Lyrics
De gamle stoffer
Virker ikke mere
Så er det nu vi stopper
Eller tar nogle flere
Lægger det bag os
Tar det hele forfra
Er det her en slags mantra
Man ikke bør gentage?
Den rus sku vi ha
Livet var en chance
Som vi mente man sku ta
Men hvilken vej skal man ta
Den ene peger fremad
Den anden går tilbage
Vi læser avisen
Når vi vil informeres
Ser skriften på væggen
Når vi vil vide mere
Hører ure der tikker
Hører hjerter der banker
Før var vi så sikre
Vi kom på andre tanker
Den rus sku vi ha
Livet var en chance
Som vi mente man sku ta
Men hvilken vej skal man ta
Den ene peger fremad
Den anden går tilbage
Lyrics translation
The old drugs
Doesn't work anymore
Here we go
Or take some more
Put it behind us
Takes it all over again
Is this some kind of mantra
One should not repeat?
That rus we should have
Life was a chance
As we were supposed to
But which way to go
One points forward
The second goes back
We read the newspaper
When we want to be informed
See the writing on the wall
When we want to know more
Hearing clocks ticking
Hear hearts beating
We used to be so sure
We changed our minds
That rus we should have
Life was a chance
As we were supposed to
But which way to go
One points forward
The second goes back
