Tundra (SWE) : The North Will Rise
Lyrics
1. CARRY ON
Isolation, cannot move, cannot breathe
Darkest chambers of my mind has cornered me
Thrown into a hole from which i cannot climb
Enslaved and shackeled, imprisoned for no crime
Since the dawn of time and man
Ever since it all began
Things they change and time moves on
Hold your head up, stand your ground and carry on
Cold sensation, sorrow's got the upper hand
Fumbling desperately to find this nightmare's end
Walls are closing in, voices in my mind
Taunting me with the relief i'll never find
Like dark shadows on the wall
Casting figures sharp and tall
Thoughts are sheep, a mind's the herd
Be advised, take my word and carry on
Carry on, sorrow strikes but time moves on
Carry on, carry on
One lifetime and then you're gone
So whenever you're in doubt just carry on
2. INTO SUBMISSION
Down on your knees, looking up with blue eyes
Pigtails, plaid skirt barely hiding your thighs
You've been a bad girl and now you're gonna get it
Assume position, you know it so well
Anticipation in your eyes, i can tell
Your ass is mine and i'm gonna red it
Cause i'll floor ya
Make you sore, yeah
Tie you up, hold you down, max hardcore ya
Into submission
Good girls don't bad girls do, and i know your kind my dear
Know your thing, pull your strings, master and puppeteer
Rules of thumb, just comply and obey
Tears of shame running down your sweet face
Feel my hands steady dance, (your) cheeks now ablaze
Nowhere to hide, got you tied, don't try running away
Cause i'll track ya
And i'll smack ya
With my missile of love i'll attack ya
Into submission
Little girl in this world you gotta know who's the boss
Gotta learn where to turn and what lines not to cross
Disobedient thoughts dismissed
It's all free, soon you'll see that punishment's a reward
Please and heel, serve and kneel slowly learning the score
An untamed mind, that's just fine but obedience is bliss
Cause i'll spank ya
You'll say thank ya
Come sweet pleasure and pain and i'll crank ya
Into submission
3. NEXT STOP PURGATORY
A bearded old man wants me to join his herd
To fall in line and be saved
Just do his bidding, never question or doubt
Accept, be tamed and enslaved
On a divine crusade
March like soldiers so brave
Pointing fingers at me
Next stop purgatory
By everlasting love a seat is reserved
Just lay your life in his hands
The pearly gates will open wide to each one
Ignoring reason and sense
Walking from door to door
Collecting self-righteous scores
So content in belief
Next stop purgatory
"drink the blood of christ and join his holy choir"
Drinking blood is for bats and vampires
"i hear the voices of a divine congregation"
You hear voices? Get some god damned medication
The second coming's at hand
Like santa he knows who's been bad
Your damnation is near
Next stop purgatory
4. MOONSHINE AND SNOWMOBILES
Since the 19th century upgraded iron ore
Blasted right out from the rock and sent to southern shores
Now petty-minded voices cry of rage and discontent
Profits in the billion range
Think twice where they went
Daylight quickly flashes by
Like a shooting star up in the sky
Minus forty centigrade
Oh thank god we got it made
With moonshine and snowmobiles
Here the mighty rivers run, generating terawatts
Dispatched and used up far from here, were left with scraps and cuts
Heres a newsflash, things you take for granted dont come free
Dont talk to me about the needy north, lets talk a while about greed
Let me tell you a thing or two
You need us more than we need you
River deep, mountain high
So much more than meets the eye
Than moonshine and snowmobiles
Some just lick the jam right from the spoon that we supply
Then call us parasites and make us beg for handouts, why?
Common sense is ringing, now please listen up and learn
Justice is a two-way street, no deposit, no return
Darkness falls at two am, roaming bears, cloudberry jam
Oh yeah
Midnight sun, mosquito swarms
I wont sell, i bought the farm
With moonshine and snowmobiles
5. SOMETHING WICKED
As i turned on the morning news
The other day alone at home
In chock i watched as my heart felt
A chill right down my spine and bones
My god, it's happened once again
The first thing that came to mind
How can we go on from here
I sense ahead lies darker times
Like emus bow down their heads
Into the sand to block the view
Conveniently diverted eyes
Makes a bad security crew
Now how vill this affect the way
We lead our lives, our state of mind
I fear we'll soon will be closing down
Things that once were opened wide
You can run but you can't hide it
You can resist but you can't fight it
Something wicked this way comes
Saw no signs, ignored the warning
Oblivous to what was dawning
Something wicked this way comes
6. EDEN WITHIN
Calling, hear me calling you
In the midnight hour long till day breaks through
Darkness all around me now
A new day will come but this solitude wont go
As the voices travel through the air
I turn around but there's no one there
Hollow, nothing left inside
Alone now as the wings of time moves on
To this day one single moment returns
The fire's put out yet there's a flame that still burns
A stroll down memory lane to places i've been
You took my hand and showed me eden within
Thinking about the times we had
Things i never did, things i never said
Always thought we'd have much more time to spend
Thought those good old times would never end
Now i know just how big a fool i've been
In the race 'gainst time you can never win
The sun will set tonight just like yesterday
And life goes on at least that's what they all say
The voice of reason sounds so hollow and thin
Clutching at straws to find that eden within
To this day one single moment returns
The fire's put out yet there's a flame that still burns
A stroll down memory lane to places i've been
You took my hand and showed me eden within
Left behind with a hole inside
Such a cruel reminder of days gone by
Struggling in my sanity make me whole again
Show me eden within
