Kuka minä olen 2012

about

Song I made inspired by Sabaton's "Metal Machine" and "Metal Crüe".
It uses titles from following Finnish metal bands as lyrics: Stam1na, Mokoma & Kotiteollisuus.
I think the outcome is pretty clever.

lyrics

[chorus]
Kuka minä olen, miksi elän tai hengitän,
psyykeni on paloina, hukassa tämän taivaan alla.
Elämä raskas kantaa, ylös nouse en haudan takaa,
en elä talven yli sillä on kylmä perkeleen syli.

Toisin kuin te, en ole entistä ehompi,
olen pelkkä houkka, vain ihmisen irvikuva.
Uni saa tulla, koska sarvipää jo saapui,
vainottuna voi matkata vain täältä etelään.

Etelään on kaksi reittiä, mutta vain yksi suunta,
olen murtumispisteessä kuten joutsen laulussaan.
Lääkkeet vain muuria pääni ympärille kasaavat,
koska niiden takana on Saatana, tuo pahan arkkitehti.

[chorus]

Suljen silmäni, vaivun murheen maille kauas pois,
näen tuonelan koivut ja suuren rautaportin.
Sen takana ovat kaikki kadonneet ihmiset,
jokainen meistä täällä on nyt tuomittu.

[chorus]

English translation:
[chorus]
Who am I, why do I live or breathe,
my psyche is shattered, lost under this sky.
Life is heavy to carry, I won't rise from beyond the grave,
I won't live past winter since Satan's lap is cold.

Unlike you, I'm not more whole than before,
I'm only a fool, a caricature of a man.
Sleep can come because the horned one arrived,
as persecuted I can only travel south from here.

There's two paths to south, but only one direction,
I'm at a breaking point like a swan in it's song.
Medications are building a wall around my head,
because behind them is Satan, the evi'ls architect.

[chorus]

I close my eyes, I fall in to sorrow's lands, far away,
I see the birches of the other side and a big iron gate.
Behind it are all the lost people,
everyone here is now sentenced.

[chorus]
