Elina, mitä mä teen [English translation]

Ellu was a bartender

working in the cafe

that had a backroom where we lived for a while

Because I didn't get a job myself

we stayed up during the nights together

I don't know what to do

I guess we have to send the children in a facility

Is anything ever enough in this life

Couldn't the endless spiraling just stop for a while

We too tried to make ourselves believe

that we would get an electrical oven beside the fridge

Ellu always cried at work

that's why she then got fired

and at night we were freezing in the entrance of the ATM

I guess she was pregnant again as well

I stole a jacket for her somewhere

I don't know what to do

The situation made me it's hostage

Is anything ever enough in this life

Couldn't the enormous pressure just stop for awhile

How often you get beaten up

How quickly both the money and the reputation are gone

When Ellu got hit by the cab

that when turning left

didn't use his turn signal, even though he claimed so

It was a modest funeral

I'd like to have a funeral like that too

I don't know what to do

I've already gotten numb to the feeling of misery

Is anything ever enough in this life

Couldn't the endless spiraling just stop for a while

We too tried to make ourselves believe

that we would get an electrical oven beside the fridge

Is anything ever enough in this life

Couldn't the enormous pressure just stop for awhile

How often you get beaten up

How quickly both the money and the reputation are gone

Elina what am I going to do
