1. Stone Cold Soul
(Music & lyrics: Janne)
I'm wearing a long black overcoat, a grey knitted cap
And I have a walking stick
Don't care who you are but you know me
You call me "Mr. Death"
My ambition is to destroy all the kids
Cos they are so malicious
Screaming little bastards just fooling around
But they sure look delicious
Delicious
Sugar Daddy's here to stay
Gonna take your kids away
I'm the course of your weakened health
No use calling help
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - eruption
Stone ColdI want more - emotion
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - destruction
Stone coldReal hard core - devotion
Little children playing in their playground
No one watches over them, Sugar Daddy sneaks around
There's no one I can't corrupt
I've bought politicians and the police
Privilege to hunt in the shadows
And catch my colours the way I please
The way I please
I'm even sweeter than cream
But I'll make your children scream
You won't see me on the TV screen
I'm real, nasty and mean
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - eruption
Stone ColdI want more - emotion
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - destruction
Stone coldReal hard core - devotion
leads: Roope, Nirri, Roope, Nirri
Aggressive needs are very hard to satisfy
Enjoy torturing kids and seeing them die
Depressive deeds, and you say this is just a lie
Lock up your kids or kiss them goodbye
I'm here to stay
Gonna take your kids away
You won't see me on the TV screen
I'm real, nasty and mean
lead: Nirri
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - eruption
Stone ColdI want more - emotion
Stone ColdStone Cold Soul - destruction
Stone coldReal hard core - devotion
2. Another Morning
(Music: Roope, lyrics: Janne)
Another morning, sunbeams are boiling my head
I wake up to throw up my yesterday
Too late, can't get out of the bed
This is where I'm gonna stay
Oh shit, now it's all over the place, yellow vomit keeps on flowing
This again, my mouth is big as my face, upstairs calling?
What have I done, to deserve this, did I even have fun?
Last night, can't remember a thing, guess we had a really good time
Yesterday, nothing was boring, today, nothing's fine
Colours on the wall, see them reaching for me
But if I close my eyes, hear the darkness so fucking loud
Pressure in my head, the hammers working hard
And my stomach is rolling like an overspreading spin driver
leads: Roope, Nirri
I had it, I'll rip my filthy body up, or what is left of it
No sweat, few beers from a shop and I won't give a shit
What a wonderful day, I deserve to take a few more
And everything'll be great at least till tomorrow
3. White Worms
(Music & lyrics: Janne)
We're mean, totally out of control
That's the way it gotta be
We're dirt, worse than nuclear waste
Teaching kids the way down
Messages, evil lyrics put on a spell
Hungry sound, tempting your children to fall
We seduce kids into crimes, the good won't get caught
We lie, present immoral life, colours are hidden to the top
Nightmares, we'll make the worst one come true
Wet dreams, kids will sink in their beds
Slimy little bastards, fomenting false message
Spoiling this generation, we'd deserve to be punished
We're White Worms, biting your skin
Digging holes in your flesh
We're eating our way into your kids' brain
Fatal life is now to be served
Mortal man shouldn't taste the fruits of life
Cos they're full of
White Worms
Our noise paralyses their senses
Causes damage in the brain
Our fans, they can't be saved
They've failed in their lives
Glassy eyes, see us distorted but real
Easy to lead, violence is the answer to all needs
Slimy little bastards, fomenting false message
Spoiling this generation, we'd deserve to be punished
We're White Worms, biting your skin
Digging holes in your flesh
We're eating our way into your kids' brain
Fatal life is now to be served
Mortal man shouldn't taste the fruits of life
lead: Roope
Cos they're full of
White Worms
4. Empty Suit
(Music: Roope, lyrics: Janne)
A teenager is trying not to show the real him
Mysterious guys are the coolest ones
Won't look at even the best friends in the eyes
Scared of the thought, they could see through
Many years later he still is just pretending
Hiding something he has never found
Locked up from inside and the key is thrown away
Stranger to himself, lost inside
Counting - Years go by
Running - Out of time
Shining - The shine will die
Fading - Out of time
Black and white is all he sees
Colours, they are missing
Life is sometimes shades of grey
But colours he can never feel again
Behind the wall, thoughts of grey, one change, mind's decay
Empty suit, built on ice, one crack, end of lies
The goalline was crossed before he even got to start
Never knew when the time was right
Tried to hurry in everyplace but never got there in time
Now it's too late, the show is sold out
lead: Roope
The flame is 'bout to fade inside his little vacuum
No one will give him a hand
No one will hear him through
Counting - Years go by
Running - Out of time
Shining - The shine will die
Fading - Out of time
5. Spring
(Music: Roope & Janne, lyrics: Janne)
I can't bear this lightness of life
The first sunny day
Everything seems to work out even too easy
Succeed in what I choose to do now
My unwritten law
I always happen to be the best
Sunshine and a blue sky is making me feel well
I'm back in life again
White darkness is swept away
Deleted period of emptiness, it's all past now
Forgotten time
Gonna make a fresh start
Nature's growing into colours, I feel the same inside
I'm ready to be the best
Spring - The right time for a new competition
Win or go under - May the best man win
Sing - I won't sing in the rain anymore
Win or go under - The first prize is the sun
No reward for the second place
Gonna win my life
Consolation prize, a place in heaven
But that's afterlife life
And I'm only interested in being alive
lead: Roope
Spring - The right time for a new competition
Win or go under - May the best man win
Sing - I won't sing in the rain anymore
Win or go under - The first prize is the sun
lead: Nirri
Sunshine and a blue sky is making me feel
Things ain't what they seem
I'm getting cloudy inside
Trying to look like a certain winner but the feeling's gone
I'm falling behind
Stumbled over the second step
Nature's growing but I got stuck, I can't win my own life
But I won't loose my death
Goodbye
6. Storm inside the Calm
(Music: Roope & Janne, lyrics: Janne)
I'm stuck in this yellow room, four walls without a door
Sonic vibrations soar inside, don't attain the concrete core
Gloomy walls, standing tall, they've never smiled at me
Hear my questions, read my thoughts
But they don't understand
They want to see, into my kaleidoscope
They expect me, to be insane
They want to hear, the right answers
They reign in fear, but I won't change
Weirdo, psychopathic eyes, reflections of yesterday
Psycho, schizophrenic stare, there's storm inside the calm
What you get is what you deserve, life must be earned
What I got is more I deserve, the winds are turned
Force feeding my head with knowledge they know safe
Voices echo round my shell, yet, never passing the inmost maze
lead: Roope
Straight ahead, forward backwards, I'll always walk on
Cold walls can't prevent me from seeing the horizon
Weirdo, psychopathic eyes, reflections of yesterday
Psycho, schizophrenic stare, there's storm inside the calm
7. Ocean of Sand
(Music: Roope, lyrics: Janne)
Like a cold north wind I'll force you to drop your leaves
Whip your bark, rip off the ground
Like the burning sun I'll melt the frozen trunk
Arise back to life but then drain your veins
Like a black rain cloud I'll wrap you in the dark
Fill your veins again by pouring acid rain
World - Is turning clockwise
Moon - Is turned inside-out
Sun - The sun is upside-down
Like a twisted choir I'll howl in every slit
Even those who can't hear are afraid
Like a funeral pyre I'll awake respect and fear
Cos I eat every colour that comes in my way
World - Is turning clockwise
Moon - Is turned inside-out
Sun - The sun is upside-down
I burn the bridges behind me and ahead I blow my way clear
My ways are unknown, don't try to follow, my dear
lead: Roope
Like a low tide I'll draw you into deep water
No land can you reach
Your roots are taking you deeper
Trying to touch the ground
The bottom
Like polluted ground around your roots
I could suffocate you or let you swallow
The filth
Like north wind, burning sun, black rain cloud
Like low tide
lead: Nirri
World - Is turning clockwise
Moon - Is turned inside-out
Sun - The sun is upside-down
8. Meaning of Life
(Music & lyrics: Janne)
So, what is the meaning of life?
White crucifix or a sharp knife?
Seeking truth? Well seek it hard
And if you find it, send me a post card
Got a career, wear a tie, you want it all
There's nothing you can't buy
"I want my name written in stars
I wanna be the first man walking on Mars"
No - You'll never find the true meaning
Never - Cos you're looking for it inside of yourself
Take a walk in the street, listen to life
Can you hear its heart beat
Smell the raw, still rotten meat
Those people ain't the same you used to meet
Who might you be - A greedy servant seeking the truth
What do you see - I see me, do you know my daddy
Who might you be - Super freak alien from outer space
What do you see - See my big lie, worship me or die
Take an elevator through empty space
Buy yourself a shuttle and join the never-ending race
Take a subway to the center of earth
What on earth could be there, a show where
Mother Earth gives birth
You're getting tired of truth stuff
Besides, searching is rough
But have you sought from the right places
Don't give up yet, at least not now
Maybe your colours show up somehow
Have you even looked under the Bible
leads: Nirri, Roope
Ride your shuttle once more through space
Look outta window, see God's face?
Then perhaps, you'd understand the meaning
Out there, there's nothing for you to be seen
Instead of brain, you got a tiny bean
The further you go the nearer the truth you get
No truth I bet!
