about

This song is not about who you think.

lyrics

In a month or so you're coming back
you'll arrive in Oslo and we'll shout your name
in the car we'll play your favourite track
and hopefully everything will be the same

Every silent weekend will wash away
every mention of it will be kept at bay
no 4 AMs no lonely tears
these doubts will be nothing but useless fears

You will reunite our group of friends
we'll be back together and you will tie the ends
they'll remember me and all we used to be
and you will all pick me up from this cold dark sea

Oh how time flies
when you leave me alone
Oh how time flies
when you leave me alone

You'll talk to me
like before
when he comes home

All of us here
together
it will melt your heart of stone

I can't take
another year
of being on my own

Oh how time flies
when you leave me alone

Please promise me things will be fine
whisper in my ear, just give me a sign
that this grey neutral weather will come to an end
and once again you will be
my best friend

Oh how time flies
when you leave me alone
Oh how time flies
when you leave me alone

Text me
you're only person
who ever really
knew me

You keep telling me that
you're just like you used to be
but oh my god, those words
give no comfort at all

I opened up to you
I told you all my troubles
but all you would do
was give me all this empty space
I couldn' cut through

got swallowed whole
when you stopped
answering the phone

Principal Sinner Oppland, Norway

Imagine if penguins could fly though - how weird would that be? I mean, they're about the size of a human child, right? Do you think parents would get a mini heart attack every time they saw the silhouette of a penguin flying above them, afraid that it might be their child that somehow had aquired the power of flight? I know I would freak out. Yeah. It's for the best that penguins can't fly. ... more
