Weekend 02:49
A quarter past we were intimate Half past I'd been degraded From a lover, a friend, a confidant To a guy that you once dated Well see if I care A quarter to I was shouting at you At the hour I was gone I guess it's true what they say Time sure flies when you're having fun What am I supposed to do now? Two steps forward, three steps back Miss your next turn, have a heart attack Love is an art, if you pass by start No longer someone's honey, don't collect the money What should I do with that gift I got for you? I don't think they'll take a return I'll find an active volcano and drop it down And watch that bastard burn, burn, burn You said that you loved me But that was a quarter past three Now it's midnight, and all hope is lost Time is money and I can't afford the cost You say it's not me, it's you Well fuck you too Two steps forward, three steps back Miss your next turn, have a heart attack Love is an art, if you pass by start No longer someone's honey, don't collect the money

Alene igjen, huset for meg selv Prøver å fordrive enda en kveld Lede tankene bort fra dit de helst vil gå Må finne noe annet å tenke på Men tanker går dit tanker vil Kan ei styre hvor de går til Som en flom eller hus i ild Tanker går dit de vil Når jeg skal sove får jeg aldri fred Tankene kommer og følelsene blir med Et tomrom jeg må fylle opp som før var fylt av din nakne kropp Ufrivillige erindringer er blant nattesøvnens hindringer Tanker går dit tanker må Kan ikke styre hva man tenker på Veien kan være lang å gå Men tanker går dit de må Når søvnen omsider henter meg inn Er det fortsatt uro i mitt sinn Urolige netter, som et fanget dyr Alene igjen, en ny morgen gryr Det var jeg som fant deg, dekket av ditt eget blod Jeg kunne i det minste ha fått sagt ha det før du dro Men tanker går dit tanker vil Kan ei styre hvor de går til Tanker går dit tanker må Kan ikke styre hva man tenker på

Are you the one who will keep me warm at night Make me feel as though everything will be all right By my side forever more, from twilight to twilight Each other's destiny? No, that's probably not right But you will do But you will do for now But you will do For now Will you be the one who sweeps me off my feet To a life of luxury at some island retreat Romance and coconut milk, always comfortably hot My one and only? Most likely not But you will do But you will do for now But you will do For now More a stumble than a fall Between love and nothing at all No pressure to perform I don't mind my milk lukewarm No flowers, no 'I do' I can't see myself with you For more than a year or two I can't see myself with you For more than a year or two But for now you will have to do For now

about

Between Love and Nothing at All is the newest EP by Norwegian lo-fi naive pop electronicThe Society of Poor Academics. On this go-around, the band is fortunate to be accompanied by The (wonderful and inspiring) J. Arthur Keenes Band. With two versions of their contagious offering Weekend backed with two additional fine tracks, Between Love and Nothing at All is instantly listenable and immediately memorable. It is a pleasure to listen to and is another piece of the ever-growing jigsaw puzzle that is tSoPA.
