José

I calculated the north, I trusted in luck, I pretended to be strong and went.
I skirted the old ones, cons and advices, corners and flowerbeds and went
To discover the world at the bottom of the garden
 
I drew a map, I made a cover from a cloth, made utopian plans
With the winds and the supplies of Coca-Cola1 and Mentos2, I went
To the ends of the world at the bottom of the garden
 
Breaking woods, tracing the path where the bootee points
I poked myself in a cactus, I stepped on a cat's tail, I lost myself in the grass
 
I saw the end of the world and the bottom's gate, I strongly defended my life
I ran from an insect, I stepped on a waste, I passed near a scorpion
And this is how I saw the ends of the world
 
All I've left is the cunning of a plush dog while the sun disappears
And an Action Force3 that sent an S.O.S in morse code
It costed a lot to discover the end of the world
 
Then, a very angry roar made the whole garden tremble
Is it a cyclone, some hungry dragon or a lot worse bug?
It was my mother's voice asking for me
 

• 1. a brand of cola flavoured soft drinks
• 2. a brand of mint flavoured candies
• 3. a brand of European action figures released in the 1980s that was based on the Action Man toyline (Wikipedia)

Heart Matters

There's nothing new on the news
More unemployment in our backyard1
A man sick of inflation
Died of a information attack
 
There's nothing left of what was mine
I don't know anything about you for a long time
And they don't broadcast on television
These heart matters
 
Explosions, fires, floods
Plagues, contradictions
They sound banal in comparison
To these heart matters
 
The radio announcer doesn't even want to know
About my love that doesn't want me anymore
The world falls down on information
Oblivious to the heart matters
 
Two enemy continents
Made an agreement on the news
They made peace on television
I and my love didn't
 
Explosions, fires, floods,
Plagues, contradictions
Mere events without dimension
In comparison to the heart matters
 
The president spoke to the nation
But I'm not in sync
Where does the button
Of these heart matters turn off?
 

• 1. In this context, it means 'little country'

A Little Beside Myself

Life burns in my throat
And everything I've done goes wrong
But right now, I don't give a shit about anything
Let me lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself
 
Life seems wrong somehow
And the world outside makes me shy
But right now, I don't give a shit about what happens
Let me lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself
I know where this is going
 
Just pour it on me
I'll live a while longer
No matter what happens
 
I don't think I can stand
I don't think I can walk
I just think I'll lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself
 
And life knocks in my head
And the Lord doesn't doesn't pick up his phone
But I don't care to talk with anyone anyway
So let me lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself
I know where this is going
 
Just pour it on me
I'll live a while longer
No matter what happens
 
I don't think I can stand
I don't think I can walk
I just think I'll lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself
 
When the sunlight is struggling desperately to break in through the cracks in the bed sheet I use as a curtain
And the birds tweet as soon as I open my eyes to see that it's day again
Fuck everything
 
Just pour it on me
I'll live a while longer
No matter what happens
 
I don't think I can stand
I don't think I can walk
I just think I'll lie right here
 
Just pour it on me
I'll live a while longer
No matter what happens
 
I can't fucking stand
I can't fucking walk
I just think I'll lie right here
 
A little beside myself
A little beside myself

Take Me Along

We've wandered for an eternity
We've left no stone unturned
Come on, show a sign
Show me the way, I need you
Tell me, tell me
 
When the Christmas snow falls down
When light and darkness make peace
Perhaps this could be our place
If you dare to come along, make it a reality
Tell me, tell me
 
Let me in, I want to see it now
All that which no one sees
Take me along into the dream now
I know there's much more
 
Take me along, take me along
Take me along, take me along now
Take me along to the place
Where the wold ends
Let me in, let me in
Let me in, let me in now
Let me into the place
Where your fire's burning
 
I can feel it when I look at you
I can hear you within
We can have everything we wish for
There's so much we don't understand
We're not alone - what are we waiting for?
Tell me, tell me
 
Let me in, I want to see it now
All that which no one sees
Take me along into the dream now
I know there's much more
 
Take me along, take me along
Take me along, take me along now
Take me along to the place
Where the wold ends
Let me in, let me in
Let me in, let me in now
Let me into the place
Where your fire's burning
 
It's like when one's soul breaks
When one's soul flies
Can't it stop now?
Take me along
Take me along, take me along
Take me along, take me along now
Show me the way to the place
Where happiness comes back around
 
Everything we see contains so much more
I wonder if the angels dance around us?
Deep down, we know that everything's possible
When we let the dreams in us show the way
 
Take me along, take me along
Take me along, take me along now
Take me along to the place
Where the wold ends
Let me in, let me in
Let me in, let me in now
Let me into the place
Where your fire's burning
 
It's like when one's soul breaks
When one's soul flies
Can't it stop now?
Take me along
Take me along, take me along
Take me along, take me along now
Show me the way to the place
Where happiness comes back around

A Friend Like Me

That Ali Baba guy had the thieves
Sheherazade had a thousand tales
But master, you're in luck
Now you yourself can
Be both a wizard and a magical guy
Now you've got strength in your glove, dynamite,
You've got a time bomb
You've got punch now - strike -
Hooray - a hit!
Just take the lamp in your hand and rub it
And I'll say...
 
Master Aladdin, tell me, what can I do for you?
Let me take your order, write it down...
You've never had a friend like me
Ha ha ha
 
Life's a restaurant and
I exist for you
You may whisper whatever you want
You've never had a friend like me
 
We'll say, we have the best service
You're the boss, mogul, and czar
Put forth your wishes
And they'll come true
How about an extra handful of baklava?
 
You can freely choose from column A
In the meantime, B is on its way
Take whatever you want, 'cause that's what I'm here for
You've never had a friend like me
 
Wawawa, my mo
Wawawa, oh no
Wawawa, hahaha
Skiddely diddely wow
 
Can you use your head?
Just get a grip
Can you find anything
Inside your hat?
A single blow
And look at that! (Ha ha)
Can you say abracadabra
Like this?
And disappear in a golden flash!
 
Don't sit there with a long face
I'll ensure that your Friday prayer is heard
I'll open the gates - and the doors
My job will with guarantee be accomplished well
I'm just waiting for the start signal from you
Tell me your wishes and I'll get started
Your wish list is long, I'm sure
Rub the lamp for the first, and then...
 
Master Aladdin, speak,
Tell me what you want
I'll get you up on the top of life
You've never had a friend
Never had a friend
You've never had a friend
Never had a friend
You've never
Had a
Friend like me
Ha ha ha
Ha ha ha
You've never had a friend like me!
Ha!

I am the bird's friend

I'm will sing these couplets
to name the singer,
his name is Juancho Chiviro***
and he sings in such a spectacular way.
 
He wakes me up in the morning,
he announces that it dawned,
and he keeps singing
while waiting for his portion.
 
Chorus
I am the bird's friend
but without a cage, sir,
I have a bustling backyard
where I prepare mate* with love.
 
The ugly bug (bird) screams***-,
the cardinal***- sings,
the skylark***- whistles,
the thrush***- sings.
 
I am the bird's friend
but without a cage, sir.
 
I tamed them without haste
with the leftovers of the tablecloth,
the chiviro*** was the first
and then all (of the other birds) after him.
 
There are those that in a cage
want to lock up the singing (of a bird),
but in prison no one sings,
one can only weep.
 

More than your friend

I want to tell you
this night without hesitation
that I can't endure anymore
what I carry here in my heart
 
I like so much that you drive me crazy
and I can not hide it
You appear everywhere
like an illusion in my look
 
It is a secret
that just I want to share
with those eyes
that gave light to my life
 
And this night, there's no more moon
like you shine me more
In my soul grows a fortune
by so much that you gave me
 
I love you, I love you
You hear me in my heart
It is a deep love
that completed me
 
beat-by-beat
I feel different with you
I want to be
more than your friend
 
It is a secret
that just I want to share
with those eyes
that gave light to my life
 
And this night, there's no more moon
like you shine me more
In my soul grows a fortune
by so much that you gave me
 
I love you, I love you
You hear me in my heart
It is a deep love
that completed me
 
beat-by-beat
I feel different with you
I want to be
more than your friend
 

If only you were here with me again

You were always my protector
Were my whole world
Your were both friend and father
Followed my every move
 
If only you were here with me again
If you were only near
Many times deep in my doze
There you are still here
 
If only your voice sounded for me again
Full of love and comfort
Does it help me, to dream of you?
Do i get an angel's voice?
 
Cold stone and marble angels
Are symbols' of pain
Distant from all warm memories
That are in my heart
 
Sorrow in my mind, bleached my kind
Of longing after you
 
If only you were here with me again
Ready to let me go
What we have had, shall give me power
To go my own way
 
No more tears
No bitterness
Do not dwell on all the pain i suffered
 
Let me let you go
Let me let you go
 

Let Me Be

It's the words you don't say
It's the things you never do
Just as long as we could stay here
Wish that everything could be like before
 
Now everything around us is gone
And I have no idea if you think of me a little
I wander sleepless out into the night to hide away
I wander until I fall over, until I'm gone
 
Just let me run as far away as I can
Let me be endlessly, hopelessly wrecked for ever
Let me be alone again
Cause no one knows how much it hurts, how much it hurts
 
To my eye we were the strongest in the world
To my eye we had the most important in the world
We had us
We had the two of us, oohh
 
It's the words I don't say
All the words I don't get around to
It's the dummest, I know very well
But my words have no power
 
Now that the bridges has been burned
The coal has turned into dust and the heart has been forgotten
I wander sleepless around but I don't get anywere
I look misserable and I don't feel well
 
Let me run as far away as I can
Let me be endlessly, hopelessly wrecked for ever
Let me be alone again
Cause no one knows how much it hurts, how much it hurts
 
To my eye we were the strongest in the world, mm
To my eye we had the most important in the world, mm
We had the two of us
We had the two of us
We had the two of us
We had the two of us, yeah
 
Let me run as far away as I can
Let me be endlessly, hopelessly wrecked for ever
Let me be alone again
Cause no one knows how much it hurts, how much it hurts
How much it hurts
How much it hurts, how much it hurts
 

If you leave me now

I see that you have tears on your cheek
And I guess I am the reason they exist
I could have done what you wanted
I am listening, but your silence tells me more than nothing
 
Where would we have been if we hadn’t had problems?
I can’t lie because you know everything about me
So many times I have disappointed and promised no more
If I am an idiot I will be the best
 
Because I know i’m a fuck up, but stay
What happened, well it happened before
Tomorrow I will be someone else
And I know that I am broken
But I will fall apart if you leave me now
 
Chaos here, you know how I am
Try to understand how we found ourselves there
Maybe too early to be able to say
But I know it is too late
And you intend to go your own way
aah, you are so tired of me
Deep inside you know, I would have died for you
Fuck it, take my hand, let me explain it all
I don’t want you to go anywhere else
 
Where would we have been if we hadn’t had problems?
(Where would we have been, ba-ba-baby?)
I can’t lie because you know everything about me
(I can’t lie because you know everything about me)
So many times I have disappointed and promised no more
If I am an idiot I will be the best
 
Because I know I am a fuck up, but stay
What happened, well it happened before
Tomorrow I will be someone else
And I know I am broken
But I will fall apart if you leave me now
Baby, let me be close
Even if it is never like before
And I know I am broken
But I will fall apart if you leave me now
 
We wanted the same, but it was something different
The day I gave you my hand
Because we fell down together, held each other
But I lost the grip on everything
 
Because I know I am a fuck up
What happened, well it happened before (Well it happened before)
Tomorrow I will be someone else (and I promise you)
And I know I am broken
But I will fall apart if you leave me now
Baby, let me be close
Even if it is never like before
(I know, I know, I promise you)
And I know I am broken
But I will fall apart if you leave now.
 

Friend

Catalan Gitano come here, beauty, beauty
I don't understand you
I am not francophone
The flower of age has finished wilting
I am often alone, tell me, where are my friends?
At night at the hotel, weariness is all around
I sign sheets, ink and sweat don't make any colour
The flower on the gun, I pull in the stride
Tugging so often I think that you want me
I'm crazy only during the happy hour where the hounds are
Kendji, tell me what's wrong?
Why aren't you following me on Insta?
The world is on the other side but I'm fixed in place
A lone wolf, I see nothing but what's in front of me
 
My real life isn't the photos I publish
And me, I am like my heart
I am in my craziness, I am in my solitude
A full moon and my song echoes
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend
 
If the curtain falls it's what one already completely said
There's nothing beautiful about it friend, friend
I won't succumb to the siren song
If someone approaches I've already left
At night at the hotel, the second of the day
I don't sleep a wink, the images are there to make me drunk
I live on the run, a car ready to roll
Tugging so often I think that you want me
I'm crazy only during the happy hour where the hounds are
I take them back because they take me back home
The animals united and instinct makes up their law
A lone wolf, I don't believe everything I see
 
My real life isn't everything that's said
The night lied to me my heart
I am in my craziness, I am in my solitude
A full moon and my song echoes
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend
 
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
A lone wolf, I have so few friends, friend
I roam in a pack, it's family, family
Friend, friend, friend
Friend, friend, friend

Enemy love

I have bunches of nothing, broken stars, gray scales.
I have future storms, dark words that grow here.
I have an empty house, your pictures spy on me, they laugh at me.
I have a portable hell, I hate myself for being fragile.
I break without you.
 
I have that enemy love, I have pain and oblivion.
I have your name, and even though I don't want to, it lives with me.
I have my dreams stored, my collection of tornadoes.
While you live in my future, I am the past.
 
I have crumbs of life, silence without a rhyme and the soul of a bishop.
I have the skin of a soldier after a war, with no truce, with no end.
I have emptiness in my soul that fills nothing.
I get lost without you.
I have a closed door that never opens, I die without you.
 
I have that enemy love, I have pain and oblivion.
I have your name, and even though I don't want to, it lives with me.
I have my dreams stored, my collection of tornadoes.
While you live in my future, I am the past.
 
I have your name, and even though I don't want to, it lives with me.
I have my dreams stored, my collection of tornadoes.
While you live in my future, I am the past.
 

The Enemy In Me

Yes, it's too late, and you sneak up on me
I know your voice and can't say no
Well, here and now, you could sell me anything
And everything around that
''Cause the worst that could happen' is the thought I had
You take me to where the road narrows, becoming a dead end
 
You find your way in every thought and flaw
You lure me - my favourite vice
You're the shadow standing in my mirror
'Cause my most dangerous enemy is me
 
I've tried to run, but here we are again
You knock on my door, calling, 'Come on, let me in'
You take me to where the road narrows, becoming a dead end
 
You find your way in every thought and flaw
You lure me - my favourite vice
You're the shadow standing in my mirror
'Cause my most dangerous enemy is me
 
You find your way, you find your way
You find your way, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
You find your way in every thought and flaw
You lure me - my favourite vice
You're the shadow standing in my mirror
'Cause my most dangerous enemy is me
'Cause my most dangerous enemy is me

Call Me

I don't hear from you anymore
You're not by my side anymore
You said you needed to find yourself
And I understand, some people need to disappear to find themselves
But I know there will be nights
Where your mind can't control your feet
And you end up at my door
If so, the key is in the same place as before, ey
 
I am up for waiting and waiting
For letting time pass
You know no one else is better at waiting than me
And if it so happens
If the situation allows
That you want to have a reunion with me
And remember old times
 
Then call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
You know what it is...
 
You don't need to tell me anything
To me nothing has changed
You have your ghosts just like me, yeah
We like each other's ghosts anyway, ow
We don't need to hurry
The good old 'one step at a time'
But we'll take those steps to the beat
And then dance together into the night, ah
 
I am up for waiting and waiting
For letting time pass
You know no one else is better at waiting
And if it so happens
If the situation allows
That you want to have a reunion with me
And remember old times
 
Then call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
You know what it is...
 
I know who you're talking to
And the lies they're making up
But have they seen us together?
Have they seen us together?
I know who you're talking to
And the lies they're making up
But have they seen us together?
They haven't seen us together
 
Then call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
You know what it is...
 

Friends with benefits

I lend you my eyes so you can see
how beautiful you are,
I lend you my hands so you can touch
the clouds if you want to.
I lend you my fingers so you can remember
everything we did that Friday night,
I lend you my kisses and you give them back to me,
so I have an excuse to see you again.
 
I don't ask you to fall in love,
let's be eternal only this night,
I don't ask you to be a couple,
If we are friends we give each other everything.
 
Friends with benefits and all your spite
You take them away like no one else has done
Friends with benefits, let it be our secret,
that only the wall are witnesses of what we have.
 
Hey, hey, listen to how we met...
 
It was 8:15 on the Plaza de San Juan
You were walking with a couple more friends.
You played the naughty one, like you don't want
the thing, you threw me a mysterious look.
Kill me, intoxicate me with that little mouth
come with your body, seduce me.
Let's remove the clothes
That way you look more naked, baby.
For me you are my lady, I'm your Maluma baby,
friends with benefits, your good profit
 
I lend you my fingers so you can remember
everything we did that Friday night ,
I lend you my kisses and you give them back to me,
so I have an excuse to see you again.
 
I don't ask you to fall in love,
let's be eternal only this night,
I don't ask you to be a couple,
If we are friends we give each other everything.
 
Friends with benefits and all your spite
You take them away like no one else has done
Friends with benefits, let it be our secret,
that only the wall are witnesses of what we have.
 
Let's kiss and let it be our secret.
although the whole world already suspects what we have...
 

Entirely, Myself

If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I dare
Has nothing to do with me
 
Look, the stars are dancing above us
They illuminate down upon you
Within, it's Summer
That's how it is, you and me
 
It illuminated the path
In the darkness, I see you
I wonder if you see me
I'm thinking of you
I'm dreaming of you
 
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
 
We dance through the night
At first, a bit forwards, then a bit to the side
It's only you and me
And one and two and three and four
 
It's a shining path
When your heart opens up
I hold you tight
Waiting...
Dawn's breaking
 
And when I come home
And I see the door is ajar
I turn around, thinking 'Everything can happen
The night is vast'
 
You soar
Above other girls, you say
'Only I exist
There's only me
(For you)'
 
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
 
One and two and three and four
 
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I dare
Has nothing to do with me
 
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I do
Has nothing to do with me
If I just could be entirely myself
Everything I dare
Has nothing to do with me
 
If, if, if I could
If, if, if I could
If, if, if I could
Be entirely myself

Melt An Iceberg

[Intro]
Oh
Ooh ooh ooh

And what is it about you that attracts me?
Your gold earrings and your wallet?
No!
It's your eyes and the way you look at me
 
[Verse 2]
Why do I go crazy every time I see you?
Why do I go crazy?
Yeah, and what is it about you that I, that I like?
Your mink fur and your Jaguar?

It's how you look when I watch you from behind
 
[Chorus]
Ooh, and you could melt an iceberg
If you came any closer
Oh, you could melt an iceberg
If you came any closer

Ooh, and you could melt an iceberg
Yeah, ff you came any closer
Oh, you could melt an iceberg
Oh yeah, if you came any closer
Oh, you could melt an iceberg
If you came any closer

You Raise Me

When I am sad and everything feels at its worst
When great sorrows weigh down my mind
So I wait in silence for You Lord
When You come with all your love
 
You raise me to the mountain's high peaks
You raise me - Your power is so enormous
it is with You, that I shall find my solace
help me to stand against temptation and storms
 
You create life and light and much happiness
even when my heart beats a timid beat
I become strong, every time You are present
because You bless me everyday
 
You bring hope, where the hope is crumbling
You give me courage - You are the life's salt
and when I sit high on Your shoulders
I feel, that I can handle everything!
 
It is Your mercy, I have so often felt
and the eternal's light, it glances over me
It is Your salvation, that is the creation
so please accept my deep gratitude for You
 
Yes, please accept my deep gratitude for You
 

In the Middle of the Road

I've found a place for both you and me!
I know that there's a good place, if you want to discover it...
Come with me, far from here!
 
Let's go out, when the night won't let us sleep...
Let's go out, when the night won't let us sleep...
Come with me! Far from here!
Come with me! Far from here!
 
They said that you're off, that you can't continue,
That you're just a rock in the middle of the road...
Too old to keep up, all alone in the middle fo the road...
Escape from here, far away with me!
Come with me, far from here!
 
I've found a place all for both you and me!
I know that there's a good place, if you want to discover it...
Come with me, far from here!
Come with me, far away with me!
Come with me, escape from this place!
Come with me, far away with me...
 
Go far away with me...
 

Friend

(Boy)friend, you don't exist.
You don't call me because I don't pick up.
You don't visit me because I don't ask you to come.
I've always refused to learn your address.
 
(Girl)friend, you don't matter,
you don't have an opinion, I don't know what you like.
Whenever I run into you it's always a hold-up, and I find it hard to do sober.
 
Where is it that it's going to be? Who is it that's going to be there?
I don't even know what to wear.
I'm not in the mood to make myself over.
 
Because, (boy)friend, I don't know what's going on, but it's like this.
I very much like my house and myself.
My mess, my filth, my way of getting things done.
(Girl)friend, do you know what that is, to love yourself?
 
But the night comes,
makes me shut up.
Everyone is out there
and I am without anyone.
And once again, (boy)friend,
I want to talk to you, no, sorry
I want to hear you.
And now I miss what is tackiest in you,
and the joy of knowing that it's losing myself in you.
It's always late, friend,
that I see that what I love in you is what I hate in me.
 
if i translate poorly i can just hope that encourages someone to tell me better!

Love, Me

Not that long ago
We used to be together all the time
Now, I'm just lonely like before
And I don't want to know
If there's someone by your side
Someone who loves everything you do, too
 
'Cause I'm afraid that you've long since forgotten me
And it scares me that I'm still thinking
 
'Cause Copenhagen seems too big without you
And Nørrebro1 isn't just child's play anymore, no
The world seems so pale, and I, oh, I
I miss you, love, me2
 
If you're in doubt
Just call or text me
I'm just waiting to hear from you
I'm about to give up
I know you're alive
So what's your silence supposed to mean?
 
I wonder if it was all just deceit
But even if it were, I'll love you forever
 
'Cause Copenhagen seems too big without you
And Nørrebro isn't just child's play anymore, no
The world seems so pale, and I, oh, I
I miss you, love, me
 
P.S., come back
I miss the things you gave me
I miss your scent and your bed sheets
Miss Summer nights on your balconies
I miss making plans while in bed
I also miss you when I train
Miss seeing you angry when you lose
I'm trying to move on
 
'Cause Copenhagen seems too big without you
And Nørrebro isn't just child's play anymore, no
'Cause Copenhagen seems too big without you
And Nørrebro isn't just child's play anymore, no
The world seems so pale, and I, oh, I
I miss you, love, me

Dumb Like Me

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Sly)
 
Let's just drop it
Our relationship feels like a crashing plane
And it's a waste of energy
And a waste of time, yeah
This isn't going to grow
'Cause we've grown stuck the same place
And you seem to not care
(Yeah-ee-yeah)
 
You've been with someone else - hey, fuck it
Calling as though no one knew about it
Imagine that I'm the adult
And imagine that this was how we would end it
You were fucked up - imagine that I believed you
And the small things went over your head
There are girls who are dumber than you
But not as dumb as me
 
'Cause I've spent my money on you
Now I'm broke
But I'd rather be poor than not care
(Oh-uh-wow)
I saw you with someone else who was
Just like me, like me, yeah
There are girls who are dumber than you
But not as dumb as me
 
Like me, like me
Like me, like me, yeah
Like me, like me
I saw you with someone else who was
Like me, like me
Like me, like me, yeah
There are girls who are dumber than you
But not as dumb as me
 
Don't just expect
That I can fall in love
In someone else that quickly
(That quickly, yeah)
I'd rather have you with me
Than getting involved
 
With another girl
(Oh yeah, you don't understand anything)
 
You've been with someone else - hey, fuck it
Calling as though no one knew about it
Imagine that I'm the adult
And imagine that this was how we would end it
You were fucked up - imagine that I believed you

You saved me just in time

What did I know when I left that summer
A stressed-out woman without a life, what was there for me
out there in foreign lands
But I got off my train, I know so well,
it said on my ticket
This is the final station, further than this
no poor person has traveled as far as anyone has seen
 
That's when a woman came up to me
She was so young
She was carrying a small, small bundle
She was so serious
and her voice was heavy
when she said: 'You're the right one, let's make a swap'
 
I'll take your loneliness,
in return you'll get my child
What matters most is her well-being
and she'll be safe and well with you
We looked each other deep in the eyes
and so we made our pact
She vanished as she had appeared
and in my arms I had you
You saved me just in time
 
I took care of a child
as best I understood
With love, imagination and joy,
and, I assume, a mother's patience
My heart startled each and every time
I heard the sound of your voice
Mostly, it was filled with laughter
and the crying, well, I always saw it
as a chance to comfort you
 
She was waiting for someone,
a wandering soul
who had lost everything
and therefore has everything to win
And so she saw one
and said goodbye
to her invaluable burden, and disappeared
 
I was speechless and could only
feel the weight on my arm
What was it that she had given me
and that made me so calm and inexplicably warm
But her action surely had
its reason and ground
Maybe she wanted that one day
I would tell you how
you saved me just in time
 
For every day that's passed
my gratitude has grown
for now I know what she gave me
The child of love I got
and nobody knows
if she hadn't been there, what would have been of me
 
We looked each other deep in the eyes
and so we made our pact
She vanished as she had appeared
and in my arms I had you
You saved me just in time
 

Det slår mig

Varje gång jag tänker på det du sa
Att det var kört för mig
Kommer lära dig nu
Så även om du blundar nu du ser det klart
För dina ord har gjort mig till den
 
Den jag är nu, den jag ville bli
Du drog mig ner men
Svär jag tog mig hit
Aldrig igen
De så förbi mig
De ingenting som ekar i mitt huvud längre
 
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Ja, det slår mig ibland
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Så jag ler litegrann
 
Händer att jag tänker på det ni sa
Men det var förut
Är mycket bättre nu
Independent inget håller mig tillbaks
Och era ord har gjort mig till den
 
Den jag är nu, allt jag ville bli
Ni drog mig ner men
Ser mig ta mig hit
Aldrig igen
De så förbi mig
De ingenting som ekar i mitt huvud..
 
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Så jag ler litegrann

Och det slår mig ibland..

Ja det slår mig ibland
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Så jag ler litegrann
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Jag har hittat min plats
Yeah Yeah Yeah

A Man Seeks A Woman

She must have a special touch
She ought to be just as she is
A normal aspect
Such that sometimes you don't even see her
 
She shouldn't be a hurricane
Neither should she eclipse the sun
A familiar fragance
That be almost honey
And so much love
That I write it on a signboard
 
A man seeks a woman
That unknown flower
Which goes through life like crazy
She's simply different
If you see her
More as a friend than as a brother
Come and hand her over
I am a man and I seek a woman
 
A love of youth
Without tricks in her speech
Shining lovely when there is light
And when there is darkness
 
She isn't the moon or the sun
Neither countryside nor city
She is herself just because
Since that's her roll
Almost nearly April
That I write it on a signboard
 
A man seeks a woman
That unknown flower
Which goes through life like crazy
She's simply different
If you see her
More as a friend than as a brother
Come and hand her over
I am a man and I seek a woman
 
A man a woman
That unknown flower
Which goes through life like crazy
She's simply different
If you see her
More as a friend than as a brother
Come and hand her over
I am a man and I seek a woman
 
If you see her
More as a friend than as a brother
Come and hand her over
I am a man and I seek a woman
 
That unknown flower
Which goes through life like crazy
She's simply different...
 

Mighty Mighty Love

In the city of rubble framed out with glass
listen carefully to your inner voice.
 
Awake Mighty Mighty Love
Throw off your evening dress on the floor
Passing through the midnight of the generation Mighty Love
 
Tell me Mighty Mighty Smile
Break out of the mirror land
Turning even lies into reality Mighty Smile
 
When I opened the door, in a instant of time I knew it
The fate connected in the warehouse town cafe
I remember in the gaze of my desired one
that I'll never let my love sleep again.
 
Awake Mighty Mighty Love
Travel the ocean of memories
Arriving in far away arms Mighty Love
 
Promises like tying the ring aren't needed
I want your palpitations that can't be made with words
It's because I want to know all about me
and you shouldn't love someone else.
 
Awake Mighty Mighty Love
At my please, the future
starts in my palm Mighty Love
 
Awake Mighty Mighty Love
Throw off your evening dress on the floor
Passing through the midnight of the generation Mighty Love
 
Hey, I want to sing
until the stars disappear
Hey, I want to look at you
until everything ends.
 

Rose Leave of Malaga

What pretty eyes you have,
Under those two eyebrows,
Under those two eyebrows,
What pretty eyes you have,
 
They want to look at me,
But if you don't let them,
But if you don't let them,
They don't even take a blink,
 
Rose leave of Malaga,
To kiss your lips is what I want,
To kiss your lips is what I want,
Rose leave of Malaga,
And to call you, beautiful girl,
 
For you are sweet
Sweet and bewitching,
For you are sweet and bewitching,
As the innocence of a rose,
 
If you despise me because I am poor,
I grant you reasoning,
I grant you reasoning,
If you despise me because I am poor,
 
I do not offer you wealth,
I offer you my heart,
I offer you my heart,
In exchange for my poverty,
 
Rose leave of Malaga,
To kiss your lips is what I want,
To kiss your lips is what I want,
Rose leave of Malaga,
And to call you, beautiful girl,
 
For you are sweet
Sweet and bewitching,
As the innocence of a rose,
And to call you, beautiful girl.
 

Mom said to me

From Ringvägen because of the traffic
I was so small, the apartment1 worn down
Erstagatan, second floor 2
 
Sofiaskolan, I fucked up
Oh but she always took the fight
Got me through school, fiddling3 with the grades
Three boys dead, others on the slide 4
What mom told me, saved my life
The economy, a sinking ship
She solved it as it came, whatever that worked
A subscription to debt collection, could never go wrong
Mom was screaming that it was someone else's fault
Met a crazy girl, my mom told me
Be careful, she's not good for you
Came home with chlamydia,
Mom said to me, I'll make small cure
And you'll be good and well
 
Mom said to me, forget the others and be who you want to be
Mom said to me, keep your head high and believe in yourself 5
Mom said to me, I'm with you in each and every breath
Mom said to me, I remember what mom said
Sleep tight, we'll see each other one day
 
(Mom said to me), you need to speak up
He's not good for you, just walk away
A true friend respects your decision
Sometimes crazy, balancing on a cliff
Mom held my hand, refused to let go
Spasmodic, that's how she was
First of may6, out and demonstrating
Dad was blue7, but they refused the discussion
Helped my friends washing Pee Wee's clothes
My mom told me, you're the sweetest8
Loyalty was phenomenal, would have tagged along a bankrobbery had I asked today
Burned papers in a tiled stove
During the war, my mom was young
Whatever happend my mom was heavy9
If there are queens, my mom was king
 
Mom said to me, forget the others and be who you want to be
Mom said to me, keep your head high and believe in yourself
Mom said to me, I'm with you in each and every breath
Mom said to me, I remember what mom said
Sleep tight, we'll see each other one day
 
White lies keep the family together
But our love is strong when we have gathered
Dad crying as if he was painting on a canvas
It was during the night my mom stopped breathing
Beginning of the year, I'll never forget the day
Woke during the night, felt something was wrong10
Missed call. Eldercare
Pure anguish to enter the code
A calm voice, told me mom just fell asleep
I sat in the car and couldn't think 11
Last we met we had a grand celebration, as if we knew something was off
But where there's life, there is hope
My son was born, around the same time you left your body
It all moves in cycles, death is predetermined
Sleep tight now and we'll meet again
 
Mom said to me, forget the others and be who you want to be
Mom said to me, keep your head high and believe in yourself
Mom said to me, I'm with you in each and every breath
Mom said to me, I remember what mom said
Sleep tight, we'll see each other one day
 
Mom said to me, forget the others and be who you want to be
Mom said to me, keep your head high and believe in yourself
Mom said to me, I'm with you in each and every breath
Mom said to me, I remember what mom said
Sleep tight, we'll see each other one day
 

• 1. 'kvarten' usually means a quarter (of something), but in this sense it refers to a den or a nook. It can be put together with 'knark' (drug) to make the word 'knarkarkvart' (drug den) which is where I've heard it been used the most
• 2. technically 'two stairs up'
• 3. basically manipulating the grades in some way or form
• 4. meaning that kids in poor financial situations were lured into criminality etc.
• 5. 'dina val' means your choices, but bears a similar meaning
• 6. 1st of may is international workers' day
• 7. blue being right wing, red being left wing, i.e. political differences between the parents
• 8. finast i världen means the finest in the world, using sweetest comes the closest (for me) when translating the meaning of the sentence, hence why I used it
• 9. basically meaning she was tough and could do anything
• 10. 'kände i magen' means felt in the gut/stomach
• 11. 'fatta ingenting' meaning understanding nothing
