Irrallaan [English translation]
Irrallaan [English translation]
I can feel the weight of the world on my neck
who dares to be different
Put your hand up and scream it out loud
So they wont see us as a grey mass
I can feel the weight of the world on my neck
who dares to be different
Put your hand up and scream it out loud
Scream it loud
What is expected from you and who expects
Who do you give the power to lift you up and drop you down
When nothing is sure here except for death
And treasures scattered along the way
It would always be better to know than to guess
But these routines pet me in the wrong way
It's difficult to study if it doesn't interest you
Difficult to smile if nothing excites you
We aim to receive acknowledgment
A ten or a five it's the same pattern
On seventh grade I remember someone saying
That now we should start choosing a career
I'm twelve are you being serious,
let me play like the kids in my age
Little girls with make up like their mothers
And both have the same trouble.
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
I can't stand in one place
What if I'm not on that way, and If I don't
walk in the direction
that I'm being expected to.
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
It's easy to be free/loose
But it was worth going to school
on the top of my shelf you can find my student cap
To me it's just that and only that, a cap.
If it only would have been a student jacket,
because with that you could have atleast made it through here
Now you just get to shiver with the cap on your head
It doesn't fit your grasp, You can't get to express yourself
Living life to the fullest doesn't mean you have to live it fast
Get everything you want out of life but in what way, wild and free,
In here we are just humans.
Few dare to do what their heart says
Run away too scared to grab a hold
Apparently I should get out of this rat race
But at times even the stray wants to get away from the rain.
Life, ain't nothing more, but I only have one here to lose
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
I can't stand in one place
What if I'm not on that way, and If I don't
walk in the direction
that I'm being expected to.
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
It's easy to be free
4 x Free
I look at my friends around me, many already with kids,
More born every day and some even have two.
Some try and some fail here,
so that you try to get rid of it as quickly as you can.
A child is a gift not a self-right,
still abortion is more like a rule than an exception
It makes me wonder of myself in that situation
Would I dance of joy or get depressed
Life through your fingers like water,
Here I should start to think about pension
I also want a family and a wife in my arms,
but from many angles it looks like the end of the world
Give me time don't rush me
You have to live youth you have to experience it
Crawl and then walk
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
I can't stand in one place
What if I'm not on that way, and If I don't
walk in the direction
that I'm being expected to.
What if I'm not certain just yet,
ready to calm down
It's easy to be free
4 x Free
