You rock and I love you. In a dirty way, too.

Hahaha....

Here is the translation I have for Sömnen. If you're Swedish (or know swedish) please correct any errors I have and I'll edit my text. Thanks!

Sömnen

Never look back
Never look back

The smell of extinguished fires from behind me
For so awfully long was I ready to go
into your vicinity
I shelter my overgrown,
dumb heart
I never look back

Sleep comes like a friend
A roundtrip into the silence
Sleep comes like a friend
it judges no one
forgets no one
just opens its embrace

Never look back
Never look back

One time in a future
I will forget
how terribly long was I ready to go
into your vicinity
I repeat a ridiculous
old mantra
I never look back
I never look back

Sleep comes like a friend
a soft warm hand in the silence
Sleep comes like a friend
It judges no one
forgets no one
just opens its embrace

Never look back
Never look back

There are some words you should edit:
Never see you around -> Never look back
I never see me around -> I never look back
Luck returns against the silence -> A round trip into (the) silence
Never see you about -> Never look back

Thanks Utomjording! Corrections made. I knew I must've been a bit off, especially the tur retur part. I didn't know the verb to see was used reflexively, good to know. Thanks for the help

Again, please feel free to let me know if I made any mistakes in the translations. God, I love this CD. I can't get enough.

Generation Ex

Stand beside my unlocked door
in the razor blade of car lights from the street
Your face is pale
almost cruel
it echoes in the staircase
drips from your fingers

Everything that goes again, comes back
One day all the debts will be paid

And you know that I'm right
I'm right, you're wrong
don't have time for all your shit
Yea Yea, I know what we lost
and I know that you know
I am right
I am right, you are wrong
How can it matter?
The future is still beyond our reach

Say something, say anything now
You know that your tears can make me panik

Do something
do anything now
Destroy something
Hit me, destroy something
I'll survive

I should have always been the one that stood behind you
I should have always answered when you called me
I should have always been the one who watched your back
You should have always, always been....

That which goes again, comes back
one day all the debts will be paid

And you know that I'm right
I am right, you are wrong
of course, we long to come back
to all that we lies we made
and I know that you know I'm right
I am right, you are wrong
How kan it matter?
The future is still beyond our reach
