En blyg viol
Johan Airijoki Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
För blyga violer dom reste sig upp
Pannan mot solen dom reste sig upp
Det lätt att det kokar det blir så med lock
Jag öppnade käften jag ställde mig upp
Pannan mot solen dom reste sig upp
Och alla utvägar dom pekade på
Är inget för mig så vitt jag förstår
Jag gräver en tunnel ett slukande hål
Det blir vad det blir och det går som det går
Jag sitter i skolan jag tänker på rokk
The lyrics to Johan Airijoki's song En blyg viol describe the feeling of being an outcast and wanting to break free from that label. The singer is sitting in class, feeling bored and uninterested in what is being taught, and instead, his mind wanders to the world of rock and roll that he longs to be a part of. The metaphor of the "blyga violer" or "shy violets" represents those who are introverted and afraid to stand out. However, in the song, these shy violets metaphorically rise up and face the sun, breaking out of their shell and becoming something new.
The singer then expresses the frustration of feeling trapped, like something is boiling inside him with no escape. He decides to take action, standing up and opening his mouth to speak his mind, just like the shy violets rising up. The 'outlet' offered to him is not enough, so he chooses to dig underground, graving a tunnel and taking control of his own fate, regardless of where it may lead him.
Overall, the song En blyg viol is a call to action for those who feel trapped and want to break out of their shell, whether that be in the world of rock and roll or in their personal lives. It encourages people to take risks and make their own opportunities, even if it means going against the expectations of others.

Det lätt att det kokar det blir så med lock
Jag öppnade käften jag ställde mig upp
It's easy to get heated and frustrated, but I spoke up and stood firm.

Det blir vad det blir och det går som det går
The solutions offered didn't work for me, so I'm digging my own path, taking risks and seeing where it leads.
