Potentiaali [English translation]

When the stream takes you with it to the Universe

You cling to a book, you cling to a rail

If you cherish your fear

As a farmer cherishes his field

And beware of stepping

where it [the field] is flowering

You are living on half-power

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

If you wallow in self pity

in great quantities

Then you are not the victim

And then the World has it all wrong

You are not living to the fullest

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

It is easy to stay in the comfort zone

Even when you should be growing and renewing yourself

You are playing the same loop until it jams

jams, jams

All standing waves, rigid statues

that you are defending

For which you are using your energies

Are so important to you

Little illusions

When the stream takes you with it to the Universe

You cling to a book, you cling to a rail

And you cherish your fear

As a farmer cherishes his field

And beware of stepping

where it [the field] is flowering

You are living on half-power

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

If you wallow in self pity

in great quantities

Then you are not the victim

And then the World has it all wrong

You are not living to the fullest

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

Stretching over the edge

Embracing the nothingness

Wasting your love

Opening your heart

Defying "being pissed off" [1]

Escaping from pig pen

The next level is exactly meant for you

On the desert of your mind,

there is a garden somewhere

Where everything is possible

And nothing is certain

And even though you plow with pleasure

The long field strip [of your mind]

Try to visit the jungle occasionally

And if it is terra incognita for you

I do not wonder why

You cherish your fear

As a farmer cherishes his field

And beware of stepping

where it [the field] is flowering

You are living on half-power

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

If you wallow in self pity

in great quantities

Then you are not the victim

And then the World has it all wrong

You are not living to the fullest

That is what it says about you

Why wouldn't you figure out your potential

You cling to a book, you cling to a rail

When the stream is taking you to the Universe
