[Lyric] Molly Sandén - DOM SKA VETA English Translation (Genius English Translations)

[Intro]
They must know

[Verse 1]
A tiny makeshift stage by the counter on a Monday at the mall
By the highway roundabout, I sang playback for nothing
Seemed shady, You used to say ”lil sweetie”
You should be grateful, should be grateful
That was before I had to starve until I soared in corsets above stages that I never got to keep
If I didn’t have the ”follow”, if I didn’t want to ”swallow”
If I wasn’t ”Carola”, wasn’t ”Carola”

[Bridge]
Was so lost but refused to stop, nah
All that needs to happen must go down

[Chorus]
They must know
They must know

[Verse 2]
My boyfriends were boys
Had six-packs, were a free pass
True divas & real hotties that half of Sweden wished to strangle
Could dance, could sing
Had dreams just like mine, dreams like mine (Dreams, dreams like mine)
In front of all & the camera, no one liked it
All wanted to watch me fall until I lay there on a dance floor
No one saw but they all watched, paparazzi, ”Se & Hör”
Poor stupid little girl, stupid little girl
[Bridge]
Was so lost but refused to stop, nah
All that needs to happen must go down

[Chorus]
They must know
They must know

[Verse 3]
In a backseat on ”Sunset” with a fucking row of palm trees
Spend 10 000 hours, LA dreaming, who is breaking?
Mum dad already split up
My sisters stopped calling, sisters stopped calling
Take a selfie, real tan
Up the ”Hills” in someone’s mansion, all losers
All famous in a smog of smoke & mist
The producers want to bang me, oh, surprise, deliver lines
Want to rip me off completely
Real tears, real salt
