Slowly I fall with the rain & the future looks grim once again
Bottles and pills I´m up on the hills
Stuck with a ball and a chain
This city is so obsolete the drunks they up on the streets
But that´s the way it goes when you´re down in Västerås
Sick of life ain´t that a treat
Straight out of nowhere it´s coming on fast
I sit here and wonder how long will it last
Some of my best friends are gone
And the others don´t know where they belong
So light up the sky the beat must go on
Raise my glass for the black river song
And drink all my problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
Lonely & hammered at night and true love is way out of sight
A broke working class will shove it up your ass
But I know it won´t make it alright
Straight out of nowhere it´s coming on fast
I sit here and wonder how long will it last
Some of my best friends are gone
And the others don´t know where they belong
So light up the sky the beat must go on
Raise my glass for the black river song
And drink all my problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
Let the punishment finally begin for a life I traded for sin
Yeah,I sure paid the cost for a love that I lost
Strung out with a bottle of Gin
So light up the sky the beat must go on
Raise my glass for the black river song
And drink all my problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
