Amorphis
Hopeless Days
[Verse 1]
I never wanted
I never wanted to be born
Into this cruel world
Into this cruel world I was torn
Left behind with grief
Lacerated by life
Shackled into caves of grieves

[Verse 2]
From an union
From an union of force and fear
Arose my kin
Arose my kin enslaved
In hopelessness
In hopelessness and suspicion
The seed of eternal tomorrow

[Chorus]
I was born a captive
A captive of the night
In between
Hopeless days
I was born on sleet
On sleet covered roads
I've been driven by howling winds
[Verse 3]
A beggar, a drifter
A refugee from my own life
And a companion
Companion of the ghostly lights
But still they came
They found the way to get to me
They beckoned me to follow

[Chorus]
I was born a captive
A captive of the night
In between
Hopeless days
I was born on sleet
On sleet covered roads
I've been driven by howling winds

[Chorus]
I was born a captive
A captive of the night
In between
Hopeless days
I was born on sleet
On sleet covered roads
I've been driven by howling winds
