5th try

Everything can be repaired one time, two, three
Maybe four but five is the limit
Everything is broken, blown up and the shards1 lay in piles
I pick it up and put it together into something new now
It looks off, but it's the best I've got
Like a longed for retard child2
 
The last I heard was that you were married
That it was a bit crazy and a bit ironic
Headed to the internet to se the face
He was red and mushy like he had too much beer
And I'm glad he's not better looking than me
 
Everything could be repaired one time, two, three, four, but the fifth try was terrible
 

• 1. flis in swedish means both shards and specifically wood chips
• 2. the swedish phrase is also
  condescending

Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong thing

I was going to run after but I stumbled and fell
Sometimes you do the wrong thing, sometimes you do the right thing
They yelled 'Stop the car, come on, decide'
So I closed the door and left thinking for later
And when I think about it this much later I can see how bad it turned out
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
 
It's not how you have it, it's how you take it
And when you're longing things take time
There's something between us, between us and the world
Too slow or too fast, but never in time
We just want to breathe, sleep and breathe
Alternately, nothing more
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
 
You look in an Atlas, browse and cry
What's wrong with you? You tell me
All maps and towns, and waters and places
We will never see
It's slippery and dangerous, but we need some air
On a walk in our old hometown
On christmas day, everyone answering they're okay and you know what
 
I was going to Prague but ended up in Poland
and I met Ted and now we're having a baby
And I consider myself lucky who ended up driving wrong
When I know how right it turned out
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
 
I see them climbing the trees to see more of the world
For a broad-minded life, just like us
And it was on tropical nights, and we layed awake on the rooftop
And looked out over the town where we lived
That was ours and big and tough and hard
And it would become, too small, but we didn't know that yet
 
I see them climbing the trees to se more of the world
For a broad-minded life, just like us
And your mom was happy again, with some new guy again
They kissed standing on the balcony
Then a week later here was no more of that
She was smoking and screaming under the kitchen fan
'Fucking men, why does it need to be so damn hard? And you two, listen up, look out so you don't become, such assholes.
Such assholes!'
 
We took our best shirts and headed for the carneval
Fireworks, free cinema at Pallas
Everyone was there, by the stream in the dream
We wanted to become something, don't forget about us
Everyone by Pallas, down by the stream in the dream
 
And I stole Emma from Anders who was drummer in the band
He cried and said that everything was cool
We wanted to play surf but it ended up being mostly punk,
hard, mercyless and heavy
You had stopped eating, you had stopped talking
you hated everything and wanted to die
Which you confided in me
And said 'Markus I'm your girl,
but don't tell anyone, you seem like the kind of guy you can trust'
But I who had never been kissed couldn't keep quiet
And the day after it slipped out and you broke up
Yeah you broke up
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do exactly nothing but it ends up wrong anyway
 
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
Sometimes you do the right thing, sometimes you do the wrong, live with it
 
All this time that I have rested and hesitated
Rested and waited and thrown away
Not now, but maybe later I will also think
That everything bad brings something good
 

Hurt more & more

You call it strangeness
I call it Strängnäs
Yiu call it life
I call it a town by the water
You call it sunset
I call it the time before darkness
And you’re weird
And I’m weird but
 
Oh, Hallelujah
What are you supposed to do,
when the heart refuses to listen?
Teenage feels
Did everything use to be black and white
But with you I don’t know anything
 
If this is what we were chasing
Why does it hurt more and more?
If this is everything we hoped for
Why does it so quickly get so difficult?
If this is what we were chasing
Why does it hurt more and more?
 
Then when summer arrived
We turned over and feel back asleep
Took for granted ’til everything was deserted, was abandoned
I wanted more than you
So I made my circles smaller than where you used to be
That started our mistake, number
 
two. What are you supposed to do?
What are you supposed to do,
when the heart refuses to listen?
 
If this is what we were chasing
Why does it hurt more and more?
If this is everything we hoped for
Why does it so quickly get so difficult?
 
If this is what we were chasing
Why does it hurt more and more?
If this is everything we hoped for
Why does it get so difficult
