歌词
So here's your new god, well ain't that just like you
When your damnation draws nigh
Try on a new facade, well ain't that just like me
When our conversations have run dry
She said I'll take the dull ache of loneliness
Over the stabbing pain of lost love any day
Can't mourn a feeling you've never known
Can't fumble over words when you've got nothing to say
What can I say? I'm drawing a blank
Disappointment on your face, always feeling out of place
You say we're both to blame
We can try to reconnect but I'm a despair architect
The best years of your life I've stolen from you
(Is it too late, I can't take this anymore)
Is it such a sin? Could we be happy again?
Just wishful thinking that you're so quick to condemn
There's no room for me, are you happy now?
I dream I'm wrapped in your arms but we still feel miles apart, always apart
Disappointment on your face, always feeling out place
You say we're both to blame
We can try to reconnect but I'm a despair architect
The best years of your life I've stolen from you
(Is it too late, I can't take this anymore)
*Swedish to English translation
-I have to leave now to avoid traffic. Goodbye Marianne. Take care.
-Goodbye
-I might be back in week
-If only you were! We'd make a fresh start. We'd throw out our stale old routines. We'd talk about the past. Figure out where we went wrong. You'd hear no accusations from me. Johan... This all seems so unreal; I don't know what to do. Johan, you're shutting me out. Any solution would be better than this. Couldn't you promise to come back? That would tide me over. Then you wouldn't be leaving me without hope
Can we pick up the pieces?
Or just leave them where they fell
I know you're struggling too but can you meet me halfway
Halfway to an earlier grave
I feel like a coward when everything's gone sour
Like the taste in my mouth or the lies that I spout
How can I fix this? How can I fix it? Or should I not bother at all
(I know you're struggling too)
And sweep it under the rug
I don't want to face this, but I'll never replace this, I'll never replace us
I'll just sweep it under the rug
Oh, how do I fix this? How do I fix it?
You should have chose better
Now you'll have to settle
I'll just sweep it under the rug
