle only ends one way
And girl just the other day
When you were lying on the floor
Holding on
Trying not to loose control
But you see
That this cycle is the way
To cover up the pain
Only thing is
You don't see
It's killing you either way

Yeah I'm in the clouds tonight
I don't want to fall
Girl lets play a game
It's been over a year
I never thought I'd see your face again
I had to get away
Escape the life I made
You knew you couldn't hang
Do you still love me
Do you still love me
When the lights fade
And you can't see my face

The New Me

People question me
They will always question me
I must make a change they say
Evolve into something more
All while staying true
Staying true to the core

Now you know everything
No more secrets
No more lies
I'm only 19
So girl this is all you will get from me

Nothing else feels right
Why even try

Same Old Games
S G Arndt Jul 2017
I saw you everyday hiding behind that smile
You were out here trying to make better of what you had with no help
But what you didn't see is things won't change
You kept running back to that same dude
Playing those same old games
I never understood the times
You would call me up, I questioned why
In your voice I heard cries, desperate cries
And now that you are gone
I realize why

Hunters We Were
S G Arndt Jun 2019
At the core
Hunters we were
Facing the daily job
Fueled by the desire to live—

From them
Is our delicate tongues
The ability to dream—
And desire a feeling of release
