Be My Valentine?

Oh, I wish I could walk up there saying "hi, how do you do?"
I wish you'd smile at me, answering "I'm fine and how are you?"
If I could just get rid of those butterflies inside,
then maybe this puppy love somehow wouldn't have to hide.

Oh, I wish we were less shy, more forward and braver too,
I wish you'd smile at me as I smile when I think of you.
So maybe some day soon I'll pick up the courage to say:
"hello cutie, I wish you'd be my date for Valentine's Day"

There’s something going on when I look at you,
Some butterflies inside telling me what to do.
Saying “girl go get him” won’t change the way it goes,
These tingly feelings fill me up from head to toes.
So imaginary conversations might some day come true,
The day I pick up the courage to go talk to you.

Oh, I wish you’d know how difficult the right words are to say,
I wish we’d stop the “no u hang up”-in-reverse some way
“You say hi”, “No why don’t you” won’t get us anywhere,
Pick up the courage soon and stop the stumble and stare.

Oh, I wish I’d dare to look some time when you don’t look away,
I wish we’d stop the hide and seek, it’s such a silly game to play.
So walk up here and give it a try, what is there to lose?
I’d give a lot to be the girl that you would actually choose.

There’s something going on when I look at you,
Some butterflies inside telling me what to do.
Saying “girl go get him” won’t change the way it goes,
These tingly feelings fill me up from head to toes.
So imaginary conversations might some day come true,
The day I pick up the courage to go talk to you.

Is this a happy beginning and the start of something new?
Is there a chance there could ever be me and you?
Happily ever afters we can’t really define,
But I’ll steal your heart if you steal mine.

There’s something going on when I look at you,
Some butterflies inside telling me what to do.
Saying “girl go get him” won’t change the way it goes,
These tingly feelings fill me up from head to toes.
So imaginary conversations might some day come true,
The day I pick up the courage to go talk to you.

The day I pick up the courage to go talk to you.

Hajen.

Tomma, kalla ögon. Känslolösa stirrar de på mig, får
mig att vilja dölja varje synlig centimeter av min kropp.
Rösten är dov men river ändå inuti mig, skär som
knivar.

Gången är självsäker, ögonen avslöjar ingenting.
De stirrar på mig som ett rovdjur ser på sitt byte. Jag
vill försvinna och gömma mig, även om jag inte är rädd.

Rädsla beskriver känslorna fel, smutsig är mer rätt. Jag
känner mig smutsig och ovärdig och alldeles obetydligt
liten. Och ändå tar jag för mycket plats.

Kryper ihop och försöker glömma bort hur äcklig jag är,
hur varje plats som blivit vidrörd av rovdjuret jag nu har
i min närhet bränner vitglödgat.

Jag vill bort, men kan inte gömma mig, de tomma
ögonen och de starka händerna och den krävande
munnen jagar mig likt en haj jagar sitt byte. Målmedvetet.
Utan känslor. Med tomma, svarta ögon. Han är starkast.

A Truth In Black And White

When he's looking, you look away,
can't you just go, or decide to stay?
Make a try or just to hell with all,
dancing like the dead, in an empty dance hall

Reaching with weak arms, don't want it to show,
if you want him back, he's got the right to know
You can't live like this, in a haze, forever,
don't you realise girl, it's now or never

Standing at opposite sides of the door,
never opening up, never asking for more
Make your choice and make it clever,
if you don't do it now, will you ever?

You have to stop assuming, if this was meant to be,
you would still be together, don't you see
Your heart keeps bleeding and it will never mend,
if nothing happens, one of you gotta bend

Memories and photos slowly fade, get bleaker,
as your body and your mind gets weaker and weaker
There's only you, you alone can change this fate,
do you want to end up all alone, full of hate?

Standing at opposite sides of the door,
never opening up, never asking for more
Make your choice and make it clever,
if you don't do it now, will you ever?

Checkerboard confessions, a truth in black and white,
seems like heaven is too far away, try as we might
Will the princess end up with her prince I ask,
living with feelings will never be an easy task

Never opening the door, never, never, will you ever?
Will the princess get her prince, try as you might
All these quiet feelings, lost in the lonely night,
Will you ever, ever, ever?

Standing at opposite sides of the door,
never opening up, never asking for more
Make your choice and make it clever,
if you don't do it now, will you ever?

Will you ever?

Dikt.

Ensam men ändå mitt bland folk,
det är som att vara stum & sakna tolk.
Ingen ser, ingen kan höra eller förstå,
jag måste bestämma vilket håll jag ska gå.
Stanna eller gå vidare, skratt eller gråt,
trodde jag visste vilket håll jag vill åt.
Kan inte bestämma mig, det är inget schyst val,
jag vill inte välja, men orkar inte dessa kval.

The Secret.

I wish you could believe me,
But it doesn’t matter what I do
I’m falling deeper into this,
Still don’t know if I can trust you

Can’t you just erase these thoughts?
Make the pain go away
Can’t you just let go of it all?
Side by side we could stray

Take my hand and lead me into the light,
Keep me warm and hold me tight,
This is my very last fight

There’s something I kept from you,
As a protection from the pain it’d do
I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you this,
To tell you was my deepest wish
I didn’t want to cause you pain,
Your life didn’t need more rain
I’m sorry to have to break it this way,
But I have to tell you this today

I wish I had relied on you,
The way you did on me,
If I could just make it through,
Will you set me free?

Can’t you just run with me?
Make me feel once more?
Can’t we just be as one?
You and me, it’s for sure.

Take my hand and lead me into the light,
Keep me warm and hold me tight,
This is my very last fight

There’s something I kept from you,
As a protection from the pain it’d do
I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you this,
To tell you was my deepest wish
I didn’t want to cause you pain,
Your life didn’t need more rain
I’m sorry to have to break it this way,
But I have to tell you this today

I’m fading but you can’t see,
Nothing can pay this fee,
I’m lonely in the storm, there’s nothing I can do,
I wish that it was not too late, I wish that I had told you

There’s something I kept from you,
As a protection from the pain it’d do
I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you this,
To tell you was my deepest wish
I didn’t want to cause you pain,
Your life didn’t need more rain
I’m sorry to have to break it this way,
But I have to tell you this today

This I kept from you,
Protection from what it’d do
I didn’t tell you this,
Telling was my wish
No more pain,
Needn’t more rain
I’ll break it this way,
My secrets coming out
Today

Everywhere.

You’re everywhere, everywhere,
When I breathe you’re the air
You’re always in my dream,
You’re it, you’re the extreme

In a room I know when you walk in,
It’s a tingling feeling under my skin
Know when you smile, I just do,
It’s the connection called me and you

It started so fast, a smile and I just fell,
Who’d have known you’d make me feel so well?
A smile and a question, that’s all you had to do,
And suddenly I was head over heels for you

You’re all I need, you’re everything to me
You’re everywhere, like you’re supposed to be
You’re mine as if you had been all along,
Still I don’t miss you when I’m gone

Why might be hard for other people to see,
But I know you’ll be there waiting for me

No, missing you is not for me,
I know that we were meant to be
I’m in love with you, that’s true,
I’ll spend me life loving you

It started so fast, a smile and I just fell,
Who’d have known you’d make me feel so well?
A smile and a question, that’s all you had to do,
And suddenly I was head over heels for you
You’re all I need, you’re everything to me,
You’re everywhere, like you’re supposed to be

Don’t care what I miss out on, you’re worthy of the time,
I spend every waken hour with you, knowing that you’re mine
So I don’t know what to do with myself, I’m just so into you,
You really make me happy, more than anyone else can do

It started so fast, a smile and I just fell,
Who’d have known you’d make me feel so well?
A smile and a question, that’s all you had to do,
And suddenly I was head over heels for you
You’re all I need, you’re everything to me
You’re everywhere, like you’re supposed to be

It started so fast, a smile and I just fell,
Who’d have known you’d make me feel so well?
A smile and a question, that’s all you had to do,
And suddenly I was head over heels for you
You’re all I need, you’re everything to me,
You’re everywhere, like you’re supposed to be

It's a Game.

It’s like a stupid game, a game for two,
Meant for people like me and you
Throw the dice, your chance is here,
Take it or leave it, it’s never played fair

Move your marker, step one, two, three,
Question to answer: “will it be me?”
One step forward or one step back?
This game might bring you something you lack

It’s the game called love, that’s what they say,
Move forward or backward, there’s only one way
A game meant for two, more will be too hard,
If you play it right you’ll get your award
Complicated rules that none can understand,
A game moving further as you take someone’s hand
Throw the dice and get closer to the phone,
Play it right or you’ll end up all alone

Put in jail, waiting to be free,
A matching pair of dice might rescue thee
But how do you know if it’s luck or if it’s right?
Do the dice tell you what’s worth a fight?

Listen to your heart and you’re out of the game,
Standing there wishing thing’s would be the same
A question card might answer a thing or two,
But if you’re out of the game, who picks a card for you?

It’s the game called love, that’s what they say,
Move forward or backward, there’s only one way
A game meant for two, more will be too hard,
If you play it right you’ll get your award
Complicated rules that none can understand,
A game moving further as you take someone’s hand
Throw the dice and get closer to the phone,
Play it right or you’ll end up all alone

Aren’t you tired of playing along?
Couldn’t our love be a beautiful song?
Stop the game and find what’s real,
With music our feelings would reveal

It’s the game called love, that’s what they say,
Move forward or backward, there’s only one way
A game meant for two, more will be too hard,
If you play it right you’ll get your award
Complicated rules that none can understand,
A game moving further as you take someone’s hand
Throw the dice and get closer to the phone,
Play it right or you’ll end up all alone

It’s the game called love, that’s what they say,
Move forward or backward, there’s only one way
A game meant for two, more will be too hard,
If you play it right you’ll get your award
Complicated rules that none can understand,
A game moving further as you take someone’s hand
Throw the dice and get closer to the phone,
Play it right or you’ll end up all alone
