Sun, don't burn out

Jaakko is breathing deeply in a cafeteria
He's afraid of Word War 3
Spring is pushing out a comforting sprout
There's people around who you barely know
 
Jukka would drink too much even though he shouldn't
He borrows money but he always pays back
A group of teenagers don't have a lesson
They are discussing with enthusiasm
 
A couple is arguing at the corner table
If you still don't know how the song continues from here on
But I do
 
Everyone has big dreams, everyone has big fears
Wars, unemployment and climate
Festival season is about to begin, it's time to buy tickets soon
Ilosaari 1 was sold out already
Sun, don't burn out
Sun, don't burn out
 
'Do superheroes cry', Jaakko is wondering with hand on his cheek
He's looking out for the tenth time
Truth is found but elsewhere
 
At the smoking corner there's Ari, the leader of the place
He's talking with Petteri about Rolling Stones
(well I think that Exile on Main St is
clearly their best album)
 
Everyone has big dreams, everyone has big fears
Wars, unemployment and climate
Festival season is about to begin, it's time to buy tickets soon
Ilosaari was sold out already
 
Everyone has big dreams, everyone has big fears
Wars, unemployment and climate
Festival season is about to begin, it's time to buy tickets soon
Ilosaari was sold out already
Sun, don't burn out
 
At the corner table Jukka is trying to calm down the argument
(it's a mistake)
If you still don't know how the song continues from here on
But I do
 
Everyone has big dreams, everyone has big fears
Wars, unemployment and climate
Three weeks until the beginning of vacation
Getting rid of virginity, do you hit the jackpot of a weekday
 
Everyone has big dreams, everyone has big fears
 
Festival season is about to begin, it's time to buy tickets soon
Ilosaari was sold out already
Sun, don't burn out
Sun, don't burn out
Sun, don't burn out
Sun, don't burn out

Heart Beating Greedily

The rocky back of the city
Sounds of a few taxis
Expectations circulating in blood
We rise up to the mountains
Somebody forgot First of May there
Streamers fluttering in the wind
 
We are old acquaintances
But I can't help noticing
That something has changed
Maybe it's tonight
Maybe in your steps
There's new certainty brought by the passing of time
 
When you look from above
All the houses appear small
And like sweet nests of happiness
 
I know that it isn't
The whole truth about life
But it feels good
To believe in it for a moment
There's already the delicate morning light
Glitter-colored sky
Mist on shoulders
Heart beating greedily
 
I take you home
You dial in the door code
It must be close to 5 o'clock
Your last gaze is
Long, and do I read it right
If I say that it's inquiring
 
When you look from above
All the houses appear small
And like sweet nests of happiness
 
I know that it isn't
The whole truth about life
But it feels good
To believe in it for a moment
There's already the delicate morning light
Glitter-colored sky
Mist on shoulders
Heart beating greedily
 
I know that it isn't
The whole truth about life
But it feels good
To believe in it for a moment
There's already the delicate morning light
Glitter-colored sky
Mist on shoulders
Heart beating greedily
Heart beating greedily
 

Souvenirs

That genius who thinks
That a happy man is
Always happy
Is unbelievably stupid
Life is a series
Series of sorrows too
And the one who is afraid of that
Will stay on the shelf and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
Just like souvenirs
Will stay on the shelf and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
That observant one who finds
A woman without scars (*)
Has found a machine
And what to do with it
You can turn it on
And watch it do
Feminine things
And then when you get bored with it
You can turn it off
You can turn it off
That wise one who will discover
A formula for love
Will be considerably rich
And frustrated soon
Life is a series
Series of surprises
The one who is afraid of that
Will stay inside and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
Just like souvenirs
Will stay inside and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
Your uncompromising personality
Might have been an obstacle
In front of success
Is parties of pushers
Your stubborn personality
Might have been a nuisance
But it is a gift
You can't return it
It's like souvenirs
That wise one who will discover
A formula for love
Will be considerably rich
And frustrated soon
Life is a series
Series of surprises
The one who is afraid of that
Will stay inside and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
Just like souvenirs
Stays inside and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
Just like souvenirs
Stays inside and becomes covered by dust
Just like souvenirs
 

Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful

[Verse 1]
I think about the small of your back,
Curve that's worth of million dollars
I think about your eyes, I think about your mouth
Together we go towards the autumn
Is is the sixth or the loveliest
I still want you so bad
It hurts
 
[Chorus]
It gives me comfort that you are
the only one for me
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
You make me believe that tomorrow
is as big as tomorrow should be
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
 
[Verse 2]
The days with you are made of moments
That are impossible to replicate
With my other hand I'm reaching for the youth
How to grow old gracefully
Is it possible
With you, it is
 
[Chorus]
It gives me comfort that you are
the only one for me
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
You make me believe that tomorrow
is as big as tomorrow should be
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
 
[Verse 3]
It would be great if I had pretty children
But I think I won't
The one I have, I know so poorly
I don't always know about his/her dreams
I will look into your eyes if I can
And swear I will never betray you
You take my hand
I feel your warmth
The heaven is close now
 
[Chorus]
It gives me comfort that you are
the only one for me
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
You make me believe that tomorrow
is as big as tomorrow should be
Difficult, demanding, easy and beautiful
 

Made of Air

When before the Spring there is a long
Phase that depresses you
Then take your warmest coat
And a scar and cut the darkness in half
 
I will meet you
you will see me from afar, you will recognize my hat
you will hug me
you will start coming back to life
 
We were each other's youth
We were each other's adulthood
Deconstructively hard adulthood
We are made of air
 
Near the park there is a wooden sign
That is smeary
You want to photograph it
Could I promise you that I won't laugh
 
We were each other's youth
We are each other's adulthood
Deconstructively hard adulthood
We are made of air
 
We are each other's memory
We are part of each other's sorrow
Sorrow that becomes happiness
We are made of air
 
Joy and worry
The triumph of unfamiliarity
Of the previous Summer
Each other's boundaries
 
Light in the park
There are spaces between branches
Ice on the bench
But we sit still
 
If there is a dam missing
A stone it's the best
To run and fast
 
If you take care of me
I'll take care of you
And the life will take care of us
 
We were each other's youth
We are each other's adulthood
Deconstructively hard adulthood
We are made of air
 
We are each other's memory
We are part of each other's sorrow
Sorrow that becomes happiness
We are made of air
We are made of air
We are made of air
