Words are scratched up on the walls from another life.
The old menus reminds you of chores that now are done.
The kitchen sink, the stone furnace doesn’t get much use at all. Where is the ambition?
Bags of flour, old pots and pans, all left undisturbed here in Hälsingland.
The sun won’t set, its summer time in the cabin house.
Right by road, car buzzing by doesn’t seem quite right.
A bitter taste of last years harvest, we picked the bushes clean, but never ate the jam.
Some things get done, and others not. I love it though, here in Hälsingland.
Start cleaning out, this house was made for having guests over.
They traveled by, got served some pie and a pot of brew.
The dust on windows, the dead flies too, reminds you the times that were.
A simpler life, all is rushing by, things change here to, here in Hälsingland.
Shave my face. My daughter laughs. She wants to grow a beard when she gets old.
Nothing seems to make her mad. Serenity’s good for the soul I’m told.
Eat breakfast late or not at all. Forget which day it is.
I grow more fond of pace and life. Been here many times before. Hälsingland.
Gravel roads and bicycles, dust everywhere must wash my face.
Kiddie pool with some kids in it, green grass and a blue sky.
They complement each other like beer and my dry throat.
But where is the ambition?
Take what earth is giving.
It’s giving more than plenty in Hälsingland.
The weather’s gray but air is warm, let’s go for a swim anyway, why not?
Places marked by memories. Nostalgia is sweet but also, merciless in a sense I know. Truth can sting some too.
Sunday anxiety. Back to work. Behind the wheel in in a car done by Le Quemant.
They never learn, and nor do I, up in Hälsingland.
You really should not care, ‘cause you’re in Hälsingland.
Nothing changes, all has changed in Hälsingland.
