I've been waiting for my brilliance to shine through

Like waiting would do

I've been called a little coward more than once

It hurts when it's true

I've been following your footprints in the snow

Trying to return the excuses that I stole



I'm the first on and the last off the bus

Little ego be still

And I fight the cold wind back up the street

To Hagnesta Hill

And the darkness and the snow fall as one

And I lost my scarf

At a busstop of the outskirts of town



I gather all the courage and the hate

Little ego goes wild

And my voice broke down I finally reached that age

I was cruel as a child

If this feeling that remains is not mine

Then it's something new

Maybe my brilliance shining through



It's noisy, can't think, I can't speak

I'm tired of handshakes so please

Get rid of this crowd

I can't breathe here anymore

You just have to let me go



It's noisy, can't think, I can't speak

I'm tired of handshakes so please

Get rid of this crowd

I can't breathe here anymore

You just have to let me go

You just have to let me go

You just have to let me go

You just have to let me go

And I don't need your hurry

You just have to let me go
