Tommelen på vekta [English translation]

All kids falter with me,

I'm not a kid anymore, I'm not ready anymore

I was born in a straitjacket, way too big and I had plenty of time

It became tighter real fucking slowly

Sometimes my mother is like big stones in my shoe

Why can't I have some of you too?

Why can't I say everything you really wanna hear too?

Why can't I just like you too,

Without it being so obvious that I just need intimacy?

And that I would go with you, everything I give you

Call me when you're drunk, then I'm too high too tell you

Once I almost did it, on the terrace, at that party

So just hold me, 'cause someone else can do the rest

Just don't want to be forgotten by you

I painted with my widest brush, had my thumb on the scale

Sometimes I wonder if it's me,

Or if it's you who have to put on the mask and let it fall?

Everything I don't remember

Everything was true, that can't be made up

Just promise to never promise anything again

Everything went wrong

In my mirror, so please if you do that stuff

Pray a little for me

I said, yeah, I said: That wasn't nice

She's just like: I'm not nice, and I'm not the one I think you want

How do you know so well what the pillars can carry?

Saw flames in eyes so blue

Everything I'd thought of and planned,

I let become asphalt, 'cause everything I said was painted black

You were just like "Fuck you Cez", I was verging on "Fuck everything"

Nothing's promised or worth everything anyway

Just wasn't keen on being forgotten by you

I painted with my widest brush, had my thumb on the scale

None of us know, at least not me

What, why or who we are

Everything I don't remember

Everything was true, that can't be made up

Just promise to never promise anything again

Everything went wrong

In my mirror, so please if you do that stuff

Pray a little for me
