lyrics
In the midst of our greed
we opened the door thinking all is ours
but no one can rule the sun or sea
no one owns the land or trees
White man's dream is just kill and lead
you're only passions are
but rape and unleash the beast
We offered peace without any tricks
but you just let us down
I'd started your own feasts
Should I be proud of brother's crusades
should I celebrate all those five hundred years
Now we want to just close our eyes
and deny to see our crimes
the nation cries, while it dies
but no one listens to,
'coz we live in lies
(mother moon behold me
I'm waiting for the dew to relief
father sun, behold me
I'm waiting for the beams of tomorrow
Throw the sorrow back tomorrow...)
we opened the door thinking all is ours
but no one can rule the sun or sea
no one owns the land or trees
White man's dream is just kill and lead
you're only passions are
but rape and unleash the beast
We offered peace without any tricks
but you just let us down
I'd started your own feasts
Should I be proud of brother's crusades
should I celebrate all those five hundred years
Now we want to just close our eyes
and deny to see our crimes
the nation cries, while it dies
but no one listens to,
'coz we live in lies
(mother moon behold me
I'm waiting for the dew to relief
father sun, behold me
I'm waiting for the beams of tomorrow
Throw the sorrow back tomorrow...)

Featuring Rami Jämsä (vocals/guitar), Toni Honkala (guitar), Juha Telenius (bass), and Janne Miikkulainen (drums), Finland’s short-lived death metal band Convulse only issued two albums during brief their career, neither of which brought them much recognition at the time. But hindsight is always 20/20, and they have been retrospectively credited as one of their country’s first extreme metal bands. ... more
