Kappaleen sanat
In the dark of North we're born
Raised by her cold caress
Worn out by the tides of time
Breathing in melancholy
Nothing can ever save our souls
Clouded in disdain and doubt
Before our foes we stand as one
...Yet in our grief all alone...
We sing the hymns of our disgrace
And despise the world outside
Don't give the weak a helping hand
It's every man for himself
Beyond the gates there's light and joy
Kindness and warmth we pushed away
Somewhere out there those strangers feast
Their lives in bloom, ours in tomb
In this land of 1000 woes
We have imprisoned ourselves
One day our pride will bring us down
And in ruin forever lies the Embassy of Sorrow
In the heart of the polar darkness
We curse our unlucky stars
In the depths of our drunken misery
We reap what we have sown
We've burned all bridges behind us
We live one foot in the grave
At the end of our path there's oblivion
Yet we refuse to change our ways
In this land of 1000 woes
We have imprisoned ourselves
One day our pride will bring us down
And in ruin forever lies the Embassy of Sorrow
Raised by her cold caress
Worn out by the tides of time
Breathing in melancholy
Nothing can ever save our souls
Clouded in disdain and doubt
Before our foes we stand as one
...Yet in our grief all alone...
We sing the hymns of our disgrace
And despise the world outside
Don't give the weak a helping hand
It's every man for himself
Beyond the gates there's light and joy
Kindness and warmth we pushed away
Somewhere out there those strangers feast
Their lives in bloom, ours in tomb
In this land of 1000 woes
We have imprisoned ourselves
One day our pride will bring us down
And in ruin forever lies the Embassy of Sorrow
In the heart of the polar darkness
We curse our unlucky stars
In the depths of our drunken misery
We reap what we have sown
We've burned all bridges behind us
We live one foot in the grave
At the end of our path there's oblivion
Yet we refuse to change our ways
In this land of 1000 woes
We have imprisoned ourselves
One day our pride will bring us down
And in ruin forever lies the Embassy of Sorrow
