V
Kullervo. Symphonic poem Op.7. Jean Sibelius Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You lie with ease right to my face
You look straight in my eyes
No task for you, you cannot see
Between truth and dishonesty
Friends so long yet you still try
To force feed me your fucking lies

I hear your lies, how come I'm the lucky one?
I see your lies, glorify what you haven't done
I hate your lies, stories different every time
5 years of lies, 1-2, 1-2-3-4!

You talk about the girls you know
The asses that you've kicked
Sometimes I sit in disbelief
Wondering what you really think




What I strive for, you laugh about
Behind my fucking back no doubt

Honestly, the introduction alone is a great piece. The whole epic is massive, and yet it (intro) still evokes the grandeur and tragedy of the story in just that, an introduction

un chef-d'œuvre vraiment sous-estimé
