Hemma i mörkret

Mitt i stadens brus och larm
går jag vilse gång på gång
irrande försöker jag hitta hem
men gatan är alltför lång

Jag står undrande här i vimlet
med människor stressar förbi
jag förundras av hetsen och farten
och all denna dis-harmoni

Men hemma i mörkret och tystnaden
i skogen där älgar och björnar gå
där får tankarna äntligen vila
dit där inga människor kan nå.

Silver Lining

You are my silver lining,
my escape from the real world
I am content
dreaming away with you
in our fantasy bubble
I need nothing more

You are my silver lining
you make everyday-life
seem less dull
less ordinary
You make my toes curl
and I expect nothing more

You are my silver lining
making days seem less grey
less endless
less hard and troublesome
and I want nothing more

You are my silver lining...
some day it will change
some day the real world
will
catch up

I will miss you deeply then
Silver Lining
but I will be ok.

The Amusement

Please come crawling
I would very much enjoy
if you came crawling back to me now
with your knees bleeding
and that assuming look on your face

Oh please come crawling
please come asking for more
begging
wanting to have your dirty ways
with me
Oh how hilarious it would be

Please
come crawling
Gods have mercy on me
because I would enjoy it
all too much
to shut the door in your face
and let you know
-this bitch
doesn't give a shit

Come crawling...
oh how amusing it would be

Pity Ourselves

We pity ourselves
right in between
these wrecked cars
derailed trains and crashed planes
amongst these illnessess and deseases
hungry people
and dying children
in the middle of
addictions, homelessness
starvation
HIV
and violence

We pity ourselves
during hurricanes, tsunamis
floods and landslides
and terror attacks

Oh we pity ourselves
but for stiff real-estate prices
for not having long enough legs
shiny enough hair
even skin, acrylic nails, fast cars
and real cool clothes
We pity ourselves
for soar throaths, long hours
high taxes
gaining weight, boring jobs
and bills bills bills

And as if this ignorance
wasn't enough
we eat and smoke
and drink
ourselves to death
and pity ourselves for this too

The world is at war
and we are at risk
but the greatest risk we're under

we've brought upon ourselves

Some Nerve

You've got some nerve to be suggesting
that we would meet again
some nerve when you wanted out
when you wanted it to end

You've got some nerve to be thinking
that I still remember your name
some nerve to imagine
things could be the same

You've got some nerve to be assuming
that I'd still be standing here
some nerve to think I'm wanting
someone who doesn't care

You've got some nerve to be calling
as if I wish to hear from you
some nerve to think I'm waiting
even if I do.

good job

Bloody good job you left in time
before you saw the good in me
You might have actually fallen in love
oh what a horror that would be?

For I surely would've held you back
I guess that's what lovers do?
Good job you never started thinking
that I could've been good to you

Life with me would've never been easy
and who wants a lover anyway?
Good job you made a run for it
when you felt you wanted to stay

Love doesn't really matter in your life
You think freedom and crap will do it too
Bloody good job you left in time
before you let me get to you

ENi07

let go

I need to let go
but I am still here
clinging desperately
holding on so tight
that my hands are bleeding
and my throat is sore
from calling your name

I need to let go
but I am still here
still thinking
you've got to be somewhere
you must still be
around?

I need to let go
but I am still here
treading the same ground
as
when you were walking
with me

I need to let go
but I am still here
waiting
Because you were It
and you hold the last piece of me

If I let you go
I will be forever lost too

so petty

I’m certainly not a good girl
for there is no way in hell
that I would ever, ever
wish you well

Maybe that is petty
and I guess you'll disagree
but you haven't earned
any wishing-well's from me

Yeah I'm a bad girl
and proud of it, too
and I am killer beautiful
and so much better than you

So I rest here comfortably
in this cold and lonely night
knowing you'll get yours one day
and it will simply serve you right

So don't come crying on my doorstep
when you want another chance with me
you'll argue you deserve it
but this bad girl won't agree
