Kent - Egoist Lyrics Translation

Album: Egoist Single
Lyrics: Joakim Berg
Music: Joakim Berg


The April sky, innocently red
The wind carries a smell of smoke
Around Sweden glow the book burnings

In the main square burns a cross
Now hatred is ok if it is targeted in the right direction
Nothing hits as hard as left wing violence
We will never be like you

There are those who say that love is so simple
Either you have it or you do not

And suddenly you stand there deserted in the rain
One foot in the grave among lilacs and students

We will live, live life
We are the drive, we have the drive
We will live, live life
We take everything, yes, everything for granted

You are sugar, curiosity
I am strong black coffee, ambitions and rain
A monotone verse needs a strong chorus

Our motto was for long "take no shit"
But you came up with one better
"Be a little bit kinder than you have to be"
We will never be like you

There are those who say that love is so simple
Either you have it or you do not

And suddenly you stand there deserted in the rain
One foot in the grave among lilacs and students

We will live, live life
We are the drive, we have the drive
We will live, live life
We take everything, yes, everything for granted

Prepare a way for a new terrorism
Prepare a way for a new Egoism
Prepare a way for a new terrorism
Prepare a way for Ego, Ego, the Egoism

We will live, live life
We are the drive, we have the drive
We will live, live life
We take everything, yes, everything for granted

We will never be like you
We will never be like you
We will never be like you
