Jag ville glömma dig [English translation]

Can't we pretend

that you don't owe me anything

that the whole world is perfect

and ignore all the time that has passed

because somewhere out there, there has to be some damn poet

that knows how I feel

think Alkberg comes the closest

he knows how it burns

So let it rain

on our parade today

a darkness above the whole town

we will ride to our paradise in a hearse

you and I

I wanted to forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you

Just as lost

Just as lost as each other

Would've put everything at stake for us

Just flee far away from the others

But I

Swallowed my pride

if I even had any left

that is

Never ever felt young enough to dream

So I wanted to forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Now it's ringing

loudly in my head on the way home

Five-six notes in my ears

Everything for love

And even if

you were addicted to pills in your younger days

And didn't fit into this town at all

Just as lost then as today

I wanted to forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

I wanted to forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were

Forget you just as you were
