TIMO TOLKKI LYRICS

1. Intro

2. Key To The Universe

Another day is passing by
Nothing feels the same anymore
I see it clear without fear
Complete order in my life
As I look into the blue sky
I feel so much alive
I have never felt like this before

We are the same everywhere
We just want to be loved
We are confused, we are scared
Still we have to find our own way
Life's not always very easy
There are times when it all feels black
But I tell you there is always a way

And the key to the universe is love
And this key could free the mankind
Trust yourself
The voice within will guide you on your path of life
The key to the universe is love

3. Now I Understand

Looking inside of myself
I feel the rainbow of emotions
Running wild in an open sea
Garden of my soul
Icy cage of my heart
Golden key which opens
The way to the paradise

So far away yet so close
Lies the cradle of my freedom

Every step I take
Every move I make
Finally, now I understand

Everything is clear
There is no more fear
Finally, now I understand

Seeds that I'm planting today
Will be the fruits that
I will pick up tomorrow in my life
It is not easy to change
Courage and wisdom are my partners
Sailing on the sea of eternity

4. Devine

Innocence, light and beauty
Softness of angel of mercy
Serenity of a summer day that's what you are
Dewdrop of autumn morning
Divine

When I look into your eyes
I see a universe of colours
Awakening of life in a spring afternoon
Snow diamond of a winter night
Divine

5. Little Boy I Miss You

Little boy I miss you
The ice is slowly melting from your heart
Little boy oh how I've missed you
Take my hand and we will never be apart

The taste of ice cream on the first summer day
The smell of cut grass, remember that?

Little boy I miss you
Come to the light and feel the sun
Little boy oh how I've missed you
You used to play into the night and have fun

In the jungle of rules you have found your way
What happened was never you fault

Nobody ever told you that there are
More colours than black and white
Let me show you a new world
Where you don't have to be afraid
I owe that to you, little boy

Nobody ever told you that there are
More colours than black and white
Let me show you a new world
Where you don't have to be afraid
Let me be there for you every day

In this world where everybody's gone insane
You are told what you can do and who you are
Follow me and I will show you a way out from madness
I owe that to you, little boy

Little boy I'm here for you
You can breathe again and feel the life
Little boy I'll always be there for you
Come to the light and feel the sun

6. I Believe

I believe that mankind is blind to the truth
All hypocrites, mental terrorists and bigots rule the world
I believe, that I believe

I believe that we have lost joy completely
We are out of touch with our feelings and don't know the way
I believe, that I believe

I don't need a bible to tell me how to live
I don't need your advice I got to find my own way

I believe in me and the universe
I believe that life can be beautiful
And that I have the right to be here
I believe

I don't need the plastic god of the church to show the way
I don't want to be controlled, I have my own words to say

7. Are You The One

Are you the one?
The traveller in time who has come
To heal my wounds to lead me to the sun
To walk this path with me until the end of time

Are you the one?
Who sparkles in the night like fireflies
Eternity of evening sky
Facing the morning eye to eye

Are you the one?
Who'd share this life with me
Who'd dive into the sea with me
Are you the one?
Who's had enough of pain
And doesn't wish to feel the shame, anymore
Are you the one?

Are you the one?
Who's love is like a flower that needs rain
To wash away the feeling of pain
Which sometimes can lead to the chain of fear
Are you the one?

To walk with me in garden of stars
The universe, the galaxies and Mars
The supernova of our love is true

8. Father

The smell of your breath, it makes me sick
Your naked body lying on the floor
I want to kill you but you did it yourself
You killed my innocence
You drunken fuck
I hate you
I piss on your grave and curse your memory

I was always there in the family hell
I was in your way and you hit me
You cut your wrists and jumped from the 4th floor
I was the last one who saw you alive
I hate you
I damage you
I bury you
I kill you

I wish you would have been there to watch me grow
Guiding me with wisdom, love and patience
Telling me that you love me and showing it to me
Making this world a safe place to be

You hurt me so much that I don't know if I'm ever gonna be whole
But I want you to know that I'm gonna try
Still after all that you did I miss you
And the rose and the letter that I brought to your grave
Tells you about my longing

So I say goodbye to you now after 23 years
You were just a moment of my life and I got to continue
Maybe one day I will be able to forgive you
Until then goodbye

9. Fresh Blue Wather

I'm sitting in this sleazy hotel room
Somewhere along the rocky road of doom
Looking back at my life and wondering what went wrong
Trying to turn these feelings into a song

I guess I've always been some kind of a fake
And sometimes I do feel like a flake
But I see where I have come from so clear
And the weight that I've been carrying many years

Fresh blue waters cleanse me
Give me wisdom and help me find the key
In the lap of the sea I'm free
And the future will be better than the past
I have learned from my mistakes and that will last

It's unbelievable how I did lie
To myself but at least now I know why
I'm so sorry for some things that I have done
I want to make it up and feel the sun

10. Dear God

Why is the sky so blue?
Why are the trees so green?
Why clouds exist?

Where did all this come from?
The nature, planets, universe
It makes me wonder

The things that I see and feel are they real?
It's so hard for me to comprehend what life is all about
In the middle of the chaos where's the truth?
Tell that to me dear god

Am I just your puppet or
Do I have a will of my own?
I'm asking now

And tell me why a four year old dies in cancer?
Please explain that to me

What's the reason for all this suffering?
Did you just fuck things up
Or are you there at all?
Why would we need you anyway?
Tell that to me dear god

Maybe all this is in vain
You're not there so I create my own world
I leave all bullshit to you
I don't try to save the world anymore
Do you hear me you fuck?
Give me some answers and stop hiding!
Am I just an air molecule to you?
What are we to you? Just ants?
What are we doing here?

11. It's Xmas Morning

It's Xmas morning
The snow is falling silently from the purple sky
Little Tim is waiting for the evening
When Santa will bring those presents

But more than presents he'd wish for peace
He'd wish for safety and understanding
That there would be no more fights
That there would be no more fear
It's Xmas morning

It's Xmas evening
And I am wondering when and how did we lose the way
Christ doesn't feed the multitudes no more
God is hiding in details

Sick society maximizing the production and the profit
Alcoholic father abusing his family driving them out
It's Xmas evening

The guns blazing message of peace
The plastic holiness fills the world
We have lost the way

It's Xmas night
And I am writing in the warmth of my cozy home
I understand how lucky I am
I say my prayers and go to sleep
It's Xmas night

12. Hymn To Life

Sitting here and wondering, watching the seasons going by
Each new answer just brings ten new questions
My eyes have finally opened
Armored human wrecks walking the streets
Longing for a leader to take away their pain
We have not learned anything

Let me live another day
Without sorrow, without shame
Let me feel the wind on my face
Let me feel the sun
And live my days with fun
Let me sing this hymn to life

Molesting and incest
Unloving parents feeding the oven of madness known as planet earth
Love turns into prostitution
Embracing into violence
Lovemaking into fucking
Greed kills our humanity, morality our natural needs
Jealousy kills the friendship

I'm sorry but I don't want to be an Emperor - that's not my business - I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should
like to help everyone if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another, human beings are like
that.

We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In
this world there is room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.

The way of life can be free and beautiful.

But we have lost the way.

Greed has poisoned men's souls - has barricaded the world with hate; has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.

We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in: machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge
has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little: More than machinery we need
humanity; More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will
be lost.

The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness
in men, cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the
world, millions of despairing men, women and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison
innocent people. To those who can hear me I say "Do not despair".

The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress: the
hate of men will pass and dictators die, and the power they took from the people, will return to the people and so long as
men die, liberty will never perish...

Soldiers - don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you - who regiment your lives, tell you what to
do, what to think and what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder!

Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You
are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate - only the unloved hate - the
unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers - don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty!

In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written "the kingdom of God is within man" - not one man, nor a group of men
- but in all men - in you! You the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness! You
the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure! Then in the name of
democracy let us use that power - let us all unite!!! Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a
chance to work, that will give you the future and old age and security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to
power, but they lie! They do not fulfil their promise, they never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the
people! Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, to do
away with greed, with hate and intolerance! Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead
to all men's happiness.

Soldiers - in the name of democracy, let us all unite!!!

[Speech by Charlie (Charles) Chaplin (1889-1977) from "The Great Dictator" movie (1940)]
