Piken Med Sviket
Gjengen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Eg kommer hjem på morgenen og kjenner at det fortsatt brenner
Denne byen -eg fikser ikkje det, bare fiks meg opp -ja, fikser du det
Ondt som faen men det hører vel med, kjører deg opp for å kjøre meg ned
Så la kroppene bli kald
og ta oss ut av våre skall
Dette e for godt, for godt til å være sant
piken med sviket og gutten som aldri får nok
La de si ka de vil, de vet ingenting om oss
Trenger min medisin, piken med Quetiapin
Vi med vår dramatikk, du gir med småestikk
som e større enn alt og alle noen gang trodde eg treengte
Og enten henger eg med deg eller henger eg meg med løkken du lærte
når du bærte meg gjennom
det svarteste vannet her i byen
Dette e for godt, for godt til å være sant
Se her hele verden, se kem eg fant
piken med sviket og gutten som aldri får nok
La de si ka de vil, de vet ingenting om oss
Du, du du, du du du du, du du, du du, du du du du
Knuser du speilet, så setter eg seilet
og med ett lite hopp så kan vi en gang for alle leve for alltid
Knuser du speilet, så setter eg seilet
og med ett lite hopp så kan skal eg, en gang for alle leve for alltid
In the song "Piken Med Sviket" by gjengen, the lyrics delve into themes of emotional turmoil, self-destruction, and a tumultuous relationship. The singer expresses a sense of detachment and apathy towards caring for themselves any longer. The imagery of coming home in the morning and feeling the lingering flames suggest unresolved issues and emotional scars that continue to burn within. The city they inhabit seems to be overwhelming and beyond their ability to handle alone, as they request to be fixed up by another. Despite the pain they endure, there is a recognition that it comes with the territory, a cycle of hurting each other in an attempt to bolster themselves.
The chorus of the song reflects on the idea that the situation they find themselves in is almost too good to be true, possibly in a sarcastic or cynical tone. The singer introduces the characters of "piken med sviket" (the girl with the betrayal) and "gutten som aldri får nok" (the boy who never gets enough), hinting at a toxic and addictive dynamic between them. The defiance against others' perceptions and judgments highlights a rebellious attitude and a sense of defiance in the face of societal expectations.
The mention of "piken med Quetiapin" alludes to a specific medication, suggesting a reliance on substances to cope with the drama and chaos in their lives. The dynamic between the singer and their counterpart is painted as intense, with the smallest gestures carrying more weight than anyone could have imagined. The choice between following the other person or succumbing to the darkness they carry with them reflects a struggle for identity and agency amidst difficult circumstances in the city.
The final verses of the song convey a sense of determination and recklessness in the face of adversity. The act of shattering a mirror symbolizes a break from self-destructive patterns, with the idea of setting sail suggesting a new beginning and the possibility of eternal life together. The repetition of "du du du" reinforces a sense of interconnectedness and shared experience between the characters, while the resolution to live forever in a leap of faith signifies a desire for lasting connection and transformation.
