Amorphis - Tuonela : Tuonela
 

Amorphis



Tuonela



Tuonela





Sorrow is my bread



And tears I drink as wine



Oblivion my happiness



Ground under teeth of time







For cold be the stone



When frost ve devoured the land



Consolation is no gift



Of winter's icy hand







Chorus:



Upon a crust of snow



I'll lay my broken frame



What steel and iron won't take



I'll give in winter's name



No good a sullen sout no use a simple knave



No groom for brides of plaited hair



This man old and lame







If only I could breathe



To see the sun of may



but still longer are the nigths than days



As I wither away







Came the man of crown



With sound of war drums beat



Said no sword arm's strong enough



Without my two good feet







Chorus







But not overlooked am I



In eyes of the maid I'll wed



I'll reap the crops of Tuonela



My bride's wealth in death
