I ett land I en vдrld utan glas
Nеnting hдnde men ingen vet vad
Ingen minns nеtt men alla stod kvar
Vi var dдr nдr alla ropade lev
Vдrlden var vacker och sе undrebart skev
Vi skruva till den vi vred och vi vred
Tills livet vдllde in pе riktigt I oss med
Vi som visste var дr vi nеgonstans
Var det bara sе det var nдr vеr drцm fцrsvann
Nu stеr jag kvar hдr med nеgot hеrt I min hals
Nu stеr jag kvar hдr och vet ingenting alls
Vad vi hlar druckit vad vi har gеtt loss
Och stдlt еt sidan alla tvivel som gnagt I oss
Jag glцmmer aldrig hur du sjцng nдr du brann
Jag glцmmer aldrig nдr din rдdsla fцrsvann
Det vi har kvar ligger hдr I min hand
Det vi tror pе rinner undan som sand
Hцj volymen jag tror jag nеr fram
Vill se till att inga glцmmer vеra namn
Vi som visste var дr vi nеgonstans
Var det bara sе nдr vеr drцm fцrsvann
Nu stеr jag kvar hдr med nеgot hеrt I min hals
Nu stеr jag kvar hдr och vet ingenting alls
Dagarna gе men tiden stеr still
Och jag kan inte stanna kvar hдr fast jag gдrna vill
Jag tдnker aldrig pе de mдnniskor jag glцmt
Jag tдnker aldrig pе de drцmmar jag drцmt
The song "Vi som visste" by Parken is a song that speaks to the feelings of uncertainty, loss, and confusion. The lyrics describe a group of people who were once together on a rooftop in a city, where they experienced something that they cannot quite remember. The song explores the idea that sometimes things happen in life that we cannot explain, and we are left wondering what they mean.
Despite the fact that they cannot remember what happened, the group is connected by their experience. They were there together, and they all felt something powerful. They all know that they were a part of something, even if they cannot explain what it was. The lyrics express a longing for that feeling again, and a fear that they may never find it.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Vi som visste var дr vi nеgonstans," which translates to "We who knew, where are we?". This line expresses the feeling of being lost and unsure, even when we thought we had it all figured out.
