1. Born to be (Words/Music: Eriksson/Lindholm)
when I was young I used to live outta nowhere
That was the place I called my home
But I felt alone there
and the winters got cold there
So I told my father I would go
So he took my hand and said to me
Oh son
Now listen up carefully
Always go on
never back down
Honor your mama
Be proud of yourself
Be kind to your woman your sisters and me
Fight for your brothers and the right to be free
That’s where you belong
and what your were born to be
When I grew older I would dig for my roots but
All of the things I loved were gone
That’s when I knew what I had left behind
The search for the answers that I couldn’t find
And through the night
I heard his voice
Wake up boy you have a choice
Always go on
never back down
Honor your mama
Be proud of yourself
Be kind to your woman your sisters and me
Fight for your brothers and the right to be free
That’s where you belong
and what your were born to be
Always go on
never back down
Honor your mama
Be proud of yourself
Be kind to your woman your sisters and me
Fight for your brothers and the right to be free
Always go on
never back down
Honor your mama
Be proud of yourself
Be kind to your woman your sisters and me
Fight for your brothers and the right to be free
That’s where you belong
and what your were born to be
4. Still here we are (Words/Music: Anders Norman)
The say the fight is over
there’s nothing left to do
Im sitting in the darkness
with the memories of you
I cherish all the moments
All the things that we´ve been through
The times with all the laughter
and the moments we were true
Im sitting here and waiting
waiting here for you
I’m waiting here for someone
To say everything is good
Still here we are
at the end of the walk
we speak in silence
when the words have all run out
Still here we are
when the fire has gone out
I wish that I could hold you
wherever you are
All that really matters
you were here for just a while
But I’ve gotten to know you
and felt your love
Im sitting here and waiting
waiting here for you
I’m waiting here for someone
To Say everything is good
Still here we are
at the end of the walk
we speak in silence
when the words have all run out
Still here we are
when the fire has gone out
I wish that I could hold you
wherever you are
And now the fight is over
there’s nothing left to do
Im sitting in the darkness
with the memories of you
Im sitting here and waiting
waiting here for you
And I’m waiting here for someone
To say everything is good
7. Remember the children Words/Music: Anders Norman)
a long forgotten future
a hope that never came
You’re waiting by the fire
in the heavy pouring rain
a sleepless nights in darkness
a fire without flame
whispers in the morning
reminds you of the pain
reminds you of the moment
when you lied there on the ground
reminds you of the fearfulness
in your body when the bombs came down
remember all the children
remember all their names
remember all their innocence
when the winners call their game
she sees them in the moonlight
she hears them in the clouds
she fears them in the silence
she face them when they come
it reminds her of the moment
when she lied lie there on the ground
reminds her of the fearfulness
in her body when the bombs came down
remember all the children
remember all their names
remember all their innocence
when the winners call their game
solo
remember all the children
remember all their names
remember all their innocence
when the winners call their game
2. Dreams and guitars (Words/Music: Norman/Strider/Ericsson)
Josie's driving with the sun in the mirror
Lights her battered face
She's leaving with a bag in the backseat
across the interstate
She pulls into a Philips station
for cigarettes and gas
wears her hat with a pink carnation
she's never going back
She's got her dreams and her guitar
and she can thank her lucky stars
she found the strength to leave him
all the years of fist and rage
all the fear that made her stay
she's riding out to freedom
She's following the lines on the highway
to a better place
her life has like a dead end station
a shut door in the face
and she tried and she tried
and she tried yeah
to turn the other cheek
now she's out there on her own to find
the one she used to be
She's got her dreams and her guitar
and she can thank her lucky stars
she found the strength to leave him
all the years of fist and rage
all the fear that made her stay
she's riding out to freedom
All the stars and constellations
all the signs are there
high time for a celebration
It’s her freedom day
She's got her dreams and her guitar
and she can thank her lucky stars
she found the strength to leave him
all the years of fist and rage
all the fear that made her stay
she's riding out to freedom
5. Can't get enough Lyrics: Norman: Music: Ericsson
I’m in the old part of town
just walking around
To see if things have really changed somehow
Since we were kids there in the summer sun
I pass the old Highschool
These walls could tell, a story or two
reminiscing bout the days of youth
when we were waking up the neighborhood
and I’m down on the beach where
we all were getting our share
oh those summer nights,
when we couldn’t get enough of our lives
Back When time stood still
We were the innocent
There were no regrets
We just couldn’t get enough of our lives
Well I’m walking pass the pubs downtown
Yeah, Those bars we used to hang around
With those local bands playing all night long
just a look through the key hole and they’re gone
I guess times will always change
Just like the kids out there on the streets
Now One of them is mine
and He can’t get enough of his life
and he’s down on the beach where
They’re all getting their share
oh those summer nights,
when you can’t get enough of your life
Now When time stands still
They are the innocent
There are no regrets
They just can’t get enough of their lives
8. These are the times Words/Music: Anders Norman)
In a story with no end
theres a man without a home
there is light but theres no sun
theres a child without a mum
theres a bird without its wings
theres a soldier with no gun
and a farmer trying to grow his fields
plants his seeds with his own hands
he’s got his brother
to bring the water
in his arms
These are the times
theres a preacher without faith
a teacher without a school
theres a singer without voice
a politician without dreams
a banker with no gold
and theres a heaven with no stars
and there’s a doctor trying to heal the wounds
stops the blood with his own hands
hes got his brother
to bring a shelter
in his arms
and there are times when we don't wanna see
that it's all real
and we never learn from the past
as we sell our dreams
and if somebody told you before
never to open the door
for the people who’s marching for war
these are the times
3. Lifelines (Words/Music: Anders Norman)
she’s walking down a lonely road
with a heart that is carried with a heavy load
She’s following the well known tracks
like all the others, that never came back
She’s working on a master plan
She got the answer right there, in her hand
just a little paper and a pen
She can change the world,
and add some colors again
maybe she’s lost, maybe she’s gone
maybe she’ll be knocking on your door
there’s a painting on your wall
I can read the Lifelines
in your hands
I read the lifetime
that you have
I can see the angels
I can see the stars
I can see the loneliness in your heart
I can see your Lifelines, my friend
there are shadows moving on a wall
she can see the danger,
she can hear them call
Kitty doesn't care for them at all
maybe they´re lost, maybe they´re gone
maybe they´ll be knocking on your door
but there’s a painting on your wall
I can read the Lifelines
in your hands
I read the lifetime
that you have
I can see the angels
I can see the stars
I can see the loneliness in your heart
I can see your Lifelines, my friend
I can see your Lifelines, my friend
she’s just a little lonely girl
with a heavy heart in a crazy world
maybe she’s lost, maybe she’s gone
maybe she’ll be knocking on your door
there’s a painting on your wall
I can read the Lifelines
in your hands
I read the lifetime
that you have
I can see the angels
I can see the stars
I can see the loneliness in your heart
I can see your Lifelines, my friend
I can see your Lifelines, my friend
6. Runaway (Words/Music: Anders Norman)
I tried to run away
and I wanna come home
Now I’m down by the water,
and I’m cold and Im all alone
I tried to run away
but I didn’t last long
I fell into the river
but I guess didn't drown
So much I had to say
But you didn’t listen
you´re waiting by the phone
worry that am gone, and now Im missin’
I didn’t want to leave,
and just go missin’
make you understand,
That I had other plans and made my decision
I don’t wanna lose,
all we had
the promises we made each other
and the life we shared
I don’t wanna feel, lost inside
just give me a reason to love
when you run and hide
so turn yourself around
bring your heart to mine
we’ll get the smouldering ashes
to a burning fire
