Lyrics
Jag sprang i regn, längs vägar utan slut
Det var natt och tystnaden skrek
Och bland skuggorna
Hördes steg och snabba andetag
I från någon som var dold för min blick
Amuletten som du hängde runt min hals
Som skulle ge mig tur, kom från en okänd hand
Eller hur…
Men om du var jag
Hade du då ändå trott
Att vi styr allt som sker med egna val?
Ja, om du var jag
Hade du då fortsatt gå
Fasten tiden runnit ut
Fasten allt ditt hopp var slut
Om Gud var man och gick bland alla oss
Tror du han, känt ensamhet då?
Såg han Djävulen
Som onskefull och skrämmande
Eller någon som nådde hans blick?
Om Gud var jag
Hade han då ändå trott
Att vi styr allt som sker med egna val?
Ja, om Gud var jag
Hade han då fortsatt gå
Fasten tiden runnit ut
Fasten allt hans hopp var slut
Hade du, hade jag, hade Gud fått
Hade någon av oss fått en likvärdig chans
Hade Gud gjort
Så som jag gjort
Eller gått en väg någon helt annan stans
Ja, om Gud var jag
Hade han då ändå trott
Att vi styr allt som sker med egna val?
Ja, om Gud var jag
Hade han då fortsatt gå
Fasten tiden runnit ut
Fasten allt hans hopp var slut
Lyrics translation
I ran in rain, along roads without end
It was night and the silence screamed
And among the shadows
Were heard steps and quick breaths
I from someone who was hidden from my gaze
The amulet that you hung around my neck
That would bring me luck, came from an unknown hand
Right…
But if you were me
Would you have thought
That we control everything that happens with our own choices?
Yeah, if you were me
Would you have kept going
The fast time has run out
The fast all your hope was over
If God was man and went among all of us
Do you think he felt lonely?
Did he see The Devil
As evil and scary
Or someone who reached his gaze?
If God was me
Would he have believed
That we control everything that happens with our own choices?
Yes, if God was me
He continued to walk
The fast time has run out
All his hopes were over
If you had, I would, God would have had
Would any of us have had an equal chance
Had God done
The way I've done it
Or gone one way some other place
Yes, if God was me
Would he have believed
That we control everything that happens with our own choices?
Yes, if God was me
He continued to walk
The fast time has run out
All his hopes were over
