600 mil längs taggtråd
Jag kastar tärning med Djävulen
Mitt liv blev bara en skamfläck i historien
men den är min och jag vill slösa den på dig

Jag såg alla sorters änglar
Hörde mamma snyftande be
Jag såg gamar cirkulera

Kände Guds hand sträckas ner
men jag ville inte förstå

Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
till att vilja ha mig

600 mil längs taggtråd
Jag kastar stenar mot himlen
Min kropp är bara ett skal utan mening
Det ekar mindre när jag fyller mig med dig

Jag såg alla sorters änglar
Hörde mamma snyftande be
Jag såg gamar cirkulera
Kände Guds hand tryckas ner
men jag ville inte förstå

Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
till att vilja ha mig

Ge mig en piska och en träl
Gör mig skada, gör mig kär
Ge mig salt och lite sol
Jag gör allt för lite mod

För:
Jag vill ha dig, ha dig
Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig

Jag vill bara ha dig, ha dig
till att vilja ha mig

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kristian Anttila's "Vill ha dig" expresses the singer's intense desire for someone, a longing that he is willing to waste his life on. He mentions throwing dice with the devil, seeing all kinds of angels, hearing his mother cry, and feeling the hand of God. Despite all of these experiences, the singer refuses to understand them and instead focuses on his desire for the person he wants. He talks about throwing stones at the sky and feeling empty without the person he wants, even comparing his body to a meaningless shell that only fills up when he is with that person. The last verse mentions a willingness to endure pain and suffering, all for the sake of having the person he wants to desire him in return.
