“6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days,and I still don’t know which month it was thenor what day it is now.Blurred out linesfrom hangovers to coffeeAnother vagabond lost to love.4am alone and on my way.These are my finest moments.I scrub my skinto rid me from youand I still don’t know why I cried.It was just something in the way you took my heart and rearranged my insides and I couldn’t recognise the emptiness you left me with when you were done. Maybe you thought my insides would fit better this way, look better this way, to you and us and all the rest.But then you must have changed your mindor made a wrongbecause why did youleave?6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days,and I still don’t know which month it was thenor what day it is now.I replace cafés with crowded bars and empty roads with broken bottlesand this town is healing me slowly but still not slow or fast enough because there’s no right way to do this.There is no right way to do this.There is no right way to do this.”
Charlotte Eriksson“I want my life to be the greatest story. My very existence will be the greatest poem.Watch me burn.Love always, Charlotte”
Charlotte Eriksson, Empty Roads & Broken Bottles; in search for The Great Perhaps“I seek the city because there is nothing sweeter than not being alone in your loneliness.”
Charlotte Eriksson“I’m still lonely and it’s a glorification of something I’m not finished with. I don’t want to be distracted from my work by other people, but the absence of it all distracts me from my work and that’s why I run towards the city, to get a little glimpse of it.”
Charlotte Eriksson“I’ve been trying to stay real and true and proud of who I am,all those ideals of how to lookI’ve been trying not to care.But I’m still holding my breath, I ‘m still watching every step.I’m still tip-toeing away, when I’m getting to ashamed of myself. I don’t want to be your letdown,I’m scared like hell I’m not enough.I don’t wanna beyour failure anymore.— The Glass Child, Letdown”
Charlotte Eriksson“My home will never be a place, but a state of mind, which I find through my music.”
Charlotte Eriksson“Are you in love? What makes your heart beat faster? What do you want people to think about when they hear your name.”
Charlotte Eriksson“Dear me, one day I'll make you proud.”
Charlotte Eriksson“I am a complicated person with a simple life.”
Charlotte Eriksson“This world can be quite wonderful once you let yourself be a part of it.”
Charlotte Eriksson“It doesn’t matter how many times you leave, it will always hurt to come back and remember what you once had and who you once were. Then it will hurt just as much to leave again, and so it goes over and over again. Once you’ve started to leave, you will run your whole life.”
