Tracks



01. My Twin

Music by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Lyrics by Jonas Renkse
The neck & then the chain
The head is hung in shame
I thought that you had grown
That you would carry on
But now that I have gone
What else has been withdrawn

You used to be like my twin
& all that's been
Was it all for nothing
Are you strong when you're with him
The one who's placed you above us all

I think of love
I let it pass
It feels like fire
But it won't last

What is it coming to
I'm unwilling to go on
You have lost
No one has won

02. My Twin (Opium Dub)

Music by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Lyrics by Jonas Renkse
The neck & then the chain
The head is hung in shame
I thought that you had grown
That you would carry on
But now that I have gone
What else has been withdrawn

You used to be like my twin
& all that's been
Was it all for nothing
Are you strong when you're with him
The one who's placed you above us all

I think of love
I let it pass
It feels like fire
But it won't last

What is it coming to
I'm unwilling to go on
You have lost
No one has won

03. Displaced

Music by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Lyrics by Jonas Renkse
Do you have water in your car
I might get thirsty along the way
Are you sure it isn't very far
Are we getting there today
And is it hard
And complicated

You displace me
Drive me there
Let me sleep
We are coming to an end here see
Drive me there
I'm meant to be deceived
We are coming to an end here see

Reaching for a sentence in my mouth
Well hidden under my tongue
I know what things are all about
I made it so easy for you when you came
For your safety

You displace me
Drive me there
Let me sleep
We are coming to an end here see
Drive me there
I'm meant to be deceived
We are coming to an end here see

04. Dissolving Bonds

Music by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Lyrics by Anders Nyström
And here you are
So much time did you waste from times before
So shut down your sky
Bow down, lights out and die
And now you go
The cold chill cracks, a positive self-detach
Inanimate heart
Hurrying, racing forward
A destined goodbye

Bells rang out the day of your worst fear
Obscure graduation day
Left you but with memories to bear
Lost in hopelessness
Seclusion cut you just as deep as knives
Dissolving the bonds
Time was set to fade away your lives

You said you would always give you love
You said you would always be caring
You said you would never abandon
You said you would
