�t Helvete Med Himlen
Parken Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ute pе gatan tдnds ljusen igen
Men jag har inte kommit upp ur min sдng
Det kдnns som jag har vinter I hjдrtat
Och alla portarna дare stдngda fцare mig
Jag ville bara ha en del av det hдare
Fцare alla stenar och sеnt som jag bдare
Och de kunde ha sett mig I цgonen
Och de kunde ha frеgat

Еt helvete med himlen
Jag har inget att betala mer
Nu vill jag bara ha nеnstans att flyga
Bort frеn er
Еt helvete med himlen
Om ni inte slдpper in mig
Jag hцll stadigt men jag tappade taget
Och det var lеngt ner

Fцrsцkte gе men ingen gick bredvid mig
Fцrsцkte le fast ingen titta pе mig
Hдare fцrsvinner man lдtt mellan husen
Snart sе glцmmer man det man kom hit fцare
Ute pе gatan дare allting som fцrr
Men jag har drivor av snц vid min dцrr
Det kдnns som jag har vinter I hjдrtat
Och alla portar дare stдngda fцare mig

Еt helvete med himlen
Jag har inget att betala mer
Nu vill jag bara ha nеnstans att flyga
Bort frеn er
Еt helvete med himlen
Om ni inte slдpper in mig
Jag hцll stadigt men jag tappade taget
Och det var lеngt ner

Men hellre brinner jag
Дn jag lдgger mig ner och ser
Hellre brinner jag
Дn jag knдar fцare er och ber
Hellre brinner jag
Jag har gjort det fцrut och jag
Gцare det igen, gцare det igen
Jag gцare det igen

Еt helvete med himlen
Jag har inget att betala mer
Nu vill jag bara ha nеnstans att flyga
Bort frеn er
Еt helvete med himlen
Om ni inte slдpper in mig

Jag hцll stadigt men jag tappade taget
Och det var lеngt ner

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Parken's song "Åt helvete med himlen" speak of the struggle to find belonging and acceptance in a world that seems to have shut its doors on the singer. The opening lines introduce the setting of the streets coming to life with the lighting of the lamps, but the singer remains paralyzed in bed, dealing with a sense of winter in their heart. The sense of exclusion is highlighted when the singer mentions that all doors seem to be closed to them, and they wished that someone would acknowledge their existence.

The chorus, "Åt helvete med himlen" (to hell with heaven), is a cry for help and a desire for something more than what is currently available. The singer feels that they have nothing more to pay and wants to fly away from everyone who has let them down. The second verse talks about the struggle of trying to fit in, but the loneliness and the feeling of being invisible make it even harder. The snow symbolism reappears in the second verse, with the singer's door covered in snow representing the isolation and coldness they feel in their heart.

The final verse shows the singer taking a stand and choosing to burn rather than give up. The repetition of "Hellre brinner jag" (I'd rather burn) shows a sense of defiance against those who have rejected the singer. In the end, the chorus repeats, indicating that the singer still feels excluded from the world they're living in.
