Flyktfast from ARVET by GRIFT
A recurring theme in Grift’s expression is the feeling of constantly crave away to something beyond the forests, the meadows, the people, etc. But another theme that is also very important for Grift is to see and appreciate what is in one's immediate environment. This song is the essence of these opposites. The paradox that I constantly wrestle with – to flee, but at the same time to stay, and feel that I am home.

Lyrics
Jag har raglat över ängar som har blommat sent om natten.
Jag har gömt mig in bland furor och förstått att allt ska fällas.
Fast i myllan som fäder har brukat stångas min längtan för evigt med plikten.
Döpt i forsen som renat vårt sinne klyver jag halmvasst banden till bygden.
Det som ständigt gror inom mig doftar bitterljuva minnen.
Det som håglöst slutar andas får min själ att vilja stanna.

Grift’s ambition is to evoke the mood some people are in great need of; the mood you can’t express through other mediums than music, images, and in some cases even through words. This kind of escapism is about breaking the chains of everyday given norms, and for a short moment becoming a stranger lost in a state of uncertain homelessness.
