Matkalla Kadotukseen
JUJU Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.

Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Babylonin rattaat ne pyörii, ne pyörii ja pyörii.
Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Nyt on aika pysähtyä. Nyt on aika pysäyttää ne.

Nyt saa loppuu lammastouhut, pilipalikoulut, viikonloppukännit ja odotukset joulun.
Ei auta valittaminen, voivottelu tai riman alittaminen.
Pään pitäminen puskas on ohi. Jatkuva lohduton tuska on ohi.
Tarvitaan rohkeutta toimia, niin paljon rakkautta, voimia.
Yhdessä me hoidetaan tää. Kädet yhteen, niin me voitetaan nää.
Lopeta duuni, alota uusi ihmisten hyväksi, eläinten hyväksi,
kasvien hyväksi ja koko maapallon hyväksi.
Et voi olla onnellinen ennen kun kaikki täällä on onnellisii.

Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Babylonin rattaat ne pyörii, ne pyörii ja pyörii.
Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Nyt on aika pysähtyä. Nyt on aika pysäyttää ne.

Kaikilla meillä päässä tääl on lähetin ja sä tarjontaasi voit muuttaa.
Mutta kun toimii sulla myöskin vastaanotin, ni se on sun ainoota oikeeta omaisuutta, ja
kulkee kiltit lampaat paljon kiltimmin, kunhan aamul Hesarinsa lukee.
Pukee mielissänsä vaatteet uudet keisarin, kun kirkko valtion kimpas ydinaseita tukee.

Maapallo on muuntautumassa, scifijännärit toteutumassa.
Nyt ei auta itku, nyt ei auta kitku, vaan voima koko massan.
Vaikka kuinka piru sisälläsi alas sua kiskookaan, ei saa magneettijunaa pois kiskoiltaan.
Ei siel selätä sua enää liskotkaan, sivuun viskot vaan.
Unohda halut ja tähtää viel isoompaan. Taikamaailma avautuu.
Avaa itsesi sille, niin vapautuu, eikä haluu enää entiseen palautuu.

Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Babylonin rattaat ne pyörii, ne pyörii ja pyörii.
Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Nyt on aika pysähtyä. Nyt on aika pysäyttää ne.
Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Babylonin rattaat ne pyörii, ne pyörii ja pyörii.

Me ollaan matkalla kadotukseen.
Nyt on aika pysähtyä. Nyt on aika pysäyttää ne.

Forget our petty desires and aim for something greater. A truly magical world is waiting for us to unlock it.

Avaa itsesi sille, niin vapautuu, eikä haluu enää entiseen palautuu.
Open yourself up to it, and you will be free from the chains of the past and never want to return.
