“Arms Around Me is a true story about what it is to grow up in an alcoholic family. It describes the mixed feelings of deep love and muted anger and how those opposite feelings could blend together.“ comments“, Ville and adds: “This song is a sledgehammer. This song is a human grinder.“
Jussi adds: “I’m excited to have been able to write such a lucid and distinctive power ballad rock song. The parts are very strong as such, so it made sense to keep them simple and as is. Arms Around Me is big and full, yet it breaths with ease and comes very close to you on many levels.“

LYRICS:
ARMS AROUND ME
I remember when I asked you to help me sleep
I remember trying to turn off your needs
I remember I was listening to your breath
As you slept
I remember I was laying there still
I remember dreams of cycling
I remember when I pulled myself away
I remember it like yesterday
I feel your arms around me still
I feel your arms around me still
We are beautiful pieces in a human grinder
I feel your arms around me still
I remember when we ran away from home
I remember my mother driving south
I remember when I woke up
In the middle of the night alone
I remember when you called to say I got hurt
I remember I was thinking this that guy is dirt
I remember saying at the age of 10
If I had a gun I would kill you
I feel your arms around me still
I feel your arms around me still
We are beautiful pieces in a human grinder
I feel your arms around me still
I can never forget you eyes
When you looked at me for the last time
Torn down and scared
Still trying to smile
We are beautiful pieces
in a human grinder
I feel your arms around me still
I feel your arms around me still
We are beautiful pieces in a human grinder
I feel your arms around me still
