You Didn’t Know
 

En av Hoolas tidiga sånger på engelska.

 
You say you waited all the night
You say you waited for the light
And then at last
the morning came
the night had passed
but still darkness remained

And now you realize he’s gone
And people ask you
if there’s nothing besides
that you want
(Want is just a word
when you’re alone, you could have
murdered
for a stone from his heart)

Sleeping away
hours of pain
(Yellow canary hello!)
Dreaming the day
to meet him again

Caught inside yourself
your eyes have made you blind
All you see are the colours of your mind

One day the prison that is you
will be unlocked
and you’ll discover the truth
Inside the dark of darkness
the tide is sharp but harmless
far from the sea

You say you waited all the night
You say you waited for the light
You didn’t know
the light won’t show you where to go
The light of night is the dark
