We are both so lost
but we have rhythm in our hearts.
What does it cost
to make it stop before it starts?
Do not take my hand
because then you will always feel alone.
You understand
that my heart was made from stone
but if you stay tonight
we could dance on the northern lights
and though it is dark and it is cold outside
it is alright because they bring us to life.
Phantoms of my dreams.
They have become too real
and now I really know.
I know they are a part of me.
It‘s like we stay up late
inside our old dreams.
You know that I,
I am so used to being alone.
You understand
that my heart was made from stone
but if you stay tonight
we could dance on the northern lights
and though it is dark and it is cold outside
it is alright because they bring us to live.
Phantoms of my dreams.
They have become too real
and now I really know.
I know they are a part of me
but still I want to go
back to Mexico
to follow my old dreams.
I know they are a part of me.
It is like we stay up late
inside our old dreams.

Say My Name
03:17
|

Say my name,
say it now
and we will manage somehow
to find forgotten sparks
but I have no time and then you are always late.
We wonder why feelings fade.
Out in those strangers eyes
I can see paradise.
I hope you change my mind.
Why won’t change my mind?
Tell me how,
tell me when
we will be trying again.
Ready to leave those marks
but I am in my prime
and I am on a rush.
I am leaving you my heart
to crush.
Out in those strangers eyes
I can see paradise.
I hope you change my mind.
Why won’t change my mind?

Got in alone on the right side of the road.
I had some secrets in pockets of my coat.
Now I have been awake for some hours and I am tired.
So tired and sleep I desire.
Then I look up and I see his face
and his boots and his brown suitcase
and I think I have seen him before
but I cannot remember when
and then I notice a golden tooth
that does not match his youth
but when our eyes meet
I feel the sudden heat,
these fireworks in my chest.
This feeling I had forgotten.
Where is he going and what is his name?
It feels like I have to say something, maybe he feels the same
and I am no longer tired, I feel nice.
Awakened by sparks in his eyes
and I am hoping that he will stay
because it is such a sunny day
and I can feel my blood,
it is screaming in my veins
but we both know this cannot last
because we are going far too fast
and now he has to go.
But where?
I will never know.
Maybe later we will meet again on crossroads
and when your eyes meet mine,
the spark is still there
and all my worries and blue secrets,
they turn to nothing as I gaze into your eyes
Forgetting you takes time.

I am afraid to fall again.
I am afraid to fall in love again,
your honey love.
But whenever I get lost
and whenever I get dumb and lost
it pulls me in.
If maybe I go there again
you will turn my mind against my heart.
My honey-heart.
But you keep me so safe and awake and away from the fire.
They want me in.
I am shivering.
Keep me so safe, every day, in your arms.
Tell me, where are we going to run?
Where are we going to run?
A fire burning in my heart.
Has it been there from the start?
In honey-heart?
But you keep me so safe and awake and away from the fire.
They want me in.
I am shivering.
Keep me so safe, every day, in your arms.
Tell me, where are we going to run?
Where are we going to run?
Meðan máninn miður sín læðist inn um gluggann.
Meðan máninn miður sín tefur skuggann.
Meðan máninn miður sín grípur mig.
Keep me so safe, every day, in your arms.
Tell me, where are we going to run?
Where are we going to run?
Hold me close or I won’t be here again if you call.
You call but I am not here anymore.
I am afraid to fall again.
So afraid to fall again in love.
Your honey-love.
Yellow and green, please don't get in the way.
Yellow and blue, they don't know what to say.
But they are there every day.

Amicus

I will keep you closer than my enemies.
I will not forget all our memories,
like when I saw you and held your hand
or when you all left me for reasons I could not understand.
(It begins to show
a disconnected family.
So please do not let go.
Am I just a memory?)
We used to talk under the midnight sun
until you told me that you had found the one.
Then I fell deeper and deeper down
and I have to admit that I had a small breakdown.
So I let you go.
You became a memory
but I want to know.
Am I now your enemy?
I keep trying not to think of you
and that is not an easy thing to do.
So I will tell you, I miss you friend
and I truly am sorry, I did not just attend.

Today I am running away
like I really do not mind.
Today I am not going to stay,
I am going to run
and feel the wind in my face
and sun in my heart.
Today I have come to realize,
I have not been free.
I see it finally.
But then the sky goes dark
and it gets really cold
and my mind goes blank
and things start to unfold.
That the things we need
the most in our lives
cannot be touched,
they come from the inside.
Last night I got so afraid,
I started to cry.
Last night I felt so betrayed
because there was no sun.
Just me, the moon and the stars
but that is not enough.
Last night my newfound freedom lost.
I run back to
the comfort of my bed.
But then I fall asleep
and I am back outside
and the sun has come up
and it is shining bright.
And I start to think of
how this came about.
I realize,
I cannot always be free.

I have the taste of your name
on my tongue, it is keeping me awake.
A blend of feathers and grenades,
all falling down but forming different shapes on my tongue
and though I turn in your way.
I cannot say if that is the right way
and I don‘t know what to say
but when you are around I want to stay.
Because I like how you make my
fly in your poems.
Because in reality,
oh I can‘t even dance.
Though my mind is moving,
Oh my body stays still
but now you make me want to try
to take the chance
to dance.

They tell me I cannot stay long
but I feel like they might be wrong.
I tell them I will go to sleep.
A promise that I cannot keep
because I feel so alive.
I know that he likes this song.
I know because he sings along.
His car smells of sweat and dirt.
I am wearing his favorite-shirt.
I am already a woman.
I know that this cannot be right
but I do not have the strength to fight.
I love my friends and my home
but sometimes I feel so alone.
I think I need a lover.
I remember back when we were talking by the coastline.
Sitting on the broken swings and sipping on some moonshine.
Now I feel like I cannot stay and waste my time on nonsense.
I still do and that seems to be eating at my conscience.
I am already a stranger in my own group.
My thoughts run around in loops.
It is heavy to have a head.
It is heavy to not be dead.
It is heavy to be human.

Marjorie

When I came home.
Thought I was alone
but she sat there waiting at me.
Oh no.
Oh no.
I tried to run.
She picked up her gun.
The bullet flew right past me
and I hide,
I hide but she will always find me.
Marjorie, Marjorie, go away.
It is no good.
Lay down the gun, soon I will pay.
Please listen to me.
Marjorie, Marjorie, it is all right.
I will buy you things,
like diamond rings and stars of the night.
If you go away.
I hide under the bed.
She wants me dead.
The trigger is still searching for me.
She's close,
she's close, I think she hears me breathing.
Marjorie, Marjorie, it is all right
I will buy you things,
like diamond rings and stars of the night.
If you go away.
Oh Marjorie.
You truly are my misery
and sooner or later
we will be roller-skating
down black hill.
The slopes there are steep
and my fear you unleash,
just for your thrill.
I ask you to leave me
but you would deceive me
saying that you want me still.
Within me, without you.
You try to announce
against my will.
You told me you loved me
but then you were on me
coming for the kill.

Cravings

I crave your touch.
I crave your touch too much
but I can‘t be
the one you want me to be.
No, I cannot be the one.
I will miss your touch.
I will miss your touch too much
but I cannot take
the pain your impact will make.
No, I cannot take the crash.
In the days when this was just for fun.
Now they have past and I am on the run
from the demons creeping from my past.
Worry every breath could be my last
and if I could choose I would be blind.
I cannot escape if stuck in my own mind.
Strange how you affect me so.
It is like I cannot take the crash.

Einmanaleikinn er
hangandi á hælum mér
svo ég sæki í þig
og þú sækir í mig
innávið.
Sælublossi mig á
augnablik
en svo sektarkennd
sækir jafnharðan á
...og hvað geri ég við mig þá?
Tómið mig tekur á sína vængi
svefnlaus við svífum og vökum lengi.
