Jag har gjort det igen [English translation]

I have done it again

I have lingered

There is a limit for almost anything

But for you I have made an exception

I have missed a friend

One who can bear that which I can bear

The only one who understands why

When I walk halfway away from here

I want to escape to some other country

I have been locked up so many years

But you want to feel like you are going somewhere

And not just away from here

This time I am the one who is silent

My voice is not heard anywhere

Because if I can't say it like it is

I say nothing at all

You have been true

I have been someone else

So if it feels like you have lost

Remember that you were the one who won

Am I angrier now?

I used to hold back

Who you don't want to believe I am

That's who I actually am

I want to escape to some other country ...

And when we stand there with a child in each hand

As quarrelling as now

Then we know that we robbed each other

Of everything we could have had

I have missed a friend

One who stands where I stand

The only one who understands why

When I walk halfway away from here

I want to escape to some other country ...
