The cover of Axel Lundén's solo album Goodbye Susto, with an abstract and colorful artwork that seems to depict blue waves against a yellow sky and a black sun.

Goodbye, Susto

Oh, where can I go when all my secrets are known?

Oh, where can I be when my shame is all anyone can see?

Take me away from Stockholm

Where I can be free

Where nobody knows who I am or has opinions about who I'm s'pposed to be

Goodbye, susto

I'm learning to let it go

Goodbye, susto

Watch the clouds swallow up the city below

So high off the ground, it's easier to see

With only the sky and a hope and a dream

Oh, I know a place where I can be a face in the crowd

Oh, just to be quiet in a place that's impossibly loud.

Nestled against the Pacific

Where you set me free

And nobody knows who I am, but it's never been more fine with me.

Goodbye, susto

I'm learning to let it go

Goodbye, susto

Watching the clouds and pollution drift by from here down below

Here from rock bottom, it's easier to see

With only the occluded sky and a hope and an impossible dream

Oh, I know of a nice place to crash and a fine place to hide.

Oh, a lovely place to visit, but not to reside.

Here among twelve million people, I feel so alone.

There's only one person on earth that I want and I long to go home.

Goodbye, susto

I'm learning to let it go

Goodbye, susto

Watch the haze swallow the city that sprawls out below

So high off the ground, it's easier to see

With only the sky and a hope and a dream.
