Original lyrics
Destination: Ingenstans
I en pendeltågskupé
Tom, så när som på mig
Tyst, så när som på susandet
Sitter jag och betraktar mig själv
I det kolsvarta fönstret
Klockan har passerat midnatt
Och nederlaget är ett faktum
Medan gatlyktorna far förbi utanför
Förbannar jag dem, en efter en
Tåget rullar alltjämt på
Tillbaka till förlustens domän
Tillbaka till besvikelsens förnedrande tystnad
Tillbaka hem, destination ingenstans
Vad gör jag för fel?

Translation
Destination: Nowhere
In a train car
Empty, apart from me
Quite, apart from the rustling
I sit and look at myself
In the carbon black1 window
The clock has passed the midnight
And the defeat is a fact
While the street lights pass by outside
I curse them, one by one
The train keeps trundling on
Back to the domain of losses
Back to humiliating, disappointing silence
Back home, destination nowhere
What am I doing wrong?
