Tuli palakoon
Synestesia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
taakkani painaa,
mut vain hetken verran.
Minä tuhoan, tämän elämän,
tuli palakoon, kaiken vieköön.
Minä tuhoan, kaiken elävän,
tuli taloni nyt pois vieköön.
Ystäväni nyt saa viimeisen sijan,
vaimoni vierestään löytää hän pian.
Kukaan ei häntä tunnistaa saata,
haulikon laukaus sen varmaks voi taata.
Viimeisen viestimme keskeltä taitan,
sänkymme reunalle hellästi laitan.
Minä aloitan, uuden elämän,
ehkä viimeisen, kuka tieköön.
Tämän elämän, minä unohdan,
tuli palakoon ja kaiken vieköön.
In the song "Tuli palakoon," Synestesia addresses themes of destruction, death, and the potential for rebirth. The lyrics depict a character who is carrying a heavy burden but ultimately decides to destroy their life and everything in it. The singer speaks of ending all life around them, including their own, and leaving nothing behind. The verses suggest a strong feeling of isolation and detachment from the world, triggering a desire for complete and total annihilation. The last two lines of the song juxtapose the destructive imagery with a sense of hope by describing the possibility of starting a new life that may be the last one.
The first two lines of the song suggest that this moment may be the last for the singer as they open the door one final time. The weight of their burdens is so heavy that they can hardly carry them, but only for a short while. The singer can no longer continue carrying these burdens, and thus they decide to "destroy this life," burning everything down to start anew. The repetition of the phrase "tuli palakoon" in the chorus, which translates to "let the fire burn," further emphasizes the character's desire to annihilate everything.
The following lines suggest the act of killing all living things in the proximity of the singer. They talk about leaving behind their friends and wife alongside haunting imagery of no one recognizing their loved ones' remains. In the closing lines, the singer reflects on this final act of destruction, along with the possibility and uncertainty of a new life. This reflects the theme of rebirth as they prepare to lay down their last message to the world and start fresh, leaving their past behind forever.

Oveni avaan viimeisen kerran,
I open my door for the last time,
taakkani painaa,
my burdens weigh on me,
mut vain hetken verran.

I destroy this life,
tuli palakoon, kaiken vieköön.

Ystäväni nyt saa viimeisen sijan,
my friend will have the last resting place,
vaimoni vierestään löytää hän pian.
and soon he will find her by his side.
Kukaan ei häntä tunnistaa saata,
no one will recognize her,
haulikon laukaus sen varmaks voi taata.
a shotgun blast will surely do.
Viimeisen viestimme keskeltä taitan,
from the center of our last message I fold,
sänkymme reunalle hellästi laitan.
gently placing it at the edge of our bed.
Minä aloitan, uuden elämän,
I begin a new life,
ehkä viimeisen, kuka tieköön.
perhaps the last, who knows.
Tämän elämän, minä unohdan,
I forget this life,
tuli palakoon ja kaiken vieköön.
let the fire take everything.

You're welcome. When I first found about them, I was dumbfounded. They're great but almost unheard of. Hope these peeps go big soon, they seriously deserve it.
