[Verse 1] That's me right there on the corner Listening to Wu in my Walkman Neon lights at the water, reflecting the city I'm lost in That's me right there on the corner I one day would be leaving For a dream that I didn't have That I'd one day would believe in Strange how the same place I ran from Is the same place I think of whenever the chance comes It's inevitable, ‘cause wherever I go… [Chorus] I hear echoes of a thousand screams As I lay me down to sleep There's a black hole deep inside of me Reminding me, that I've lost my backbone Somewhere in Stockholm I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm [Verse 2] I'm from a place where we never openly show our emotions We drown our sorrows in bottomless bottles And leave them to float in the ocean I'm from a place where we never Separate people from people Some generalize, but in general I Still believe that we are treated as equals My father, my mother, my sister My brother, my friends and my family's there My hope and my money, my innocence in a sense Almost lost everything here Right where I was founded Is right where I'll be found dead The streets of my backbone, until I get back home [Chorus] I hear echoes of a thousand screams As I lay me down to sleep There's a black hole deep inside of me Reminding me, that I've lost my backbone Somewhere in Stockholm I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm [Verse 3] I'm not alone, I am the fire that burns Not of the city but out of the 'burbs A river that's just dying of thirst I am a reverend lying in church A crack in the pattern, a miracle waiting to happen A promise that never was kept One of those moments you'll never forget I am that feeling inside The one we all know but can't really describe I am the blood spill, but I'm in love still [Bridge] Somewhere in Stockholm But I'm not alone Don't have to get by on my own I'm finally home, hemma i Stockholm Där jag hör hemma [Chorus] I hear echoes of a thousand screams As I lay me down to sleep There's a black hole deep inside of me Reminding me, that I've lost my backbone Somewhere in Stockholm I lost my backbone, somewhere in Stockholm
