Thomas Dybdahl - This Year lyrics

Here comes wintertime

Like a long and dark night

Man, I feel so unprepared this time

No stored heat, just the smell of deceit and defeat

Rolled into one and then put on repeat

I really need to get a hold of myself

If I'm to get back on my feet

Cause this year I got my heart broken

My fears awoken

My beliefs shaken

And my dignity taken

But am I wrong to assume that the world is absurd

When religion comes first and knowledge comes third

And there's a fast river

That's a slow killer

And cause for bonuses at Phizer

But advice that she won't get her pills if we don't pay her bills

And it's a sad story but greed is our top skill

So far so good

Except for a vague feeling that I should not expect calls

Family dinners, long vacations or pictures on bedroom walls

These are things I really don't need at all

I just hope she's a

Heartbreaker

A soulshaker

And a lovemaker

Or a damn good faker

Cause I really don't care about these little things

That make a household work

Or make her things ring

And it's a long story with no glory

Just mistaken for an undertaking that doesn't need replicating

Oh, these are things I really don't need at all

I got my heart broken

My fears awoken

My beliefs shaken

And my dignity taken

But am I wrong to assume that the world is absurd

When religion comes first and knowledge comes third

And there's a fast river

That's a slow killer

And cause for bonuses at Phizer

But advice that she won't get her pills if we don't pay her bills

And it's a sad story but greed is our top skill
