Swing
01:54

I am the wide open eye
That spots life for the very first time
Somewhere between swing and swoon
And right about to crack my cocoon
Life happens when you’re young
And growing young has just begun

Moving to the City

„This place is home“ is what they said
I’d say this dump turned into a trap
Now that I’m leaving I’ll leave behind
All the things that drove me out of my mind
So let’s go
In a small town now, it’s to see and to be seen
The city calls and I take the deal
I stroll through the night and endless lit streets
I’m wasted again, is the ball still at my feet?
Three a.m. just you and me
Spending all night getting lost in the city
Three a.m. just you and me
Losing my mind in your eyes, you’re so pretty
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not another hometown song
I just wonder if this is where I belong
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not another cheesy love song
I just wonder if that’s what I waited for so long
In a small town now, it’s to hear and it’s to say
The city calls and I join the game
We drive through the night, passing closed bars
I’m in love with this town and with you in your car
Three a.m. just you and me
Spending all night getting lost in the city
Three a.m. just you and me
Losing my mind in your eyes, you’re so pretty
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not another hometown song
I just wonder if this is where I belong
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not another cheesy love song
I just wonder if that’s what I waited for so long

Upside Down

Let’s turn things upside down
Refreshed, reshaped, we‘re back in town
Let’s turn things upside down
We are so far from being old
You are my reason to swing
You are my adrenaline
Intoxication to my brain
Inebriation I won’t afrain
Too young to give up when we should
Too proud to fit just cause we could
We’re out for pleasure
(Some sort of measure)
We’re out of pressure
(To waste our leisure)
And we’re not sorry
I’ll write on locker oneeighttwo
That I love you
(And I’ll always do)

Coffee House

You’ve got this smart look
So I ask you about yourself
You tell me about the books
In your polished swedish shelf
Your fashion magazines and
the premium video stream
On your TV Screen
„Oh boy, you should see“
Some guy with a car
You met in some downtown bar
Last week but you’d maybe
Invite me for a coffee
In your uptown flat
Oh thank you girl
What a chat
What a shame
After us the deluge
A generation with nothing to lose
And when the four walls of our house decline
You‘ll still say everything is fine
Anyway, I keep the surface nonstop
Nevermind, so meet me in the coffee shop
Electronic information
Some sort of degradation
Another picture on your feed
Believe me, that is what you need
There’s plenty more you should have seen
To talk about next time we meet
This fucked up everyday routine
Feeds my daily Gen-Z-spleen
After us the deluge
A generation with nothing to lose
And when the four walls of our house decline
You‘ll still say everything is fine
Anyway, I keep the surface nonstop
Nevermind, so meet me in the coffee shop
Meet me in the coffee shop
Where I try to caffeinate myself
But all it does is make me shiver
Anyway, nevermind

Let’s stroll again through city streets
Til morning rises I’ll take a heed
For what’s on fire, what’s on fleak
Youth desire is what I seek
Someone sitting in a sports bar
Wearing sneakers worth a small car
All numb cause of the din
Everybody stalks on instagrim
Sophistication, masquerading, degeneration
You could call it value-trading
Nights like this should never end
But I will never comprehend
We are young and we are glad
What’s the point of being sad?
Just let me live
Just let me swing
For this I would give
Everything
Let’s stroll again through online feeds
Where people post their secret needs
A couple girls on a boat
What you call lit I call fraud
Sophistication, masquerading, degeneration
You could call it value-trading
Nights like this should never end
But I will never comprehend
We are young and we are glad
What’s the point of being sad?
Just let me live
Just let me swing
For this I would give
Everything
I guess that’s what it’s like
To be living in the city
Nights like this should never end
But I will never comprehend
We are young and we are glad
What’s the point of being sad?

Swoon
03:50
|
|

I swing through life and then I swoon
The letdown always comes too soon
Is that the symptom of our times?
Being bored while feeling high
And I sit here in my room
Waiting for madness to loom
I don’t even care no more
Just waiting for the tidal bore
Wasted and bored through the night
Just one more drink until I’m dry
Consume myself until there’s nothing left to lose
Lately it’s been just doom and gloom
Bored and wasted until I swoon
I can’t just smile and greet no more
Behind the surface I feel so sore
Lately it’s been just doom and gloom
Why do I always surrender too soon?
Is that the symptom of our times
Being bored while feeling high?
Trapped in a spiral, this downward-spiral called youth
Lately it’s been just doom and gloom
Bored and wasted until I swoon
I can’t just smile and greet no more
Behind the surface I feel so sore
Lately it’s been just doom and gloom
Why do I always surrender too soon?
So here’s another wasted year
Sending signals in the air
But you don’t care
I am the wide shut eye
Trying to deny everything’s about to die
Until next time I swing
