Somewhere in Stockholm Songtext

von Avicii

That's me right there on the corner, listening to wu in my Walkman
Neon lights hit the water, reflecting the city i'm lost in
That's me right there on the corner, I one day would be leaving
For a dream that I didn't have, that i'd one day would believe in
Strange how the same place, I ran from's the same place
I think of whenever the chance comes

It's inevitable cause wherever I go
I hear echoes of a thousand screams
As I lay me down to sleep
There's a black hole deep inside of me
Reminding me
That I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm

I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
I'm from a place where we never, openly show our emotions
We drown our sorrows in bottomless bottles
And leave them to float in the ocean
I'm from a place where we never, seperate people from people
Some generalize, but in general I still believe that we are treated as equals
My father, my mother, my sister, my brother, my friends and my family's there
My hope, and my money, my innocence in a sense, almost lost everything here

Right where I was founded, is right where i'll be found dead
These streets are my backbone, until I get back home
I hear echoes of a thousand screams
As I lay me down to sleep
There's a black hole deep inside of me
Reminding me

That I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
I'm not alone, I am the fire that burns
Not in the city, but out in the burbs
A river that's dying of thirst I am a reverend
Lying in church, a crack in the pattern

A miracle waiting to happen
A promise that never was kept
One of those moments

You'll never forget
I am that feeling inside, that one we all know
But can't really describe
I am the blood spill, but I'm in love still
Somewhere in Stockholm, but I'm not alone
Don't have to get, by on my own
I'm finally home
Hemma i Stockholm
Där jag hör hemma
I hear echoes of a thousand screams
As I lay me down to sleep
There's a black hole deep inside of me
Reminding me
That I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
