Olen sulle ilmaa (I am air to you)

Most likely, not many Finnish songs have been heard on this forum, but here is one smile Noel requested something in my own language. Also my vocalist Miira suggested showcasing this track, because it is already quite strange with the Asian/Bollywood style instrumentation. So here it is to baffle you smile Miira created nice oriental backing vocals and also influenced on the lyrics with many good ideas. All instruments were created with BIAB, what a versatile program smile

Lyrics freely translated in English:

I am air to you
You think you don't have to ask for it
I'm tired in your company
You are living too full life.

I am space to you
you want to conquer every corner
you suck all my energy
and repress without me noticing.

When you step into the room,
you take oxygen, light and its rays
your presence darkens the stars and the moon
in vacuum withers the tree of life.

I hope you understand
why I'm running away.

I am air to you
if you stay by my side I get weak
I break into atoms in the wind
I cease to exist, disappear.

I am time to you
I'm too easy to consume
the hours go by fast with you
I'm not enough although I run for real.

It's not your fault I seek your company
I give you too much power to take advantage of me
I hope that even once you leave me some peace.

I hope you understand
why I'm running away
I endure you
only on small doses
only when I'm alone
I get to recover.
