Sankarin Tango Lyrics by Petri Alanko

Control (Original Soundtrack)

2020

[Jae 1]
"Järveks' luulin merta kerran", runon lausui hän
Mysteerin sen syövereissä vietti elämän
Alla synkän valtameren varjoiss' vaeltaa
Etsii tietä valoon, luokse armaan, ainiaan
[Kertosäe]
Yksin sankar' yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täss' pelissä tää narri lyödään maahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuoloss' lepoo suodaan, jo takas kutsutaan
​[Jae 2]
Aika särkyy, ikuisuuteen laukaus kajahtaa
Ei onnellista loppua hän kohtaa milloinkaan
Niin monta kertaa kerrottu tää tarina jo on
Sankarilla tuhat kasvoo, polku lohduton
​[Kertosäe]
Yksin sankar' yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täss' pelissä tää narri lyödään maahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuoloss' lepoo suodaan, jo takas kutsutaan
​[Outro]
Täss' pelissä tää narri lyödään maahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuoloss' lepoo suodaan, jo takas kutsutaan
**English Translation**
[Verse 1]
"Once, I mistook an ocean for a lake ", he recited the poem
In the mystery's depths he spent his life
Under the dark ocean's shadows, he wanders
Searching his way to the light, to his beloved, forever
[Chorus]
Alone the hero travels deeper in to the night
This burden on his shoulders would be there always, like a promise
In the game this fool is beaten again and again
But only a moment of rest in death is given, already having to return
[Verse 2]
Time shatters, a shot echoes into eternity
He will never get a happy ending
So many times this story has been told
The hero has a thousand faces, and a hopeless path forward
[Chorus]
Alone the hero travels deeper in to the night
This burden on his shoulders would be there always, like a promise
In the game this fool is beaten again and again
But only a moment of rest in death is given, already having to return
[Outro]
In the game this fool is beaten again and again
But only a moment of rest in death is given, already having to return
