Seventeen

I see the trash in Ekoparken 1
And Walpurgis’ night’s 2 drunken parties
New Year’s chaos on the castle’s heights
Decay on New Year’s Day
I see happiness and a simple time
On a deserted artificial turf
And everything I’ve ever felt
Every tip and every low
 
I’ve been dragged through life
I have plenty open wounds
I have both been broken
And walked on a few clouds
I have caught my dreams
And seen them slowly break in two
I have played and lost
But also survived until now
 
I have also been seventeen
Felt small, felt weak
I have longed after life
And said one day I’ll get out
But now when everything is past
And I dream about back then
I stand naked before my truth
I can imagine staying here
 
I see older brothers’ empty rooms
When they left for something new
Bricks torn down
And the façade that they’ve adorned
I see summers full of nothing
And the students that have fled
Everything I’ve ever felt
And I know what it all meant
 
But I have walked these streets
For what feels like a hundred years
I have both been destroyed
And walked on a few clouds
I have slowly fallen apart
But always stood up again
I have gambled and lost
And yet always found the way back home
 
I have also been seventeen
Felt small, felt weak
I have longed after life
And said one day I’ll get out
But now when everything is past
And I dream about back then
I stand naked before my truth
I can imagine staying here
 
When nothing else was there
Rackarberget 3 had to do
Not far away from ninety-five
Is my beloved sixty-four
When nothing else was there
I had to stay a little longer
And suddenly I found life
In what back then was nothing
 
I have also been seventeen
Felt small, felt weak
I have longed after life
And said that one day I’ll get out
But now when everything is past
And I dream about back then
I stand naked before my truth
I can imagine staying here
 
I have also been seventeen
Felt small, felt weak
I have longed after life
And said that one day I’ll get out
But now when everything is past
And I dream about back then
I stand naked before my truth
I can imagine staying here

Rock'N'Roll Will Never Die

[Verse 1]
We were going to write poetry
To sad kids who reads ''Keats''
The one who cries to a nightingale
But never dries their tears
 
You wanted to spread harmony
And burn everything in empathy
One day you were going to save the world
But first I have to save you from it
 
[Chorus]
So Oscar Nordberg in the sky
Sings ''rock'n'roll will never die''
When the psych ward becomes a home
And love an enemy
 
[Bridge]
There are no sorrows left
In our withered valley of roses
There are no sorrows left
In our withered valley of roses
 
[Outro]
So love please stop shaking
Lay on my chest
Listen to how morning birds slowly
Sings us to sleep
 

My Other Half

I'll tell my story in a hushed tone
so that my ears won't hear it.
I'll take advantage that my heart
now sleeps through everything.
 
I was always a very normal girl.
one of those that are very forgettable.
But you made me special,
I want to go where you have gone.
 
I doubt it's later than three o'clock
and I fell asleep, tired of waiting for you.
In my mind, I thought of a reason
to accuse you of.
 
Until suddenly I heard
my father's voice behind the door,
'I can't do it, you tell her'
and my light was turned off and...
 
...and suddenly I decided not to run,
I decided to keep quiet so I could cry.
If you're not here, it's all the same to me,
nothing will make me laugh.
 
If you're not here my world is grey,
I'll try to dream that you're still here,
that you live in me, in me!
 
I've lost my other half,
the one who made me different,
the one that filled my world with color,
the one I desperately loved.
 
I've lost my other half
even though I know I'll see you again
and Heaven isn't...for me.
Wait a whole there forever,
I'll have you...I'll have you.
 
...and suddenly I decided not to run,
I decided to keep quiet so I could cry.
If you're not here, it's all the same to me,
nothing will make me laugh.
 
If you're not here my world is grey,
I'll try to dream that you're still here,
that you live in me, in me!
 
I've lost my other half,
the one who made me different,
the one that filled my world with color,
the one I desperately loved.
 
I've lost my other half
even though I know I'll see you again
and Heaven isn't...for me.
 

Seeker of the seven seas.

A blue light leads me
With the steadfastness and the glow of a lighthouse
And the coral reefs up there
They warn me of the dangers of arriving
 
Angra dos Reis and Ipanema
Iracema and Itamaracá
Porto Seguro, São Vicente
The arms are always open and waiting
 
Well then, I've arrived
I want to make myself at home
Actually, that's me
Seeker of the seven seas
To set sail I want
 
A moon sheds light on me
With the clearness and shimmer of a crystal
Transcending the colors of this life
I am painting the joy of arriving
 
Boa Viagem, Ubatuba
Grumari, Leme and Guarujá
Praia Vermelha, Ilhabela
Open arms always waiting
 
Well then, I've arrived
I want to make myself at home
Actually, that's me
Seeker of the seven seas
To set sail I want
 
A blue light leads me
With the steadfastness and the glow of a lighthouse
And the coral reefs up there
They warn me of the dangers of arriving
 
Angra dos Reis and Ipanema
Iracema and Itamaracá
Gate and Port of Galinhas
Open arms always waiting
 

South Wind

You had a silk ribbon in your hair
A lost sunbeam danced on your cheek
You were the most beautiful thing about spring

You were the most beautiful thing about spring
 
You said the winds are blowing on the moon

A silent breeze, a south wind
You were the most beautiful thing about spring

You were the most beautiful thing about spring
 
Now when we look back
We drink Aperol Spritz
Out of our cups with Berså print1
And it's easy to understand
That we were happy
That we were happy
That we were happier then
 
We both laughed while we cried
Closed the blinds and changed positions
You were the most beautiful thing about spring

You were the most beautiful thing about spring
 
I know that everything is forgiven
Every single word we didn't say
You were the most beautiful thing about spring
We were the most beautiful thing about spring
 
Now when we look back
We drink Aperol Spritz
Out of our cups with Berså print
And it's easy to understand
That we were happy
That we were happy
That we were happier then
 
We drink Aperol Spritz
Out of our cups with Berså print
And it's easy to understand
That we were happy
That we were happy, hey
 
We drink Aperol Spritz
Out of our cups with Berså print, hey
And it's easy to understand
That we were happy
That we were happy
That we'll be happy after all

Freddie

I have nothing valuable to give, more than 60 kilos of loneliness
If you want we can share that and some secrets
Give me psoriasis and you can have my dreams
Give me one last kiss and you can have everything you want
 
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
But I deserve nothing
 
I have nothing valuable to give, more than dirt and shame and skin and bone
If you want you can have all of that, because I have no more to offer
Give me psoriasis and you can have my dreams
Give me one last kiss and you can have everything you want
 
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
But I deserve nothing
 
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
 
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
Freddie said he wanted everything, but I only want to be yours
But you deserve the whole world
 

All You Do And That You Exist

It was a morning in December
Frozen hearts, frozen hands
Heated looks, cold shivers
We were only 17
You looked up and smiled at me, and I realized that I hate you.
 
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
 
Never have I met someone so narrow-minded and stupid.
Someone who lies so much, I don't understand how you have the energy.
So full of lies and so full of betrayal
Completely devoid of, completely devoid of, completely devoid of self awareness
Acting without reason, subjective without function
 
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
 
Your shortage of humor and lack of logic, makes you not be like anyone else
No you must be unique
Since other people's happiness makes you sad, other's sorrows make you happy
Other people survive on love, but you thrive from hate
Acting without reason, subjective without function
 
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
 
You narcissistic, selfish, offensive thinking, horribly undestroyed, simply annoying
I've been thinking about all the people you hurt, thought of all these fools
Look back if you dare, we were only 17
 
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you...
I hate that you exist when you talk even more.
Your extreme way of reasoning.
Everything you do and that you exist.
 

Last Dance Of The Night

You know nothing more beautiful
than the smoke against the red lights
I know nothing more ugly than me
 
But one waste's no time being sensible
When the need for acknowledgement is burning
 
You don't understand anything
But I want you anyway
Being easy makes me so tough
 
But come over and we'll do something
Come here and we'll do something we're not allowed
 
So this night ends
The cigarettes burned out too fast
You are so drunk, I am so empty
I am so smart, You are so dumb
There is no way you may understand
There is no beautiful metaphor
I let go of all illusions
and keep on dancing to the sad songs
 
Desperately expectant faces
I barf on all strong individuals
But tonight I'm no better myself
Because Håkan is playing and I'm screaming
 
So this night ends
The cigarettes burned out too fast
You are so drunk, I am so empty
I am so smart, You are so dumb
There is no way you may understand
There is no beautiful metaphor
I let go of all illusions
and keep on dancing to the sad songs
 

95

Show me what you're feeling, I'm open to suggestions
Do you want to be daring? Because I don't want to be weak
I remember when it was Us and I remember our last day
Your heart wanted to stop but your soul needed to get away
Away from everything that was, also meant away from me
But tonight you're back so now I'm playing for you
And if I could write you'd be every word
And if I could sing you'd be every tone
 
I can play CD's like it's 95'
Heart screaming melodies that follow you home later
Playing 'Don't Look Back In Anger'
If so only for one night
It should be you, me and friends of ours
The rest can go home
 
I wonder how it went with your dreams and your life
Did you travel around the earth and did you ever get to Paris?
Did you fall in love the way they only do in the movies?
I've been walking in old footprints and time have stood still here
Remember when we talked and the hours kept running?
Yes, the sun shone on us but autumn at last arrived anyway
And if you could stay here until winter turns to spring
Maybe we'll find each other, maybe we'll escape from here?
 
I can play CD's like it's 95'
Heart screaming melodies that follow you home later
Playing 'Don't Look Back In Anger'
If so only for one night
It should be you, me and friends of ours
The rest can go home
 
Show me what you feel because I need something more
Something I can remember before it's all too late
Because in the lyrics I have written you've been every word
And in the songs I've sung you've been every tone
 
I can play CD's like it's 95'
Heart screaming melodies that follow you home later
Playing 'Don't Look Back In Anger'
If so only for one night
It should be you, me and friends of ours
The rest, the rest can go
 
I can play CD's like it's 95'
Heart screaming melodies that follow you home later
Playing 'Don't Look Back In Anger'
If so only for one night
It should be you, me and friends of ours
The rest can go home
 

Three Words

Yeah, those three words ...
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
I like it so much when you laugh, when you are happy
When you stroke me in my hair, no one does that now
You looked so mysterious when you cooked for me
You were so cute when you broke something
 
You wanted to know everything, what you could
You couldn't dance, but you didn't give up
We trained it in the evenings and then we made love
So why we aren't happy, when we were planning it?
 
That enchantment fades as the time goes
This is normal, this happens with love
But you have to appreciate your darling
Mistakes start to bother you, you mustn't try to find them
 
And I, idiot, said one day: It's not like it was earlier
I don't like you anymore..
You said: 'I'm very sorry, I should go,'
I said: 'You should go,' and you went
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
I said: 'You should go,' and you went...
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
Why does a person realize, what he had
Only when he loses everything, what is this fate?
I wanted to have perfect, painted girl
I wanted a salt water from the source
 
Maths is really a science
But you can't trust it in relationships
A hundred is not more than one, when that one loves you
A hundred of acquaintances doesn't replace one friend
 
You can't take away what you once said by a waterfall of words
You can't erase a memory, you aren't Man in black
When I said those three words: You should go
I told myself for the first time that horrible lie
 
In the morning I will be good, I just have to sleep
But in the morning I felt sick to my stomach, you know what I mean
I still like you and I can't stand being alone
It's such a big punishment for those three words
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
I said: 'You should go,' and you went...
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
It was like that...
Those three words...
You should go...
 
I said: 'You should go,' and you went...
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 
You can feel my heart, you can be my love,
I will be there whenever you just walk on by
 

High Heels

I know you're doing what's right
Better to flight than, than poorly fight
If you want to you can hide, I will never judge you, no
I will always be there, always remember, never forget you
 
Alone in the room, walls unbreachable
The door's locked and the key unreachable
 
You want to rid yourself of those
Those who lie, who are wry and sly
You want to run away from here
On high heels
You want to progress, but you retrogress
You want to progress, but you regress
You'll never manage to run away
On high heels
 
Verse 2:
You want to hide away from the truth
Hide away from reality
Conceal everything in a deceitful haze
Pretending to be in a daze
 
Because everything is someone else's fault
Flee from responsibilities, duties
It's not your problem
Confer with your conscience
 
Alone in the room, walls unbreachable
The door's locked and the key unreachable
 
You want to rid yourself of those
Those who lie, who are wry and sly
You want to run away from here
On high heels
You want to progress, but you retrogress
You want to progress, but you regress
You'll never manage to run away
On high heels
You want to rid yourself of those
Those who lie, who are wry and sly
You want to run away from here
On high heels
You want to progress, but you retrogress
You want to progress, but you regress
You'll never manage to run away
On high heels
 

Rémálmok

Van egy kis ház egy tökéletes kis dombon
Mint egy tündérmese
Van egy kisgyerek, és millió mód, hogy érezd magad
Elkapott egy hurrikán
Papír vékony falak
Mérges szavak a folyosóról
Valami megváltoztatta őket
Időnként rá gondolok
 
Egy szellem van a szoba sarkában
És nem tetszik
Elalszok a takaróval a nyakamig
És megpróbálom legyőzni
Mondanom kell, hogy nehéz bátornak lenni
Amikor egyedül vagy a sötétben
Mondtam magamnak, hogy nem fogok félni
De még mindig rémálmaim vannak
Még mindig rémálmaim vannak
 
Minden kis dolog visszahúz
Felásom a régi emlékeket
Mindig én voltam az, aki elengedett mindent
Beraktam a félelmeimet egy bőröndbe
És elzártam őket
Még mindig megszállnak
Egy helyen, ahol nem találnám őket
Még mindig megszállnak
Időnként gondolok erre

Stop Claiming You're Innocent

Stop claiming you're innocent
I know all the hurt you've done me
You don't know what consciousness is
You only want bad things to those who've done you good
 
Enough!
Don't kneel, go away
If you regret anything
Try to cry
 
Stop claiming you're innocent
I know all the hurt you've done me
You don't know what consciousness is
You only want bad things to those who've done you good
 
Enough!
Don't kneel, go away
If you regret anything
Try to cry
 
When you left
You told me to cry, but I didn't
I carefully forgot
That once I loved you
Today you see me so happy
And different
Jesus won't punish an innocent son
 
Enough!
Don't kneel, go away
If you regret anything
Try to cry
 
Enough!
Don't kneel, go away
If you regret anything
Try to cry

I can't anymore*

Only you know how to fly
without fear and with white wings you go
from my April to the wide sea
where I can't even find myself.
 
You break my voice,
you have the strength of reason,
one by one, my fears are
erased with your presence.
 
Is it your voice, your way of being
the light that illuminates every morning
you give me peace, your voice my truth,
if you want I'll try loving you.1
 
I carry you in my heart, nailed to my soul
I carry you within, I have much to say2
I can't love you anymore than I do,
when you're not here I'm overcome by fear.
 
I carry you in my heart, nailed to my soul
I carry you within, I have much to say
I can't love you anymore than I do,
the more it hurts, the more I love you.
 
Only you make me dream
you're the remedy to my loneliness,
I don't know where you end
and I begin to be myself.
 
My truth, it dies in you now
your light guides me and makes me feel
like my would is only for two,
I was lucky to have met you.
 
Is it your voice, your way of being
the light that illuminates every morning
you give me peace, your voice my truth,
if you want I'll try loving you.
 
I carry you in my heart, nailed to my soul
I carry you within, I have much to say
I can't love you anymore than I do,
when you're not here I'm overcome by fear.
 
I carry you in my heart, nailed to my soul
I carry you within, I have much to say
I can't love you anymore than I do,
the more it hurts, the more I love you.
 
I carry you in my heart, nailed to my soul

I can't love you anymore than I do,
the more it hurts, the more I love you.
 
Is it your voice, your way of being
