Dockhemmet [English translation]

Is this the way it should end,

is this how it should be?

Think that 2 people who loved

can tear down each other like that.

Think that the hands that that stroke me

can rip up such deep sores.

Think that the lips that have kissed me

can attack me so hard.

How can I be so bitter

how can one say all I said?

How can I be so obdurate,

how can one be so fucking cold?

What is the horrible abyss

that has suddenly opened in my soul?

How can one think such thoughts

about someone one cared for?

I don’t have the strength to go through

with my friends what went wrong.

I don’t have the strength to see them,

it is completely enough as it is!

In time it will happen they will say

that life must have its course.

That new possibilities wait,

that it is wrong to look back.

For my part may life return

whatever fucking way it can be!

But right now I must confess:

It is very lonely here tonight.
