Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää We’ve tried to keep the weather clear but The atmosphere is tense because we have an uninvited guest How can we free ourselves from the silence we maintain Let the rain hit the ground We thought the sky would open if we waited long enough but How do we save ourselves before the real destruction No matter how much time it takes for us to learn After the storm you’ll see nature begins to heal itself Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää Don’t offer me your pretense You share your views and your opinions without asking I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no! You assume that I’m not capable of decide You tell the stories and you put them in my mouth I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no! You get on my nerves I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no! I don’t need your sympathy Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää I’m the wall you lean on After all mind control I’ve given you more than I’ve received in return (Back off) Every cell in me (Back off) Stay away from me No offence my old friend Now it’s my turn to decide where to draw the line (Back off) Every cell in me (Back off) Stay away from me Keep your crisis to yourself I’m not going to help (Back off) Every cell in me (Back off) Stay away from me Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää I don’t know if I’m dead or alive Your weapons are more powerful But I’m afraid that you will find me anyway Every time I look into your eyes I don’t know if I’m dead or alive I thought I’d learned from my mistakes I won’t get free until you choose to let me go Every time I look into your eyes I don’t know if I’m dead or alive I can’t move I can no longer deny I’m waiting for you to decide Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää I’m not a psycho You force me to tell you why I don’t want to explain it to you I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho Sometimes I’m furious I don’t need to explain this to you I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho Deep down I know there’s something wrong but I can’t express my feelings I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho I’m not a psycho Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää You tried to build a creature It had to meet all your needs You thought it would obey you You made mistake just like Frankenstein You can’t decide for another Can you fall asleep knowing what you’ve created Every being must be respected as it is Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Ahonen & Mikko Kujanpää Are you ready for intervention First you need me then you blame me What makes you so disrespectful It’s not my fault It’s not my fault You’re looking for an angel but No one passes through a brick wall You’re ungrateful and unfaithful It’s not my fault It’s not my fault This time I’ll tear myself away It’s not my fault It’s not my fault Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää You look so familiar I don’t even know your name It feels like deja vu Nothing comes between us It feels like deja vu Just a fleeting moment and all this evaporates Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää There’s a light in your eyes that tells the truth You may be disappointed along the way Fight to live the life you want to live You don’t have to give up any of your dreams Luckily, you have those who’ll watch your back Fight to live the life you want to live
Now the pressure is rising and the clouds are piling up
Who absorbs all our energy
We are one
Feel how the storm wind blows
Let the cloud show its lightning
that’s how we pave the way for the sun
We are one
darkness surrounds us now even more
I will be right by your side
And the air feels fresh and much easier to breathe
I hate it when you’re behaving like a saint
It’s empty talk
The bomb inside of me goes tick-tock tick-tock
You’re acting like you know me but the truth is you know nothing about me
Your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
I feel like I’m suffocating, suffocating
I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
You’ve got it all wrong
So, you steal my replies
You’ve gone too far
The bomb inside of me goes tick-tock tick-tock
You’re acting like you know me but the truth is you know nothing about me
Your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
I feel like I’m suffocating, suffocating
I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
You’ve got it all wrong
stay away from my thoughts
I can speak for myself
Your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
I feel like I’m suffocating, suffocating
I don’t need your sympathy, your sympathy, no!
You’ve got it all wrong
whenever you need support
But you won’t repair me if I collapse
I’ve become invisible
For too long, I’ve agreed to your demands
I must set boundaries before I lose my nerve
Even though it hurts (It’s over now)
(Watch out) wants to be seen
(Freedom) after all the years spent in hiding
(Keep out) I can’t be free
(No more) if I have to look after all your needs
I don’t want to be taken for granted
because I deserve respect
Solving your problems isn’t my mission in life
Even though I’ve tried
(Watch out) wants to be seen
(Freedom) after all the years spent in hiding
(Keep out) I can’t be free
(No more) if I have to look after all your needs
Can you listen to me even this one last time
(Watch out) wants to be seen
(Freedom) after all the years spent in hiding
(Keep out) I can’t be free
(No more) if I have to look after all your needs
You paralyze, you paralyze me
You just need one shot and I’ll lose
For me it’s safer to try to hide
You paralyze, you paralyze me
When I get you out of my mind
You come back to mix up my life
You paralyze me
You paralyze, you paralyze, paralyze me
but somehow you tricked me again
Caught in a spider web like a fly
You paralyze, you paralyze me
When I get you out of my mind
You come back to mix up my life
You paralyze me
You paralyze, you paralyze, paralyze me
You have a hold over me
Part of me still wants you
even after everything you’ve done to me
You paralyze, you paralyze me
When I’m ready to say goodbye
You lure me back to you with lies
You paralyze me
you paralyze you paralyze
Paralyze me
I’m so unpredictable
What keeps me awake at night
Why the walls around me fall
because I don’t think you understand me
So, I decide to keep it all inside
I’m no maniac
If I sometimes lose control
I’m just being myself
You’re the one who’s the psycho
Sometimes I cry my eyes out
It’s nothing serious
It’s not a mental breakdown
because I feel like you don’t support me
So, why would I even bother to try
I’m no maniac
If I sometimes lose control
I’m just being myself
There is nothing more to tell
you just drive me mad
I don’t want to have this conversation with you again
In silence I have tried to solve all the problems I have faced but
the repressed negative energy tends to come out in any way
I’m misunderstood
I’m no maniac
If I sometimes lose control
I’m just being myself
There is nothing more to tell
I just can’t believe
You’ve become my enemy when I just wanted good for you
With all the features you like
Without asking for it
If you just train it well
At first it did what you wanted
Until something went wrong
You have brought a monster to life
Creature has its own will
Because you gave it nothing
It got enough of you
The oppressed don’t forget easily
That monster is alive
you need to do something about your behaviour
for all the mistakes you made
Don’t bite the helping hand
If you don’t know how to stop it
Don’t drag me into your misery
I’ve been there too many times before u-wou
If you always end up fighting
No one else can be your remedy
You’ll have to figure out it on your own u-wou
It’s not my fault
try to understand that I can’t be your saviour
You’ll have to deal with your past
I can’t take it anymore
If you don’t know how to stop it
Don’t drag me into your misery
I’ve been there too many times before u-wou
If you always end up fighting
No one else can be your remedy
You’ll have to figure out it on your own u-wou
It’s not my fault
This time I won’t clean your plate
This time you’ll need to face yourself on your own
if you don’t know how to stop it
Don’t drag me into your misery
I’ve been there too many times before u-wou
It’s not my fault
if you always end up fighting
and lose what’s left of your dignity
I refuse to be your shield anymore u-wou
It’s all your fault
It’s like I’ve known you
For at least a hundred years
But that’s irrelevant to me
Here’s more than either of us can see
When two realities suddenly meet
It feels like deja vu
a vision of the past out of the blue
It feels like deja vu
Neither time nor distance
We’ll find each other again
I don’t care how long it takes
Decades or several lives
I’ve been waiting for you since day one
When two realities suddenly meet
It feels like deja vu
a vision of the past where I knew you
It feels like deja vu
I’ll forget you until we meet (again)
You’ve decided to look for something new
You move resolutely towards your destination
If you put too much weight on what they say
Who have never tried to bring about change
Remember why you want to turn that page
You may need to defend who you are
Don’t believe the doubters you might meet
On your way to build your own empire
Even if someone tells you to let them be
You’re not here to meet anyone else’s expectations
When you’re lost they’ll get you back on track
Keep those people close to you at all times
Without support, it’s harder to survive
You may need to defend who you are
Don’t believe the doubters you might meet
On your way to build your own empire
The Cost of Greatness
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
Feeling like a tightrope walker
Underneath there’s an endless drop
I’m trying to keep myself together
If I slip, I will drown in a dreary stream
Drown your sorrows in water
Let your worries wash away
Jump in
In some way I want to jump in
to the flow and forget my sorrow
Part of me still wants to know
how long can I go on before I fall
Prepare yourself
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
The moment has come
You’ve waited for so long
Get ready for
The stage is yours
Look at the crowd
They all scream and shout
Spread the word
here comes a sensation
When the curtain falls
and the lights go on
It’s the moment
when dream becomes real
Behold, who’s the star of this scene
Everybody is waiting
for you to show off your skills
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
Once you open the game, you’re no longer safe
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
You’ll be replaced if you fall from grace
Once you are known
they won’t leave you alone
Protect yourself
from abusers
Do not regret
Someone is always upset
Throw away
all the shame you may feel
No need to bow to anyone
you only live your life once
and then it’s all gone
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
Once you open the game, you’re no longer safe
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
The role you maintain can drive you insane
You’ll be replaced if you fall from grace
You are like marionette who is guided by the attention
what if you were left alone, how could you move without external fuel?
How far are you willing to go
if there is a risk for you
to lose it all
Will you get up on the stage
to feel the glow of grace
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
Once you open the game, you’re no longer safe
Dive in to eternal fame to have immortal name
You’ll be replaced if you fall from grace
Dive in to eternal fame to feel the glow of grace
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen & Aleksi Mäkelä, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I know what you have been talking
but understand that it won’t stop me
it just reveals your uncertainty
Deeds never done will never be glorified
I want to remind you of that by
waiting for someone to pick you up
you’ll never achieve anything
Bring it on, bring it on
I can take it all
every hit
but I will never fall
Bring it on
I will face it all
Every tear that falls into sweat
bring it on
Your words are full of jealousy
when you say that you could’ve done this too
Get your ass off the couch and feel
what it’s like to work like me
Bring it on, bring it on
I can take it all
every hit
but I will never fall
Bring it on
I will face it all
Every tear that falls into sweat
bring it on
Bring it on
What you’re waiting for
when you were just trying to make me crawl
Bring it on
I am up to receive
what is your objection to me
bring it on
If there’s a choice to decide what to do
why waste time on pleasing?
Bring it on, bring it on
I can take it all
every hit
but I will never fall
Bring it on
I will face it all
Every tear that falls into sweat
bring it on
Bring it on
What you’re waiting for
when you were just trying to make me crawl
Bring it on
I am up to receive
what is your objection to me
bring it on
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Aleksi Mäkelä & Mikko Kujanpää
This is the end of one era
Your reign will be over tonight
I’ve seen you as a demon
Doing the work of the evil
And I’ve heard you laughing
Felt all the rusty nails biting
Face to face your kindness nearly shine
behind that filthy smile there’s always a lie
Beware
We have evidence that prove you wrong
Beware
We won’t let you fool us anymore
Beware
You play the victim, sneaking and defrauding
like you always do
We demand justice
We’ll bring you to book
All your terrible deeds will be revealed
The background troops are here, the revolution is near
Beware
We have evidence that prove you wrong
Beware
We won’t let you fool us anymore
Beware
You’ll need to face the things you’d left behind
Beware
There will be a riot in the crowd
Beware
Riot!
Riot!
Riot!
Riot in the crowd!
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Ahonen & Mikko Kujanpää
When I least expect
they appear again
to follow like shadows
Hallusinations of their hands around my throat
they put pressure on and they won’t let go
They’re seeking all the time
like treasure hunters try to find a hidden prize
Whenever I would need some help or I’m in an emergency
I hear them just asking
Where is the gold, where is the gold
Where is the gold, where is the gold
They’re trying to profit
of what I have built
They collect the winnings
They only care when I have something valuable in my hands
Why they won’t let go
They’re seeking all the time
like treasure hunters try to find a hidden prize
Whenever I would need some help or I’m in an emergency
I hear them just asking
Where is the gold, where is the gold
Where is the gold, where is the gold
How to identify
Who really stands by
and supports you even when life hits you hard
They’re seeking all the time
like treasure hunters try to find a hidden prize
Whenever I would need some help
or I’m in an emergency
I hear them just asking
Where is the gold, where is the gold
Where is the gold, where is the gold
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
It’s so complicated to keep
all these feelings inside of me
I’m not as brave as I seem
It’s so hard to breathe freely
Always waiting for
my mindset to transform
Avoidance only makes me weary
I want to break free
Lift me up and take me higher
above desolate reality
Help me to forget all of my regrets
Help me get rid of useless tears
Lift me up
I know it’s you who can lead me through this gloom
Show me what is your point of view
I want to learn all about you
So lift me up
Lift me up
I admire how you see
something good in everything
You won’t run away even if
you would see my weaknesses
Always waiting for
us to be something more
Life without you is so dreary
I want to break free
Lift me up and take me higher
above desolate reality
Tell me how can I let go of my pride
Tell me how to end the fear of life
Lift me up
I know it’s you who can lead me through this gloom
Show me what is your point of view
I want to learn all about you
So lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
I know it’s you who can lead me through this gloom
Show me how to be more like you
I want to learn to be as good
Lift me up and take me higher
above desolate reality
Will you run away or will you stay
if I open myself up and say
Lift me up
I know it’s you who can lead me through this gloom
Show me what is your point of view
I want to learn all about you
So lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
Who is that lying on my bed?
She looks so hopeless and distant
with her eyes glazed like ice
It’s hard to recognize that face
that used belong to me
What took away the joy of her smile?
I’m tired of crying
but it doesn’t help me fall asleep
my heart is pounding
and every time I try to close my eyes the nightmares about falling down
are shaking me awake
The feeling of irrelevance
has paralyzed her and she can’t
move herself, it’s like a spell
No one can hear the voice of tears
if there are no ears to hear
Alone she tries to cope with no hope
I’m tired of crying
but it doesn’t help me fall asleep
my heart is pounding
and every time I try to close my eyes the nightmares about falling down
are shaking me awake
I see myself as a dead body
with a heart that’s trying to revive itself
I’m tired of crying
but it doesn’t help me fall asleep
my heart is pounding, my heart is pounding
I’m tired of crying
but it doesn’t help me fall asleep
my heart is pounding
and every time I try to close my eyes the nightmares about falling down
are shaking me awake
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Ahonen & Mikko Kujanpää
How did we get lost
We thought the route was clear to follow
I’m speaking to the walls
’cause I don’t get the answers from you
We don’t need to give up
We have to open our hearts
Talk to me I’ll listen to
what you have in your mind
and what you’re trying to hide
Save me from being wrong
and the riddles I can’t solve
I’m not a mind reader
How could we forget
what we had promised each other
Why it’s so hard to speak
We’re on the same side, aren’t we?
Talk to me I’ll listen to
what you have in your mind
and what you’re trying to hide
Save me from being wrong
and the riddles I can’t solve
I’m not a mind reader
Talk to me I’ll listen to
what you have in your mind
and what you’re trying to hide
Save me from being wrong
and the riddles I can’t solve
I’m not a mind reader
I’m not a mind reader
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Aleksi Mäkelä & Mikko Kujanpää
Welcome to the ferris wheel and carousel
or you can ride on the roller coaster
There’s only one rule that no one tells
Once you get in you can never get out
Haunted house and evil clowns
this was supposed to be
an amusement park
Another round, where is the fun?
every spin in this carousel
makes me feel worse
Why am I still here?
I’ll soon burst into tears
When I was a child
I thought that I was flawed and odd
when I was anxious about all the fun others did
but still I followed them
because no one told me that the joy of one is not the joy of all
and now, I don’t know where I’m heading
I stand in front of distorting mirrors
and I no longer know which image is real
I don’t want to be a faceless doll
which will be forgotten in the toy box
How do I free myself from these safety harnesses and flee out of her
Where can I find an exit sign?
Haunted house and evil clowns
this was supposed to be
an amusement park
Another round, where is the fun?
every spin in this carousel
makes me feel worse
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää & Aleksi Mäkelä
Look at yourself
Are you proud of your creation?
Think of all the times they would’ve needed you
and you weren’t there
You’ll end up alone
if you carry on this show
This empty room keeps me awake by screaming violent whispers
They’re haunting me with all their needs. They remind me of all the forgotten deeds
The words I say, the moves I make are like from a screenplay
I found myself thinking about my choices and everything I had to give up
I have given away everything to build this house of cards
it can easily be overthrown by a small mistake
How can I still believe in fairytale which is too good to be true
Can I stand the blow when I’ll face the raw reality
How to rely on an unstable mind
if I chose wrong, is it hard to let go?
Always between the slope and the gorge
How can I see what is the right road
I might move on or run into a wall
No guarantees. This is a free fall
No one ever talks about the ransom of creativity
I haven’t let anyone come too close
So, I’m accused of being as cold as a stone
I’m tired of explaining myself (be)cause I know that it will end
in complaining about what I have said and done
I can’t blame those who have left me alone
I know, silver is not as heavy as gold
I chose this way of life and I will pay the highest price for it
How can I prove that I ain’t heartless
Even if I’m not there it doesn’t mean that I don’t care
I always had a bad conscience about what I’ve done
When trying to fit in a mold that has been designed for me
I fear that my perception of myself will be distorted
Somehow it has always been me who had to be understanding
Get along with the thought that how I see the world is wrong
I can’t ever get others to accept the fact that I just can not change myself
It’s like gambling, all or nothing. There is no golden mean.
I’ve been chasing blindly what is the most important thing for me and I can’t live without of it
I have given away everything to build this house of cards
it can easily be overthrown by a small mistake
How can I still believe in fairytale which is too good to be true
Can I stand the blow when I’ll face the raw reality
How to rely on an unstable mind
if I chose wrong, is it hard to let go?
Always between the slope and the gorge
How can I see what is the right road
I might move on or run into a wall
No guarantees. This is a free fall
How to rely on an unstable mind
if I chose wrong, is it hard to let go?

Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen & Aapo Timonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
Don’t stop, keep going. Expectations must be filled
and the clock is ticking while you’re wasting your life for others
There’s always someone who has a problem to be solved
and you do all the favors because you don’t know the word “no”
Time is running out
I want to hear you shout
Now it’s your turn to show the world
Time is running out
Life is here and now
It is your moment to be heard
No one will ever learn if you don’t make it clear
There’s the right to refuse. Don’t always do as you are assumed
Dare to let go of those who tries to slow you down
Why to hide your abilities if you got something to show
Time is running out
I want to hear you shout
Now it’s your turn to show the world
Time is running out
Life is here and now
It’s your moment to be heard
There is no excuse and nothing to lose
Go where you haven’t been before
Say the things unsaid. Then you don’t regret.
Now it’s your turn to show the world
If you got something to show then let them know
Time is running out
I want to hear you shout
Now it’s your turn to show the world
Time is running out
Life is here and now
It’s your moment to be heard
There is no excuse and nothing to lose
Go where you haven’t been before
Say the things unsaid. Then you don’t regret.
Now it’s your turn to show the world
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
They always start to hate whatever we create
They try to get us down by sowing seeds of doubt
They are like parasites which try to break our minds
creatures on our road destroying all our hopes
They think that they have the right to mock and criticize
Like shadows they follow never leaves us alone
They say we must give up because we are not enough
Where goes the limit of how much we can tolerate
Now, we are getting close to it
We must try harder so we can get us further
and all the failures will only make us stronger
We will show that giving up is not an option
We’ll do what is needed to make them believe it
In the end they’ll see what remains
If we try harder we can get us further than ever before
What should we believe in?
Who is our enemy?
It’s hard to say when mind is full of fucking lies
But if we follow our feelings instead of the fearing
We’ll be able to do what is meaningful
for ourselves and for all of them
We must try harder so we can get us further
and all the failures will only make us stronger
We will show that giving up is not an option
We’ll do what is needed to make them believe it
In the end they’ll see what remains
If we try harder we can get us further than ever before
Harder!
Further!
Stronger!
We must try harder so we can get us further
and all the failures will only make us stronger
We will show that giving up is not an option
We’ll do what is needed to make them believe it
In the end they’ll see what remains
If we try harder we can get us further than ever before
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I’m just a fragile memory
of the person who I used to be
I fear that you won’t understand
if I’m too tired to care right now
Hold me at least for this one night
Hold me for a while and everything will be fine
If I need more time to heal
Will you wait for me?
If my heritage is too dark
Will you get scared or help me find the pieces and build me up
Hold me at least tonight so I can feel for a while
that everything is fine
If I will need more time to heal
Will you wait for me?
Hold me at least for a while
with you all seems so clear and right
I will need more time to heal
Hold me at least for this one night
Hold me for a while and everything is fine
If I will need more time to heal
Will you wait for me?
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen & Mikko Kujanpää, Composition by Aleksi Mäkelä
These days have gone so fast that I can’t understand
We’ve just met but it’s like I’ve known you for years
The more we speak, the more I’m attracted to you
It’s fascinating how passionate you are and I am
dreaming of a more permissive world
and I am dreaming of a love that is not hidden
I am dreaming of a life without pretending and
even though they may not see things like I do
I can not keep myself from dreaming
We’ll face resistance from those who love us the most
They’re only scared about the things they don’t know
That’s why we keep the secret only to ourselves
I hope someday they will accept us.
Till then, I keep on…
dreaming of a more permissive world
and I am dreaming of a love that is not hidden
I am dreaming of a life without pretending and
I know they can’t resist forever
dreaming of a more permissive world
and I am dreaming of a love that is not hidden
I am dreaming of a life without pretending and
Even though they may not see things like I do
I cannot keep myself from dreaming

Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I try to keep the wound clean
so that it could heal
I don’t want to use patches
‘cause they just hide the scars
I’m tired of being hurt
and I believe that you are too
Now that we’ve had time to breathe
Would you try again with me
I wanna feel, wanna see what we could have been (could have been)
Part of me still believes in a fantasy about you and me
My history prevents me
from trying, trying, trying, trying
I choose to live with the pain because
loneliness will hurt more
I’ve heard that memories
grow sweeter with time
It is easier to return
than to face the unknown
I wanna feel, wanna see what we could have been (could have been)
Not a clue what to do, now that I am without you
Maybe we should give us another shot
to remember what we have forgot
I wanna feel, wanna see what we could have been (could have been)
Not a clue what to do, now that I am without you
Maybe we should give us another shot
to remember what we have forgot
I wanna feel, wanna see what we could have been (could have been)
Part of me still believes in a fantasy about you and me
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
Illusion is an impression of reality
It may seem real but underneath the shell is a core that won’t be shown
Illusion depends on our point of view
we pick the features we like to reinforce our beliefs
Maybe we are denying the truth
We don’t want to know if it means that our intuition is wrong
It is easier to live in the illusion so we don’t have to face disillusionment
Have we lost our ability to control our mind?
Time after time repeating the same behavior never questioning why
Are we just slaves of our ways
How to let go of the memories that create uncertainty
How to learn to trust if the previous life doesn’t give a reason for it
If we define everything according to the past
how can we not change our habits even though
we know that we’ll face disillusionment again
How to let go of the memories that create uncertainty
How to learn to trust if the previous life doesn’t give a reason for it
If we define everything according to the past
Then we give up the possibility for the things that might last
How to let go of the memories that create uncertainty
How to learn to trust if the previous life doesn’t give a reason for it
If we define everything according to the past
We don’t give a chance for the things that might last
and we will have to face disillusionment again
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
There is a lot to pay back for
This dissipation has led us into this state
and we have made a lot of promises, too hard to keep.
It seems that we don’t have the means to break our beloved chains
Turn our course towards calmer waters
Change our path before it’s too late for us
Turn our course towards calmer waters
See, this could be the moment to tempt our fate
This is our one and only home
And right now, may be the last chance to make a stand
Is there a way to put an end to these mad scenes
I wonder if there’s still time or have we reached the point of no return
(Turn) our course is lost. Don’t know how the future unfolds
Turn our path before it’s too late for us
Turn our course towards calmer waters
See, this could be the moment to tempt our fate
Freedom is not a reason
to ignore our part in this faulty system
Turn our course before it’s too late for
We reach for the sky beyond the point of no return
(Turn) our course is lost. Don’t know how the future unfolds
Turn our path before it’s too late for us
Turn our course towards calmer waters
See, this could be the moment to tempt our fate
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I’m the headline on a magazine
A clear message written in black ink
Obscurity, it is not me
You’re like a painting on the wall
No one can tell what you’re about
That’s how you make me curious
No more, no more innocence
No more hiding in the shells
I heard that rumors go around
Therefore, we should be found
Take me with you, take me anywhere
They can talk about us, I don’t care
Why am I concealing what I feel
I need to know what we could be
I won’t give up, I’ll take a hit
I’m ready to go for it
This mystery is disturbing me
I am obsessed with a fantasy
The more I get, the more I need
No more lies and secrecy
I can feel our chemistry
I won’t stay here and pretend
If so, this will never end
Take me with you, take me anywhere
They can talk about us, I don’t care
Why am I concealing what I feel
I need to know what we could be
I won’t give up, I’ll take a hit
I’m ready to go for it
The front page of the magazine
Is filled of our history
And waiting for its release
I know it will be a relief
Take me with you, take me anywhere
They can talk about us, I don’t care
Why am I concealing what I feel
I need to know what we could be
I won’t give up, I’ll take a hit
I’m ready to go for it
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I have my will and I have both feet on the ground
I believe in my dreams and I’m keeping my head in the clouds
Now I see all the options and they are in my hands
Why I still hesitate, I’ve had plenty of time to decide
I hear the final call from the radio. I need to make up my mind now
Either run or stay, it doesn’t matter, when I can say that I had unbelievable time
Where is that place which I have tried so hard to find
It can be anywhere or I might have been already there
I don’t need clear directions even if I’m lost
Anywhere I will go, can be the place where I belong
I hear the final call from the radio. I need to make up my mind now
Waiting for the sign, I am standing here on the line
Then I suddenly hear the
final call from the radio. I need to make up my mind now
Either run or stay, it doesn’t matter, when I can say that I had unbelievable time
Left or right or wrong, yes or no
Should I go with the flow, I don’t know
Possibilities will open up for me
If I just dare to let go
Final call from the radio
Final call from the radio. I need to make up my mind now
Either run or stay, it doesn’t matter, when I can say that I had unbelievable time
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
Can you read the story from the spins and circles of her dance?
Her face is blank when she tries to hold back tears and be brave
No one is there for her when she needs it most
She might look peaceful but inside her a storm is raging
She maintains her facade unshaken?
But when she dances, her heavy thoughts will fade away
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
Can you read the story from the spins and circles of her dance?
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
She’s broken inside, the sweet ballerina
No one knows how she sees the world but it’s never too late
She can still make her future look brighter
And when she dances, she can leave her tears behind
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
Can you read the story from the spins and circles of her dance?
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
She’s fearless to fight, the sweet ballerina
And when she dances, she has the force to make a change
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
She’s fearless to fight, the sweet ballerina
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
Can you read the story from the spins and circles of her dance?
Can you see the beauty of the ballerina?
She’s a survivor, the sweet ballerina
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
When the morning comes the sun will melt the frost from the windowpane
Why I’m here again, when I should be somewhere else
I have this dream which I know I can’t reach in reality
I should leave this all behind but I can’t keep it out of my mind
The truth dawns on me
Only through the night, I’m alive
When I’m dreaming this all seems so right and true
But I know it is wrong and a lie
I’m almost reaching you, don’t wake me up
There’s no way to be with you
But I can’t be without anymore
What if I make a change and break the glass in-between us?
Would it bring me the warmth or freeze you too?
The closer I am to you; it unclears my vision even more
I have spent this whole night watching you from the other side
I can be with you
Only through the night
I’m alive
When I’m dreaming this all seems so right and true
but I know, it is wrong and a lie
I’m almost reaching you, don’t wake me up
There’s no way to be with you
but I can’t be without anymore
I need to do the decision soon
even though it’s not possible
to be with or without you
with or without you
Through the night, I’m alive
When I’m dreaming this all seems so right. I hope
that we will have a chance
No, I can not
Give up now when I’m so close to you
And I know that we have a chance
I’m almost reaching you, now wake me up
I just can’t stay here and wait
Anymore
I’m almost reaching you, there must be a way to be with you
‘Cause I can’t carry on without you anymore
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
I have wondered all these years
What’s the reason for my fear?
Why is it hard to let go of my past?
I have been easy to use
done as I’m supposed to do
I didn’t realize it was bad for me
Now it’s time for a change
I need to learn to live the life which I deserve
I want to see how far
I can go on my own
I am more than you will ever know
Don’t try to pull me down
You are less than you will ever want to show
I have felt the silent violence
and know the means to fight against it
Now the pain that was inside of me is gone
Once I reach something, I hear
the sound of envy in my ears
whispering that I should disappear
I remember what you said
about me to all your friends
Those are things that I hope you regret
Every night and every single day
I thought my pain makes me insane
and no one knows about it
I don’t want to feel that all again
I am more than you will ever know
Don’t try to pull me down
You are less than you will ever want to show
I have felt the silent violence
and know the means to fight against it
Now the pain that was inside of me is gone
“It can’t hurt if you don’t bleed”, you said to me
I hope you’ll understand how much you took
from me
When the time is right, I see
where to go, what to believe
I have found a whole new part of me
I am more than you will ever know
Don’t try to pull me down,
You are less than you will ever want to show
I have felt the silent violence
and know the means to fight against it
Now the pain that was inside of me is gone
Lyrics by Johanna Ahonen, Composition by Mikko Kujanpää
All these years, we have pretended
that we won’t be torn apart
Painful is the truth that we are hiding
you ask if I want to give it up
I could but I never stop
Trying to solve things
I will prove this to you
We’re not alone
There is always someone who has gone
through this same war, so please
take a change and I will show
that you are not alone
I’m with you till the end
What’s the point of being so silent,
When we both know something worries us
Where can we find the trust?
We have played this awful scene far too long
We’re not alone
There is always someone who has gone
Through this same war, be brave
take a change and I will show
that you are not alone
I’m with you till the end
You are the reason why
I can’t be me whole time
I am the reason why you’re so exhausted
Is there some plan for us
or will we turn into dust
We’re not alone
We just need to find our way back home
Figure out what’s gone
What is right for us and then move on
So what if we are wrong in this game
There will be another day
Nothing in this world is secure
The only thing of which I’m sure
is that you are not alone
I’m with you till the end
