[luigisanchez]

There's a king upon the throne
He's the king there all alone
He seems troubled and real sad
Just when thought
That he was glad
To be the ruler of the earth
Could it be, it wasn't worth
More than nothing?

From the day that he was born
In his side there was a thorn
He just couldn't find the key
To be happy and be free
He felt forced to
Wear the crown
Slowly it will drag him down
Into nothing

One more drink and
You are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect
Once you reach the sky
Pop another pill,
Don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of
When you swam upstream
And don't you care
Too much 'bout you feel inside
It is probably nothing

I never told you 'bout my dream
How I saw us as a team
We would free the universe
With a chorus and a verse
We were gonna
Make a change
But like how every dream is strange
It's also nothing

What was goin' through your mind
What kind of truth did you find
What did you see from the top
That would finally make you stop
Did it give peace to your soul
Like you reached your final goal
Or just nothing?

One more drink and
You are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect
Once you reach the sky
Pop another pill,
Don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of
When you swam upstream
And don't you care too
Much 'bout what you feel inside
It is probably nothing

On and on, on the road,
Never-ending
Keep a smile up,
Make sure you're pretending
It's been a long
While since you ate the pain

On and on, you're no fish
In the water
But you're slowly on
Your way to the slaughter
Before you know,
Everything's too late

One more drink and
You are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect
Once you reach the sky
Pop another pill,
Don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of
When you swam upstream
And as I hear your song
Play on the radio
A certain sadness in
Me always starts to grow
Will I ever understand
The reason why
The melodies make
Me both wanna smile and cry
And all the things
You make me feel inside
Are anything but nothing

GOD DAMN. I thought this song was probably 20 years old when I heard it. Unbelievably happy to know people can still make songs like this... Absolutely fucking gorgeous. 💚💚💚

Best Millencolin song in a long long loong time. This song really is something else.

[ticopunkerz]

Hard to believe there are people who have never heard of Millencolin.

16 years of loving Millencolin here! Somehow the chorus reminds me of Tony Sly songwriting. 😃

[sirsouthpaw]

Is it me or are these new songs the best sound Millencolin has ever achieved ? Perfection

There's a king upon the throne
He's the king [?]
He sees trouble [?]
[?]
To be the ruler of the earth
Could it be, it wasn't worth
More than nothing?

From the day that he was born
In his side there was a thorn
He just couldn't find the key
To be happy and be free
He felt forced to wear the crown
Slowly it will drag him
Down into nothing

One more drink and you are runnin' out of life
Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And don't you care too much about the fear inside
It is probably nothin'

I never told you 'bout my dream
How I saw us as a team
We would free the universe
With a chorus and a verse
We were gonna make change
But like how every dream is strange
It's also nothing

What was goin' through your mind
What kind of truth did you find
What did you see from the top
That would finally make you stop
Did it give peace to your soul
Like you reached your final goal

Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And don't you care too much 'bout what you feel inside
It is probably nothin'

On and on, on the road, neverendin'
Keep a smile up, make sure you're pretended
It's been a long while
Since you [?]

On and on, you're no fish in the water
But you're slowly on your way to the slaughter
Before you know, everything [?]

One more drink and you are runnin' out of life
Everything turns perfect once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And as I hear your song play on the radio
A certain sadness in me always starts to grow
Will I ever understand the reason why
The melodies thank me, don't wanna smile and cry
And all the things you make me feel inside
Are anything but nothing

I remember the first time I heard this band. It was very early 1996. My buddy got a sampler cassette that Epitaph sent to catalog holders to promote this album from this Swedish punk band called Millencolin, “Life on a Plate.” We were immediately super hooked and grabbed the album up as soon as Epitaph released it. It’s crazy to me that 23 years later I still think they’re awesome and they’re still releasing good material. Such an under appreciated band in the scene.

[manuelmachado]

I met Nikola in New Orleans, I told him My wife and I loved his Swedish language solo album, he said wow you like it even tho it’s in Swedish I said yes we love the MELODIES... he mentions melodies in this song. I love Millencolin.
