Erlend Oye

And so Im back and I am stuck here in the same room.
A thorough shuffle to the mail my first excuse
not to immediately face the days agenda.
Some very awkward words I need be telling you
of a feeling that in motion through Ive carried
for it to be worn off upon return
that grew inside me like a credit taken
in a currency I could no longer earn.
No better way,
no other time,
no other call,
no better line,
as soon as now, within your room
it cant go on,
Im not in love with you.
My mouth has got a funny taste of metal,
a pencil lines been drawn upon my face.
Weight has come to hang around my shoulders
for the knowledge of a doubt I cant erase.
Hey boy you never finish what youve started
says the man I wanna be who I am not
who will sacrifice his part as easy lover
to never be the one who holds and drops
