A Hole In My Sock

I've got a hole in my sock, fuck
I've got a hole in my sock, fuck, yeah
Why am I never enough of a grown up
To have enough socks in stock?
To have enough socks in stock?
Pushing the sock over my toe to hide my secret
And for my own comfort
But it finds its way out
Yeah, it finds its way out
 
I hope that some day, I'll be
Enough of a grown up to have enough socks in stock
Enough of a grown up to have enough socks in stock
Enough of a grown up to have enough socks in stock
 

Little Lasse

Little Lasse sits and cries
he has lost his fishing boat
Don't cry anymore, little Lasse
the boat lies in the reeds
Full of roach and bleak
 
Lasse, row homewards, Lasse, row homewards
Mother has got a child
The cow has got a calf
The sow has got ten little pigs
 

No Wind

No wind can blow us over now
They can call us ugly but never too grey
And we go heart to heart toward the sunset
Like we built it with paper and glue
And this world can't take anything from us
 
I know a boy who is so pale, it hurts to look at him
Scrawny, bony with high shoulders and a striped shirt
And hair that hasn't seen its old ratty colour in a thousand years
And he has a girl, chubby and happy and so in love she could almost explode
And she screams - you're the most beautiful person to exist
And I, I love that you almost fall over from minimal wind
 
No wind can blow us over now
They can call us ugly but never too grey
And we go heart to heart toward the sunset
Like we built it with paper and glue
And this world can't take anything from us
 
I know a girl who is so tall, that she can touch the stars
But still walks with a slouched body and feels so small
Because she's called a flagpole and cries in places so quiet and narrow
But nobody sees what I see
She's as beautiful as an angel when she dances in her room
To songs about broken hearts and dreams made of glass
Oh, sweetie, they can never take down your love
 
No wind can blow us over now
They can call us ugly but never too grey
And we go heart to heart toward the sunset
Like we built it with paper and glue
And this world can't take anything from us

Jennie, Jennie (Swedish Version)

I know that tonight you're sitting
In your room with a letter in your hand
You want to close your eyes but you can't forget
That everything feels so hopeless sometimes
 
You play a record and you remember
Some pictures you keep in a box
I know that you're crying, maybe you'll never forgive
That time has changed the melody
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
The world is waiting for your answer
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Life has still so much to give you
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
You're the one who makes the melody
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Live your life and live it now
 
Tonight, you want to return
To a world where you used to live
But the diary in your hand is like the mark in the sand
That the sea has almost washed out
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
The world is waiting for your answer
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Life has still so much to give you
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
You're the one who decides the melody
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Live your life and live it now
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
The world is waiting for your answer
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Life has still so much to give you
 
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
You're the one who decides the melody
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Live your life and live it now
 

My love song to you

I have bought myself an acoustic guitar
Since the day you met me
So, here I stand with my new guitar
And my love song to yo
 
You have all of those that girls should have
You can get me where you want me
You have everything that makes me feel so good
You have everything and a little bit more
 
And now we're going on tour
Maybe you want to come along
Yes, I hold you both dear
Yes, I want you both near
 
My guitar and you and me
Together we can have a good life
I don't have any money
But my guitar, my guitar has new strings
 
All I have is an acoustic guitar
And my love song to you
 
La lalala lala, lala lala…
La lalala lala la…
La lalala lala, lala lala…
La lalala lala la…
 
And now we're going on tour
Maybe you want to come along
Yes, I hold you both dear
Yes, I want you both near
 
My guitar and you and me
Together we can have a good life
I don't have any money
But my guitar, my guitar has new strings
 
You have all of those things that girls should have
The kind of things that make music in me
But all I have is an acoustic guitar
And my love song to you
 
La lalala lala, lala lala…
La lalala lala la…
All I have is an acoustic guitar
And my love song to you
 

Lilac Princess

Look, there are jewels on the shiny bottom of the night
Look at how the meadow is glowing soft and bright
Look at the silver covered silhouette of the proud birch trees
High above them, the Big Dipper is prepared
 
The borders of the Milky Way are open
Let's leave this place for a while
Lilac princess
The full moon is white
 
There are ties binding the both of us
No one knows freedom completely
Here, there are no rules, here, we can let things grow
The things we've only been extinguishing for so long
 
We only have to answer to one another
Together, let's steal some time
Lilac princess
The full moon is white
 
We only have to answer to one another
Together, let's steal some time
Lilac princess
The full moon is white
The full moon is white

Now I will let go

I'm writing these songs
Again and again
Because they're aiding me
I my ongoing battles
 
I have seen men
They gave it their all
Seen men like corpses
They had nothing left to resist
But I want to go on
I want to live on
To live every day with a bright spirit
The way children mostly do it
 
(Chorus 1:)
No, you cannot keep me down
My life is taking form
Now I will let go
How long have I pained myself
I tore all the switches
Now I will let go
 
There is nothing to catch
(Tell me something, tell me something)
There is nothing to advise
(Advise me something, advise me something)
It's all about moving yourself
(How would one do that, how would one do that?)
You alone can subsist
And escape your prison
 
(Chorus 1)
 
I'm not crying
These are tears of joy
I'm not staying
Let me get up
I'm not writing
To get to new words
I'm writing this
To get to new worlds
 
(Chorus 1)
 
(Chorus 2:)
Many a friend was a foe
Many a nice one was cruel
Now I will let go
Because I have a place now
My soul-diving low-flight disc*
Now I will let go
