UMK 2021: Aksel - "Hurt"

Στον εθνικό τελικό της ΦινλανδίαςUuden Musiikin Kilpailu 2021, θα διαγωνιστούν επτά συμμετοχές, ανάμεσα τους και o Aksel με το τραγούδι του "Hurt" (Πλήγμα) σε μουσική και στίχους των Gerard O'Connell, Joonas Angeria, Kalle Lindroth..


 

Ο Aksel ήταν ο περσινός νικητής του UMK και εκπρόσωπος της χώρας, λόγω της ακύρωσης του διαγωνισμού δε του δόθηκε η ευκαιρία να διαγωνιστεί, φέτος δηλώνει πιο έτοιμος με ένα τραγούδι που μιλάει για το πως μπορεί να φαίνεται απατηλή η εμφάνιση, μια δυνατή μπαλάντα. 

Οι στίχοι του τραγουδιού:

I was just treading water
Try to swim out of the pain
Looking over my shoulder
To outrun a hurricane
And every time I tried to breathe
It only took my breath away
Always one step away
Yeah, from the fall

And I've been down that road before
Thought I was living, I was dying more
So I won't leave or close that door
'Cause I don't need to hurt anymore
And I ain't losing no more sleep
Falling down and begging please
'Cause I've been down that road before
And I don't need to hurt anymore

No more smoke and mirrors
I always lost what I tried to hide
Now everything's getting clearer
I like watching what's on my mind
And every time I tried to breathe
You only took my breath away
Lucky I'm still standing after all

And I've been down that road before
Thought I was living, I was dying more
So I won't leave or close that door
'Cause I don't need to hurt anymore
And I ain't losing no more sleep
Falling down and begging please
'Cause I've been down that road before
And I don't need to hurt anymore

Every time I tried to breathe
You always took my breath away

And I've been down that road before
Thought I was living, I was dying more
So I won't leave or close that door
'Cause I don't need to hurt anymore
And I ain't losing no more sleep
Falling down and begging please
'Cause I've been down that road before
And I don't need to hurt anymore

Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I don't need to hurt anymore
