Last day brings the grace
For bearers of forbidden name
Step into five fold mace
As son as father in a frame
Someday fire wipes the rain
Fears are frozen tears whisper
Things that no one hears
Cry now, cry now for me again
Tomorrows pride and pain
Why you kneel before my name
Crushing my belief
And make shape to my relief
For who you set your prayers
I can't hear them anyway
Someday fire wipes the rain
Fears are frozen tears whisper
Things that no one heras
Cry now, cry now for me again
Tomorrows pride and pain
Why you kneel before my name
For bearers of forbidden name
Step into five fold mace
As son as father in a frame
Fears are frozen tears whisper
Things that no one hears
Cry now, cry now for me again
Tomorrows pride and pain
Why you kneel before my name
And make shape to my relief
For who you set your prayers
I can't hear them anyway
Fears are frozen tears whisper
Things that no one heras
Cry now, cry now for me again
Tomorrows pride and pain
Why you kneel before my name

'Tuonela' the title of the 1999 album this song is from, means he realm of the dead in Finnish mythology. I believe this song is about Kullervo who is an ill-fated character in the Kalevala (a Finnish national epic). Kullervo (son of Kalervo) while growing up in the aftermath of the massacre of his entire tribe comes to realize that the same people who had brought him up, the tribe of Untamo, were also the ones who had slain his family. He vows to get his revenge on the tribe from that day forward.
i love this song... its got an epic qualtity to it
i think its about the apocalypse
or about someone who believed in him, and assumed he was a "saint" but he had to let them down because he didnt live up to thier expectations
