Luftpalats from Till Skogen by Kolonien
Arvid: It hurts to change, to grow. And everything changed when I was 23. I had to rise to the new role of becoming a father for the first time. Looking back I remember the struggle my younger self had with making the youthful, impulsive dreamer fit into this new frame and the scheduled order of family life. This song tells of stepping into the unknown, hopefully arriving as a new person at the end of the tunnel...and trying not to lose yourself along the way.

Lyrics
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Slowly drained of my strength
However I turn, I’m still empty
Our future is long ago, a castle built on sand
Where I’m searching for a place to plant my roots
Give me more, please, give me more
I was 23
Was dropped into the middle
New framing and new rules
Spotting gold on the horizon
Grinding down my youth and my thirst
Give me more, please, give me more
Who could save us then?
Hold the shards in your palm
And say come, let’s stick together
I hear your silent call
Who would sing our song?
