Verse 1
I'm looking at you, you look the same
But there's something new in your voice
It's nice to talk after a long time
Even though I don't know you anymore
Because we're not us anymore
Chorus 1
We buy Christmas presents for someone else
You don't belong to me anymore
When you leave, I don't follow you anymore
Because we're not us anymore
You can walk me home, but you can't come inside anymore
Wounds don't heal by tearing them open
So turn around and walk away
Because we're not us anymore
Verse 2
The biting November wind blows against me
The streets of Helsinki are flooded with trash
I'm cold, you can tell
But you don't offer your jacket
Because we're not us anymore
Chorus 2
We buy Christmas presents for someone else
You don't belong to me anymore
When you leave, I don't follow you anymore
Because we're not us anymore
You can walk me home, but you can't come inside anymore
Wounds don't heal by tearing them open
So turn around and walk away
Because we're not us anymore
No more us
Bridge
I'm looking at you, you look the same
Even though I don't know you anymore
Because we're not us anymore
Chorus 3
We buy Christmas presents for someone else
You don't belong to me anymore
When you leave, I don't follow you anymore
Because we're not us anymore
You can walk me home, but you can't come inside anymore
Wounds don't heal by tearing them open
So turn around and walk away
Because we're not us anymore
No more us

viima — chill wind / biting wind

Viima translates to 'chill wind' or 'biting wind'. It's a specific and evocative word for a cold, often strong, wind, particularly common in Nordic climates.

In the song, the lyric "Marraskuun viima vasten puhaltaa" (November's chill wind blows against) perfectly captures the cold, desolate feeling of a breakup. It's a powerful metaphor for the harsh reality and emotional chill that the protagonist is experiencing, making it a memorable and unique word choice.

This song is about that super awkward, sad moment when you run into an ex and realize you're basically strangers now. Sanni sings, "Katselen sua, sä näytät samalta / Vaikka en tunne enää sinua" (I'm looking at you, you look the same / Even though I don't know you anymore). It's all about the little details that show how much things have changed. For example, she notes that even though he sees she's cold, he doesn't offer his coat like he used to.

The chorus is just a list of blunt truths about their new reality. They now "Ostetaan joululahjat jollekkin toiselle" (buy Christmas presents for someone else), and she sets a firm boundary: "Voit saattaa kotiin, muttet pääse enää sisälle" (You can walk me home, but you can't come inside anymore). The song accepts that the relationship is over and that trying to revisit it would only make things worse, because as she says, "Ei haavat niitä repimällä parane" (Wounds don't heal by tearing them open).
