Jimmy Skoog - Wild Things Lyrics
Verse 1 (Jimmy Skoog):Papa was a rolling stone'Cause his fears would keep him awake and chase him coast to coastAll the while my mama just smiled and taught us to hold our ownBut late at night I could hear her crying, she was so aloneShe was so alone and I did not know anything but thisWasn't even pissed when he finally returnedWe all had dinner then we went into our roomsAnd they set our whole world on fire, let it burnThought we never heard, yeah - we heardAll the mean words, how it got worseBullied at school but I never said a wordI always wanted them to solve their shit firstDidn't really have no choice so I just swallowed my disappointmentHollow and distant from the rest, just following distant voicesToo restless to enjoy it, running for the hills trying to fill that voidAnd the truth is I don't really care 'cause I'd do anything just to killThat noiseOf the two of them fighting, staying in my room just writingSaying to myself when I grow up I don't want to be like themThe world's so big and frightening'sWhat they want you to believe, but in order to be me I've got to leaveBefore the night ends...Chorus (Peter Krafft):I keep chasing that sunriseTo get away just for one nightFar, where the wild things areI'm not afraid of the dark, no fear at allI'm not even scared we're worlds apartI know you will find me where the wild things are...Verse 2 (Jimmy Skoog):Woke up from a dream, felt the wind of change blowingEyes wide open as my pond turned to an oceanI set sail for greatness, wouldn't slow down for no oneThough they tried to hold me down, I never stopped just kept goingYeah, I just kept going, so devoted to the thought of becoming so much moreThan the man I was so I just kept pushing for those golden shoresLike I always knew that I would meet somebody that would climb aboardThat would have my heart and show me through the storm to the place whereThe lions roarSomeone who will only love the things worth fighting forSomeone who will only live for the things worth dying forAnd that girl will have my kidsAnd I'll treat 'em all like royalty, every night I'll tell 'em this(I-I'll tell 'em...)Bridge (in Swedish - translation at the bottom):Jag står här vid er sida, lovar att stanna kvarJag älskar er mer än livet och ger er vart andetag jag tarSå tvivla ej, mina kära, det är ingen faraFör om jag nånsin faller så ses vi I Nangijala...Chorus (Peter Krafft):I keep chasing that sunriseTo get away just for one nightFar, where the wild things areDirect translation of the bridge:I'm standing by your side, I promise I'll never leaveI love you more than life itself and I'll give every breath I'll takeSo have no fears, my loved ones, don't you worry'Cause if I ever fall I'll see you in Nangijala...
