Nдr jag tдnker efter sе (fцr att vi ville)
Ha det lite bдttre sе (ringde nеgon 112, yeah)
Vem ringde 112? [x2]
Dе fick vi springa nerfцr gatorna,
Nu springer jag aldrig jag ringer och ser ifall de har nеn taxi, yeah
Allting var sе enkelt dеTjejen jag gillade gillade killar som var дldre dе
Allting var sе enkelt dе
Brorsans gamla klдder pе

Allting var sе enkelt dе
Som hon, du vet vad hette hon
Som jдmt sa sцta saker till mig som "Hцrredu hеll kдften" е
Allting var sе enkelt dе
Klockan var typ fem I tvе
Hon la armen runt mig och frеgade om jag hдnger pе, yeah
Och jag sa lеt mig tдnka efter och
Hajade inte att jag sumpat henne fцr'ns efterеt

Ref. x2
The lyrics to "112" by Alexis Weak express a longing for a simpler and easier time, perhaps during the singer's youth. The opening lines suggest that things were once "so simple" and easy, but now things have changed. The mention of someone calling 112 (the emergency services number in Sweden) suggests that something has gone wrong or there has been some kind of crisis. The line "Nu springer jag aldrig jag ringer och ser ifall de har nån taxi" suggests that the singer is no longer as carefree as before, and is now more cautious.
The rest of the song continues to reflect on the past, with reminiscences of the singer's crush, their brother's clothes, and hanging out with friends. The chorus reinforces the idea that everything was once easy, but now things are more complicated. The singer suggests that they used to lie about where they were from and had to be careful with money, but now they have more cash and can be more honest. The song ends with a note of uncertainty, as the singer acknowledges that maybe everything wasn't so simple after all.
