Gymnasion Lyrics
I've been walking to my house in the fog
Like I did years ago, looking forward
Left the party and I got lost
But I’m found in a street around the corner where you lived
You can tell me what it's like when you play
All your songs in the night at half past 4 and
If looking is enough, I don't say a word
Bad habits are what you do worst
These days in my mind, I count ’em in bottles
It's like a rush, I'm back again
Can we pretend it's not just
(All in my head?)
We don't have to play like we had
If something's gonna hold you back, I won't
You can go and tell me what it used to be
But who cares
'Cause we don’t have to play like we had
If something’s gonna hold you back, I won't
I keep thinking that you’re staying in my bed
Got a vision in my head, you're not there
I've been walking to your house like I did years ago
When our minds were a thunder
Places that I used to read with a can in my hand
And your words turning backward
There are voices all the time telling me how to read
All the signs, all the sounds that I've heard
What’s left under my bed felt like chemicals
The gymnasium where we met is burning for
And you sleep on the right side of the pillow
I thought it would be bulletproof
But it's like my arms ain't getting any stronger
We don't have to play like we had
If something's gonna hold you back, I won't
You can go and tell me what it used to be
But who cares
'Cause we don't have to play like we had
If something's gonna hold you back, I won't
I keep thinking that you're staying in my bed
Got a vision in my head, you're not there
(It's not about you)
(Not about you)
(Not about you)
(Not about)
(It's not about you)
(Not about you)
And I've been wondering why the leaves around your house
Are never turning yellow
It's not like I think too much
But
It's not about you
Not about you
Not about you
Not about
It's not about you
Not about you
(Is it in my head?)
We don't have to play like we had
If something's gonna hold you back, I won't
You can go and tell me what it used to be
But who cares
I see you in the corner of my room
It's not like I called my father to get away
Get away
Get away
(It's not about you)
(Not about you)
(Not about you)
(Not about)
(It's not about you)
(Not about you)
Gymnasion Q&A

Gymnasion was written by Michele Loda & Andrea Suriani & HÅN.
Who produced Gymnasion's ?
Gymnasion was produced by HÅN & Andrea Suriani.
What did HÅN say about "Gymnasion"?
I think it’s a very open track, much less dark than what I usually do. In that period, I listened to a lot of Channel Orange and Melodrama by Lorde, and tried to infuse that feeling of both nostalgia and liberation in the song.
– HÅN, The Line of Best Fit
Why is the title spelled gymnasion instead of gymnasium?
I studied a lot of Latin in high school, where we used to translate Latin compositions and texts as well as study mythology and epic poems, it’s part of our culture to study them. Calling this song “gymnasion” was a reference both to the place where I met the person in the song and to that period of...
