Yli [English translation]

How have you been

Suppose nothing gets done without some wounds

Who hasn’t once had had it a bit rough

Alright is the best one can get

What’s the last thing that you got drunk on?

What’s the last thing you gave up on?

It’s as if waking just as you’re about to hit the ground

Only to really hit the ground.

Happily a happy ending

Might be sometimes possible even

Not all memories get reminisced

Only the driest loves immortalized

Is this how the ships get abandoned?

Only when the pool is empty shall we dive in

So difficult to accept

That even a bad reason is a good enough reason

I’m just about, will you get,

Are you already, over it?

I’m just about, are you already,

Will you get, over it?

I’m just about, will you get,

Are you already, over it?

I’m just about, are you already,

Will you get, over it?

How successful must one be

In order to lose with glee?

Death is a luxury

One which I can’t afford missing out on.

I try to be fine

But fine isn’t fine with me

It’s not you who I’m talking about

When I talk about you I talk about myself with me.

Try and stay surprised

So nothing shall come as too much of a surprise

With getting over with there is the overwhelming challenge

Of getting somewhere

Which one is the pile that I should try stay on?

Guess I never had the skills for that

No feeling is eternal

Which is why a goodbye is always a bit questionable

Everything is certain

I mean everything is perhaps

The narrative tricks you

Out of the very good stories the best ones consist of lies,

Why ever live so cautiously

When there is an uncountable number of the days that are counted

Show up at my wedding without an invite

And keep up that same energy until it comes to a funeral

Live more, remember less,

Something about you made me a little less,

And I’m just about over you

But give me just a couple more songs,

How have you been?

I mean how have you been

I thought about you today

Not fondly or for long but you were there nonetheless

I’m just about, will you get,

Are you already, over it?

I’m just about, are you already,

Will you get, over it?

I’m just about, will you get,

Are you already, over it?

I’m just about, are you already,

Will you get, over it?
