The Lone Deranger

(album: Måsstaden - 2011)

Go ahead and blame me
I keep my head as high as I can
But let these words answer for what I have done
May your judgment not be too heavy upon me

Of course I didn't know back then
This is not the result that I hoped for
The general misery I have brought upon you
I did not wish for anything to happen
Today, let's look far away from this
Tonight no buildings will collapse
And I know this too shall pass

Grasp your fear with both your hands, you knew that this time would come
Write your worries in the sand, you knew that this time would come
And I will turn my back on you, just like I always do
Just like I've always done

We took us through the blood and sand with bloody teeth
Beaten and tired we share what's lost
Now the moment's over
Now that everyone has seen through my lies I cannot possibly stay
I have to leave
Never has a distance seemed so difficult to undertake
I tear my camp down, brick by brick, the time has come
I have been here before
Now I'm back to square one
When all these feelings had just begun

Carelessly I wasted my chance, all for the sake of revenge
The taste of sickness cannot be described, it slowly wears me down
There are some things inexpressible to those that I leave behind
Determination leads my way

There are some things better left unsaid to those that have never seen this place

You stand your guard and stay behind
I face the heat alone
I take a last look and say farewell
You may never see me again
