This is a rough translation, in case non-Swedes would like to know what the song is about:
111 the bus is called
Because it takes 111 hours
To go to town
And now with David
Next to me
We carry some stuff together
We wear similar clothes
Carry hate and rural shame
We hide our smell
Autumn light
Casts the bus' shadow
Softly down across the water
Softly down across the lake
And across Färjemansleden[1]
We switch forests for parks
We switch our friends
Until nothing's left
Of Valla and Kastal[2]
[1] A street in the small town of Östersund, leading from suburban and rural areas into town. All songs on the album are named from streets of Östersund.
[2] "Valla and Kastal" refers to Vallaskolan and Kastalskolan, the schools that David of the lyrics and Martin Abrahamsson, the writer, went to, respectively, before they moved into town to start highschool.
