     Vem av vännerna där ute var äkta? Vem brydde sig vart du hamnat eller gjort? Livet som en värsting var soft för en stund, men det hela vände lika fort.

     Which of the friends out there were real? Who cared where you had ended up or [what you] had done? Life as a bad boy was chill for a moment, but turned around just as quick.
