Livet går sin gång

Song Meaning

The lyrics paint a picture of a world moving forward with relentless, almost indifferent, regularity. The opening lines establish a sense of routine, stating "Livet går sin gång" (Life goes on) as if it's a familiar, ingrained habit. This is echoed by the observation that even the moon follows its path "Ovanför sta'n" (Above the town), emphasizing a cosmic order that contrasts with the narrator's internal state. The repetition of "Allt har sin gång" (Everything has its course) reinforces this feeling of inevitability, suggesting a passive acceptance of the world's progression.
