Lyrics Susanne Sundfør

Susanne Sundfør

Rome

I don’t wanna dive

Dive into the sea

Where no one will ever find me, find me

Mayday, mayday!

Death needs a surgeon

Undress me and lighten my burden

Oh, I’m still waiting for you

I’m still waiting for you to come back

Oh, I’m still waiting for you

I’m still waiting for you to come back

From Rome

From the ashes of Rome

From the ashes of Rome

Come back

Bring the children home

You know we are all alone

You know we are all alone

In a flooded dome

I don’t want to feel

I don’t want to fear

I don’t want to know that the end is near

Tell me it’s over

Tell me it won’t linger

Bend me over and separate my fingers

Oh, I’m still waiting for you

I’m still waiting for you to come back

Oh, I’m still waiting for you

I’m still waiting for you to come back

From Rome

(Winter is coming)

From the ashes of Rome

From the ashes of Rome

Come back

(We will know that it was friendly fire

And say that Jesus was a liar)

Bring the children home

You know we are all alone

You know we are all alone

In a flooded dome

Tell it like it is

Tell me slowly

Tell it like it is

Like a true story

Tell it like it is

The king is dead, he’s gone

Let the gasoline flow

Let the locusts follow

Open the gates, evaporate

Black bodies

Black hollows
