There’s darkness in my house I am afraid of it So I turn on the lights But they’re just flickering fffflickering... There’s darkness in my house Thats just the way it is I am giving up I am giving in I am giving in... I am giving up I am giving in
2.	Fake 01:48	lyrics	buy track
Fake sounds from a fake past Faking I can play right, faking i can play tight Hope things will be alright Knowing they just might not Things might start to crumble Fall apart in shambles Will have to pick em up …and put them together Fake skills from my real hands Almost seems like magic Concealing what is tragic Making it seem alright Knowing that it is not Something to aspire Being such a liar Believing, achieving: concealing, deceiving
3.	Eros 01:05	lyrics	buy track
The aim is not set on me I wanna find love but I won’t No use in trying the door is shut There’s no denying I’ve run out of luck this time Its time to give up I won’t get struck Or maybe I will But you won’t Maybe I will By you won’t

5.	Poly 02:43	lyrics	buy track
He'll replace me Babe you know it's true It was a fun thing At least for you It's threatening my existence Anxiety Avoided questions I'll be lonely Babe you know it's true I'll be hurting Feeling like a fool He's threatening my position No promises Just insecurities You'll be happy I'll be miserable You willl leave me Babe, you know it's true It thretened my position My anxiety was called for

Hey girl! The shit you been trough No one should have to No one should have to Hey girl! I know you tried And then you cried Rinse and repeat Hey girl!

I wish you didn’t have to carry it I’m so sorry you feel alone in it
7.	Anne 01:06	lyrics	buy track
I know you’ve been through shit I know you’ve been through hell I hope you’ll be alright I hope things end up well But this is not the way To treat your fellow peps No this is not the way To treat your fellow peps I know things have been hard I wish they had been swell I know you’ve been through shit I know you’ve been through hell But this is not the way To treat your fellow peps No this is not the way To treat your fellow peps No this is not the way To treat your fellow peps No this is not the way Taking everything for keeps
8.	June 02:21	lyrics	buy track
Winter has passed but I'm not yet on my feet Troubles amassed, never got a chance to breathe I see the sun Does it mean that there's a chance for me to feel glee? Then I remember June You said we were trough I remember June So much time has passed I'm supposed to be OK Need appreciation Need someone to look my way Need the sun to warm me up but the sky keeps turning grey As everyone looks away Then I remember June You said we were trough I remember June What was I to do Then I remember June You said we were trough What was I to do Guess I already knew
9.	No one knows 02:56	lyrics	buy track
No one cares No one knows There are ebbs And there are flows It's all so fragile But it doesn't show I keep walking one my toes No one cares, no one knows
10.	Same 03:03	lyrics	buy track
My past has changed Yet I'm still the same I wear the same clothes I have the same name I still like the woods I can't find my place My past has changed But I'm still the same I wanna be adored But no one knows my name I still like the woods I can't find my place My past has changed I am still the same I was given roots but it was to late I was given roots but it was to late...
11.	Used 02:27	lyrics	buy track
What used to be Made me feel used Now It's all gone And I still feel used All used up Ain't nothing much Anymore I really miss The sense of being used Now I'm all alone Used to be used All used up Ain't nothing much Anymore Used to be used Not anymore But it doesn't help When you're on you're on your own What used to be Made me feel used
12.	Calm 01:30	lyrics	buy track
It is calm Way too calm I'm all worn out Aching heart
13.	Look 03:57	lyrics	buy track
I feel a look A look on me Is it good Or is it...mean The way you look Look at me You look so good And i look so...cheap The way you look… I see this look A gaze from above You're looking down And i feel so...low Your’e looking down And i feel so low The look pins me down It’s got me in a hold I wanna run But don’t know where to go I see you look

15.	Life 05:18	lyrics	buy track
I'm sure not the worst off but... Life has not been kind Would like to shut it up Eternal void Maybe some peace of mind I'm sure not the worst off but... Life has been unkind Would like to end it all eternal void Maybe some peace of mind

about

Whenever I share my music with the few friends I trust enough to share it with it seems like they don't like the same songs I do. So this is my way of highlighting these songs. Making the compilation that nobody wanted.

Among the "hits" you can find songs like Fake that is about being shit at playing music while people in your thight net of friends for some reason believe that you are more skilled than you yourself know that you are.
Eros, my first song incorporating lapsteel.
Girl which I wrote as a sort of hommage to my sister on international womans day. A song she probably would think sounded like crap if I ever played it to her.
Anne about being in a fight with a relative that is mean but at the same time empathizing with the hardships she have been trough that might have influenced how she behaves.
Same, which is a song about identity and wanting to belong, beeing given roots of some sort that might explain some personal traits but at the same time being too far removed and feeling you can't claim them. The title refers to the feeling that nothing has changed but also to the swedish word for a sami person.

This is released on International workers day. If you see this on this perticular day: Go out on the streets!
