Viktor K. - Borderlands Lyrics

[Intro]
Lost between the lines they drew
Got two passports but still ain't true
F*ck these borders in my head
Every night I lay in bed

[Verse 1]
Grandma's stories 'bout the old days
Border guards and getaways
Dad lost his job at the mill
Now we're living on the hill
Looking down at Russia's lights
While my mind's caught in the fight
Between who I am and what they say
Swedish, Finnish, f*ck, I'm in decay

[Chorus]
Trapped between these f*ckin' states
Identity's my prison mate
Sofia calls but she don't know
How deep these border waters flow
I'm caught between the East and West
Anxiety inside my chest
Can't breathe, can't sleep, can't let it show
While sirens wail real f*ckin' low

[Verse 2]
Industrial beats match my heartbeat
Factory ghosts still haunt these streets
Language switching in my brain
Like the seasons' endless game
Memory fragments in the snow
Which culture's mine? I'll never know
Border lights flash through my room
While I'm drowning in this gloom

[Outro]
Stuck between these battle lines
Taking shots of border wine
Two cultures tearing me apart
While darkness creeps into my heart
This shit's been killing me for years
But trap beats drown out all my fears
