Tanker [English translation]

[Intro]

Oohh ahh

Oohh ohh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Refrain]

It think it's about time to tell you, who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start

[Verse 1]

I grew up in an appartment with my mom and dad

Don't worry Nabil, I havent' forgotten about you

An urban block just outside Copenhagen

With the others

And I played foodball until I broke my arm

Then my brother signed me up to a talent show

Did I ever thank him?

I'm having thoughts

[Refrain]

I think it's about time to tell you, who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start

[Verse 2]

My mother got sick when I was four

I remember it all like it was yesterday

But is that the reason for all of my sick cravings?

Please don't judge me

Cause I'm affraid that people will let me down

And so I love, even though they don't love me

And I hurt girls before they hurt me

Will you please help me?

[Refrain]

I think it's about time to tell you, who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start

[Refrain]

I think it's about time to tell you who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start

[Verse 3]

I'll never forget where it is I'm from

But often I forget the good things you gave me

As a mother and a father that both loved me

And now I have those memories, yeah

Deep inside I'll always be a child

Cause there were no time be so back then

I know I have issues and believe me so have you

If I give you my heart will you promise me not to fuck it up

[Refrain]

I think it's about time to tell you, who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start

[Refrain]

I think it's about time to tell you who I really am

Believe me, I would lie if I told you it wasn't hard

Cause the story has changed a couple of times

So I don't even know where to start
