Weekend lights
It's far, from over
It goes on, and on
Concrete, on my shoulder
Can I walk, you home
We need some weekend lights now it's Monday, and I can not stay inside
The fear will kill me tonight if you don't call me, and save me from my mind
I'm at the subway now going for it, my headphones plugged on tight
Going for weekend lights
This is your problem
Don't drag, me down
Can you hear? They're all calling
Let's go, down town
I need to be blinded. Take me there, before I'm to old to care
For me and everyone
We had a vision, we had a vision, we had a vision and expensive shoes
But every plan and good idea, is getting mixed up with gin and juice
The pretenders, all money spenders, the bad headaches I'm all of that
Its gonna come down , its gonna come down and when its come down, I wont come back
I love the nighttime, I Iove the nighttime, I love the nighttime more than I love you
I'm giving it away, its all for free, giving it away and there..s no undo
A creditcard and a passport, good combination, don't stay here
You deserve some happiness, forget about patience, just go there, go there
Close, isn't close enough
I'm no longer one of us
Lay down and look up
Let everything stop
Got your hand in my hand, your hand and a burning heart
I'm naive, yeah this is it, this is the perfect start
So many thoughts, and no time, I got speed to save the day
To feel this good, will mess whit my mind, I got speed to get away
We gonna get away. Got speed to get away
The greatest
There's no loopholes in these laws
No long way around
No young brother you can pay, to get your dirty job done
I don't wanna disappoint you, no more
Cause you're my favorite friend
If I make more mistakes like that
Just brake my nose again
Cause you. Bring .Me. Peace. When you speak
So follow me to Denmark, we'll take my girlfriends car
Pretend that we are winning
In Copenhagen bars
It's not that far
And say may name, tell me were the same
Tell me you're tired to, cause I'm tired and I wanna be just like you
Were did everyone go? Don't tell me I don't wanna know
Just wanted to make you proud, and god knows I try
You let me win
Arlanda
You play it safe. You think you're old and it's all forgotten
A common mistake. Can't really tell if you're on the bottom
Is this ok? I'm not taking any chances
But those summer days, they all have your name
So come and remind me. You queen of my diary
I remember every word. You're my first last and only girl
Nothings forever. But I will be better
No matter what you've heard. You're my first last and only love
Choose life. I choose television
The other side. Looks ok but I prefer fiction
The sweet warm sun. Is kept out whit dark curtains
I'm choosing life. But without you, I'm no longer certain
38
I've been all over this town, riding the bus going underground
I'm driving past your door, but for all I know you might not live there no more
Thou its 40 minutes away, I buy milk and cookies at your store every day
I take all my medicine, cause letting you go is like heroine
Sthlm is one small town but its bigger than me and its holding me down
To every place we went and I know its so stupid but I go there again
I know just what to say, repeating the words in my head every day
We met, that's the beginning, now letting you go is like heroine
I can't let go
Put you're hands up för Örnsberg
I love this city, thou I'm always choking
Don't know how many times my heart been broken
Walk across the schoolyard, 10 years later
For a second I thought I saw you're face there
So take me away cause this summer is so over
Got nothing going on, were just getting older
Sthlm. Let me go. Sthlm youre not my friend anymore
I'm always running. Can't get it together
Thought it was you and me forever
Out on the south side, were laughing and joking
About how many times our hearts been broken
At night, at night. I can never ever ever sleep
Look out the skyline, its you and me its you and me its you and me its you and me
I'm still wondering. What it could been.
Every city
Free translation from Håkan Hellströms: "jag har varit I alla städer"
I still hear. The city streets are calling me. I still se. Your burning eyes in front of me
You were 21. when I left for London town
They told me. Don't leave Sthlm. You will never be the same my friend
In my opinion. If you do. Don't ever come back here again
But I left for you. But London never came thru
I gave my heart away in 2004. she said I'll take it if no one knows
And hand in hand. we headed for Amsterdam
But I knew right from the start. That she was gonna tare me apart
We're at the airport its 98. We took our last chance to get away
My best friend and me, had just discovered ecstasy
Please sir let him stay. The police looked in my eyes and then they took him away
And I fell like have given my all, still I haven't found what I've been looking for
Been in every city. Looking for you
Sometimes I feel like I've seen everything. You who tried but could never win
The ones who got away. You who always said you would but you always stayed
But we were never really friends. We were dancing, drinking and singing until the end
You came to me when you felt weak. And I helped you back up on your feet
And I came to you on lonely nights, there and then everything was so right
But you laid down on the tracks. You were fed up and you never looked back
And I feel like I have given my all, still I haven't found what I've been looking for
Been in every city. Looking for you
My heart is black
Shoegazing
Stay with me in the sun. Stay with me in the sun
Don't go back were we begun. Stay with me in the sun
Don't let the devil get away. Those who loved you never stayed
Got some money left to burn. I will never learn
Is it not enough that your sweet face. Is all over town? Yeah it's all over my town.
Is it not enough that I can't replace? The bracelet that you made? Thou its bringing me down?
Is it not enough that every song I hear. Takes me right back. Right back there?
And when I drink and when I dance. I reach for your hands
I go to work but I can never go home. I call everyone I know. From the bus stop
My hand shake I cant hardly speak. When I go to meet you up
Cause it's never enough
Away away
The search goes on and on. My head rings dong dong dong.
My house is not my home. So the search goes on and on on and on and on.
This is all I want to remember. So keep on playing your cords on your Fender.
And beat the living life out of your drums. Howl your saxophone on and on and on.
Cause I won’t argue with the truth. You make all the lonely girls and boys sing with you.
If you think of them as dumb. All the lonely nights I sang with you then I’m dumb, dumb dumb. So I run, run, run, run.
We look like a perfect blend. So tell me you want me and tell me again.
Its easy to say and if you don’t mean it, tell me anyway.
Wake up in my dream
You’re on your way and all I ever wanted to explain.
Got stuck in a December evergray. Now its May.
I follow your path. No shoes on and I wont look back.
Collecting pieces you leave behind. Now they’re all mine.
But Its heavenly now. I will wait up here. Forever.
It all fades somehow. When you wake up in my dream.
I know there is no use but I don’t have anything better to do.
I rather waist my time then sit and complain. You use to say.
It wont be cold again. I got superglue and a lonely friend.
As long as she’s happy and I can pretend. I’ll pretend.
