Alt feil
No. 4 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feil vei
Galt svar
Dumt gjort
Hva var det jeg sa
Gi opp
Ikke snu
Vær deg selv
Hør på meg
Ta deg sammen
Når du går lei
Følg ditt hjerte
Bruk ditt hode
Ha is i magen
Les, men ikke tro det
Sett spor
Men ikke ta for mye plass

Vær mer Vær bedre Vær mindre
Du kan det
Følg med Snakk høyere Vær stille
Du skal det
Smil, Bli, Tvil
Du må det
Du skal det
Du kan det

Vi gjør alle så godt vi kan
Og vi gjør alt feil

Stakkar deg
Stakkar ham
Som elsket henne
Hun som aldri fant fram
Og alle de som snubler
Stakkar dem
Som vil forsones
De som slåss, de som glemmer
Stakkars oss

Vær mer Vær bedre Vær mindre
Du kan det
Følg med Snakk høyere Vær stille
Du skal det
Smil, Bli, Tvil
Du må det
Du skal det
Du kan det

Vi gjør alle så godt vi kan
Og vi gjør alt feil

Men vi prøver å gjøre det godt igjen
Rykke tilbake til start igjen
Prøver å rydde opp igjen
Begynner på nytt og på nytt igjen
Og gjør samme feil igjen

Vi gjør alle så godt vi kan
Og kanskje vi får det til
En gang i blandt
Før vi går feil vei





Vi gjør alle så godt vi kan
Og vi gjør alt feil

En gang i blandt
Once in a while


Før vi går feil vei
Before we go the wrong way

Good luck with your new album - I dont understand your language, but just LOVE your sound! Been a big fan since I heard "Ikke Sov" randomly on spotify, and hoping you one day tour the UK.

@byealex7607

Every video is enchanting, genuine - people, things, daily events, just life. It is so pleasant to watch them and listen to the soft music. It gets at you. Thank you for your wonderful non mainstream chamber works.
