NÅR JAG VÄNDER BORT FRÅN LJUSET
I'm following my heart
Down a dead-end road
And if I was smart
I would let you go
Kept awake all the time
For I'm afraid to sleep
Never with me in the light
At night you're there to haunt me
Klädd i svältande drömmen
Vände bitter från den mörka
Välkomnades i misstro
När jag vänder bort från ljuset
Pulled the chains that held you tight
So hard that they broke you free
And the poison you'd carried inside
So very far away from me
Solemn wish for innocence
Carried 'neath a mind for sin
Faint resolution, a lullaby
Coming of the sun was nigh
Forgot the years
Never felt a change
But all my fears
Whispering your name
And I wonder how
While it's cold inside
That I feel your warmth
With scent of perfume
Neglecting all hopes
With fear of failure
Rejecting to cope
The marrow of my morose soul
Narrow veins make up the whole
Bitter tears still fail to form
A quelling of each dismal morn
Trötta stjärnor såg ner på mig
Lysande som sfäroida stenar
En känsla som hade följt
På både mig och dig de hade lyst
