Hope there´s someone


Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go

Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

There's a ghost on the horizon
When I go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night
How will I rest my head

Oh I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there

There's a man on the horizon
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow rest my head

So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed

Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, Will I go

Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

Får jag?


Får jag träffa dig ikväll? Jag har ingen anledning till det. Tänkte först gå runt det, tänkte råka springa på dig. Men nu är det bara så att jag inte orkar göra så. Antingen vill du träffa mig eller så vill du det inte.
Och vill du inte det så går jag nog hel ut ur det. När man var liten föll man jämt, men nu ska det va så jävla hemskt. Så, fastän du kanske säger ja baförvattva snäll-får jag träffa dig ikväll?
Får jag gå precis så nära att min axel stryker vid din arm? Jag vill inte vara jobbig eller så men jag är varm, och du ser kall ut. Får jag hoppa över orden om hur vädret kan förändras. Får jag kliva direkt på delen om hur allt sku kunna ändras? Dom kanske tror att vi är typ kära. Får jag gå precis så nära?
Sen, när vi har gått en timme, kan vi sitta på en bar? Se hockeyn på Dovas utan att se hockeyn, på Dovas.
Får jag luta mig närmre precis när det blir 2-0 till Finland? Kan vi köpa en öl till, som vi gör i Norrlands inland. När vi inte kan förklara hur gärna vi vill sitta kvar precis såhär. Kan vi gå till en bar
När jag är med dig blir min röst så gäll

Rubber and soul


In my mind I`m crawling on your floor
Vomiting and defeated
Total absence of grace
Your reluctant voice
saying; you decide your own fate

But I wear rubberbands round my soul
They keep me from crawling
And these rubberbands round my soul
they keep me from falling

In my repeated dreams
You stare at me with an empty gaze
You turn your back on me
And you search for more intriguing days

Loathing this
Controlling this
Let me get a hold of this

So I wear rubberbands round my soul
They keep me from crawling
And these rubberbands round my soul
they keep me from falling

And then when you are not in my dreams
and not in my mind
but we are at the same place
at the same time

Didn´t we almost have it all?


Remember when we held on in the rain
The nights we almost lost it, once again
We can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again

Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall, my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all

The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again

Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all

Didn't we have the best of times
When love was young and new
Couldn't we reach inside and find
The world of me and you
We'll never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You'll never let it end

Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all
Didn't we almost have it all

Between the lines


Shades are down and lights are out
Only the sound of distant sirens
Now that you're sleeping by my side
I can reveal what I've been hiding
Oh my
Oh oh my

Hey, look, I'm sorry for my ways
Well it's just selfpresevation
'cause I break easily these days
that's why I say the things I say
oh my
won't you read between the lines
oh my
won't you read between the lines
says that I'm already hopelessly devoted
losing ground I'm on decline
And I tried so hard but oh you
mowed me down
mowed me down
mowed me down

If I trust you with my fears
Will you still think of me tomorrow
Is there a chance you'd let me down
Is there a gun here I can borrow

Oh my
You don't know how much I lie
Oh my
Won't you read between the lines
Says that I'm
Already hopelessly devoted
Losing ground
I'm on decline
There's no hope for me
No rescue within sight
Already hopelessly devoted
I'm surprised I'm still alive
And I tried so hard but oh,
You mowed me down

I´m still her


Streets, sun warms and heart beats
You are 17, 23, you belong
You're not something to own
Glow, can't you see life glow
Unremarkable and slow
It pushes us all relentlessly on

There's happiness where and when i least expect
It's such a rare thing but it's happening
There's happiness and of course yes there is death,
Loneliness and regrets, one fire less

Live, so repetitive
Now i've locked myself out and you can't be reached
Yet, but it's allright
Slow, can't you see them glow
Every room outside, one day we are all found
One day we're those who died

There's happiness where and when i least expect
Everything that i see will outlive me
There's happiness and of course fear and death
Loneliness hard regrets, one fire less
We'll never ride into the sun with the end
Hung above our hardships and our love
I didn't cry not until we lowered you
Down into the cold ground the cold cold ground

All these things that I´ve done


When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the blackburner
You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the blackburner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
...

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the blackburner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the blackburner
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and out, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

Skinny Love


Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in the moment this order's tall

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
In the morning I'll be with you
But it will be a different "kind"
I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines

Come on skinny love what happened here
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?
Now I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?

I raise my fist


This very morning at six a clock sharp.

I stepped out in the light straight from the dark.

I went from the club to the bus and my bed.

I had some sunglasses on and took a pill for my head.

I was low I was worn out and used my light had burned out to a glow.

I was low I don't remember that much but my friends, well they told me so.

I woke up around a quarter to three. Another parking lot in another city.

Already been here a time or two.Don't need no map or some guide to know what to do.

I know which street to walk which stores to see to find the necessary.

I know in which restaurants I need to be to find some good food for me.

I'm still vegetarian, anti-American I'm still socialist and I stillraise my fist.

I'm still anarchist; I'm still atheist I'm still pissed, because somethings they enlist.

I raise my fist.

After sound-check I felt better again.I went to the backstage where I met a friend.

He said he had some plans for me and the band.After the show we had a party to attend.

You know that I always said it's better to do something than just sit around waiting to die.

I'm still vegetarian, anti-American I'm still socialist and I stillraise my fist.

I'm still anarchist; I'm still atheist I'm still pissed, because somethings they enlist.

The more you ignore me the closer I get


The more you ignore me, the closer I get. You´re waisting your time
The more you ignore me, the closer I get. You´re waisting your time
I will be in the bar
with my head on the bar
I am now
a central part
of your minds landscape
whether you care
or do not
yeah, I´ve made up your mind
The more you ignore me, the closer I get. You´re waisting your time
The more you ignore me, the closer I get, You´re waisting your time
Beware
I bear more crudges
than lonely high court judges
When you sleep
I will creep
into your thoughts
like a bad dept
that you cant´t pay
Take the easy way
and give in
Yeah, let me in
It´s war
war
war
war
Oh, let me in
ah, the closer I get
ah, you´re asking for it
and the closer I get...

Sweatbed

I try to stop the train
To get used to pain
To get used to take the shit they´re talking
And i can´t explain
Whatever happened
I try to write it down on paper
And i don´t know why you called me over
You said you tried to make me bitter
But i don´t think you would do a thing like...
That´s not your way of getting sober
Tell me more about your career
I´ll give you compliments not telling how i lie

And suppose i don´t have feelings for you
What good does that do
Anyway it´s sad to say
And ignore that i´m not looking at you
And don´t care what our friends say
Why do they bother anyway

And if you should be my savior
Would you take care of my wounds
Would you hold me and secure me in your womb

I´m the smallest lake
Fits in every city
Afraid the sun will dry me out
And i see lovers loving
And all the animals
Are drinking from my hand
Help´s the sun to kill me

And though i don´t have much to give you
I try to offer you
Whatever good i do
And what if i can´t live without you
I´m not that good looking and bright
But you know i´d treat you right

And if you should be my savior
Would you take care of my wounds
Would you hold me and secure me in your womb

The city smiles
With all it´s lights
Shadows what i´ve accomplished

Lover, you should´ve come over



Looking out the door i see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe i'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know

When i'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much i need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one

So i'll wait for you... and i'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn

Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late

Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come

It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever

Well maybe i'm just too young
To keep good love from going wrong

Oh... lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late

Well I feel too young to hold on
And i'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage i've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love well i'm waiting for you

Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late

Jag som blev kvar


Åttio år, på slutet kanske hjärtat börjar revoltera.
Jag är aldrig ledsen mera,känner inte mycket längre.
Ett kort som fick mig minnas:sex decennier sedan redan. Jag stod nära honom och hans andedräkt i nacken.
Jag tror jag gjorde något fel för han åkte bort ,vart är inte gott att veta men det fanns alltid kvar att göra på gården.
De behövde en och inte många kvar på byn och ingen som jag tyckte om. Jag antog väl att nån gång, men inte.
Sedan gick väl tiden och då föll det sig som att jag blev som kvar.
Har du inte saknat aldrig hålla nån i handen aldrig röra någon unge, saknar du att inte vara astronaut?
Nej man saknar inget som man inte haft.
Ibland när jag ska sova minns jag en andedräkt i nacken bar.
Minns en helt vag känsla av hur det sku kunna vara.
Men nog har jag fått mitt nog. Kära barn, du flänger och far. Du vet inte hur det var.

I wanna be in your gang


You´ve been a bomb and i´ve been watching you blow
You´ve been a friend and i´ve been watching you go
You came to ride, I came to dempen the fall
You came to be heard, i came to answer your call
Oh, friend of mine, when will you need me again?
You come and go, would you care to explain?
You´re like a wind, you keep on blowing away
Why must you go when you could easily stay?
Go let it out, go let it out and come back to me soon
Go get it out, go get it out and be back before noon
Oh, friend of mine when will you need me again?
Your life is on fire, like so many other times
This gun is for hire, like so many other times
You can make yourself at home, I´ll be helping you unpack
You don´t have to pretend, you don´t have to love me back
All of these shapes and the places you´ll be
All of the things, that i´ll never ever see
Lend me your shade when the sun sets on you
I´ll be alright just by being your fool
I wanna be, I wanna be in your gang
Under your thumb, under your thumb will I hang
Oh friend of mine when will you need me again?
Your life is on fire, like so many other times
This gun is for hire, like so many other times
You can make yourself at home, I´ll be helping you unpack
You don´t have to pretend, you don´t have to love me back

-Deportees-

Kilotin


Don't come close to me,
I won't let you in
And don't you point your finger
That proves that your not housebroken
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Correcting you for what you said
But you came much too close
And I don't want you to think like that

When I keep to myself
Its because I know that I don't have
anything to offer you

I can't keep up with my life,
Too much, too fast
I don't know what to do
I need some time to clear my mind and get it back together
I'm amazed by things you say
And things you do along the way
And if I have the looks you do then maybe I could do that too
But I don't think so

Once in a while, I need to hear that I'm OK
Why can't you tell me that I'm OK?

The ship song


Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down.
We make a little history baby
Every time you come around.
Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down.
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around.

We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground.
But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down.

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down.
We make a little history baby
Every time you come around.

Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings
And you, you must try to fly.

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down.
We make a little history baby
Every time you come around.
Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down.
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around.
