Favouite bits of kent lyrics (from English translations?)
So what are everyone's favourite kent lyrics after an English translation? They're all from the kent awardspace site...it seems to have translated all of them. I haven't seen them all, just some but these are the bits I really like
Beredd På Allt
It is spelled
F-E-A-R
I am afraid of everything
Prepared for everything
Vy Från Ett Luftslott (the entire song's lyrics even after translation seem great):
We lie back against back
Finally you fall asleep
And I feel such relief
As the music begins again
Have you thought about
How we almost never lift our eyes
From the ground
To watch the black space above the clouds
Where the missiles meet
They whisper holes in the sky
They will be our death
December
November, we finish the story soon
do you have some lies left
to powder your answer
December have you some heroes left
then you are some rare species
the last one of its kind
Det Finns Inga Ord
And in our country no one can be superior
This is Sweden, please cry when no one sees
There are no words for it in this damn language
I have no words for how we breathe, think, feel the same thing
747 Swedish version
But against rubber, glass and metal
A miracle doesn't mean a thing...
Pa Drift
The bohemians and poets are pigs
And On The Road is the stupidest shit I've read
Because Heroes and Heroines stay put
With their backs up against the wall
Just skin against the sharp edge
And they scratch and punch and bite
For their lives or someone else's
They get no reward
But they ask for nothing
They just do it, bite down and shut up
And I really like the Klaparen lyrics though not any particular line

I hate seeing a thread left unanswered , so while I haven't really thought about which lyrics I love (and there's a few I'm sure), I'll agree with you on Beredd pa allt. (my keyboard won't let me do the a with the ring above it, grrrr!) the R-Ä-D-S-L-A bit in swedish is great.
I'll come back when I've thought some more...

I'll have to give it some more thought too, but I agree on Beredd på allt. Mostly because of the use of the words Rädd/Beredd. Great way of playing with language.
