Final Fortune
Helloween Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As if we knew the final score
And we pretend to know things better
In our madness we ignore
How small we are
We are
Far above this ignorance
Forever giving answers to the blind
When fate comes calling you
You don't know what to do
Behind the world we're living in
Is so much more than we do know
There«s ONE who loves you so
Behind the world we're living in
There«s so much more than we will ever get to know
Protecting nations, wealth and soldiers
Collecting fame and victory
Inventing star-ships, tanks and rockets
But still we don't know how to see
The love in our hearts
Our hearts
Far from all this ignorance
A higher force would share
Verity and hope
But we don't care
When fate comes calling you
You don't know what to do
Behind the world we're living in
Is so much more than we do know
There's ONE who loves you so
Behind the world we're living in
There's so much more than we will ever get to know
Helloween's "Final Fortune" is a song that reflects on humanity's arrogance and ignorance. The lyrics mention how we try to control our destiny, as if we know what the final outcome will be, and how we choose to ignore the fact that we are small beings. The line "How small we are" highlights the insignificance of humans compared to the vast universe. The song sighs at how we overlook the things that matter and focus on achieving petty things, like protecting nations, collecting fame, or inventing technologies, without acknowledging the love in our hearts.
The chorus of the song tries to remind us that there is a higher force beyond our limited knowledge. The phrase, "Behind the world we're living in, is so much more than we do know," hints at the essentiality of self-discovery and exploration of the unknown. The song enunciates that there is a force that can guide, comfort, and reassure us, but we don't care to seek it out. The phrase, "There's ONE who loves you so," signifies the all-encompassing love that exists in the spiritual realm.
"Final Fortune" is a song that encourages us to realize that life has more profound meaning beyond our short-sighted ambitions. The song calls us to seek the higher force that gives ultimate answers to our unanswered questions, hopes and dreams. The song tells a story of humanity seeking control while ignoring the love within our hearts and trying to find real security in a chaotic world.

We try to force our final fortune
We attempt to control our future outcomes
As if we knew the final score
Acting as though we are aware of what is to come
And we pretend to know things better
We fake having a superior knowledge
In our madness we ignore
In our irrationality, we overlook
How small we are
Our insignificance
We are
We exist
Far above this ignorance
Well beyond this state of unawareness
A higher force you'll find
There is a greater power to be discovered
Forever giving answers to the blind
Consistently providing insight to those who can't see
When fate comes calling you
When destiny summons you
You don't know what to do
You're unsure how to proceed
Behind the world we're living in
Beyond the reality we're experiencing
Is so much more than we do know
There's an abundance of unknowns
There's ONE who loves you so
There's an entity that cares for you greatly
Protecting nations, wealth and soldiers
Maintaining safety for countries, riches and fighters
Collecting fame and victory
Gathering recognition and success
Inventing star-ships, tanks and rockets
Creating spacecraft, armored vehicles and missiles
But still we don't know how to see
Yet, we're still incapable of perceiving
The love in our hearts
The affection we hold within us
Our hearts
Our emotions
Far from all this ignorance
Far removed from this state of unawareness
A higher force would share
A superior power would provide
Verity and hope
Truth and optimism
But we don't care
But we disregard it
There's so much more than we do know
There's an abundance of unknowns
There's ONE who loves you so
There's an entity that cares for you greatly
Behind the world we're living in
Beyond the reality we're experiencing
When fate comes calling you
When destiny summons you
You don't know what to do
You're unsure how to proceed

Мы испытываем судьбу в последние минуты,
Словно зная окончательный счет,
И разыгрываем из себя всезнаек.
В своем безумии мы забываем,
Насколько мы ничтожны,
Мы ничтожны.
Возносясь над невежеством,
Ты обретешь высшую силу,
У которой всегда найдутся ответы для заблудших.
Когда тебе выпадает жребий,
Ты не знаешь, что делать.
За гранями мира, в котором мы живем, –
Столько неизвестного.
Есть ТОТ, кто любит тебя, поэтому
За гранями мира, в котором мы живем,
Есть столько неизвестного, чего мы вряд ли постигнем.
Защищая народы, богатства и солдат,
Упиваясь славой и победами,
Изобретая космолеты, танки и ракеты,
Мы не знаем, как открыть
Любви наши сердца,
Наши сердца.
Вдали от невежества
Высшая сила поделится
Истиной и надеждой,
Но мы равнодушны.
Когда тебе выпадает жребий,
Ты не знаешь, что делать.
За гранями мира, в котором мы живем, –
Столько неизвестного.
Есть ТОТ, кто любит тебя, поэтому
За гранями мира, в котором мы живем,
Есть столько неизвестного, чего мы вряд ли постигнем.
