BArdaginn

Ek em hjá þér allri tíð
Ástarvin sló máttahríð
En þó er morginn dulit mér
Ok fǿrir bardaginn sitt frer

Eigi sjám vér fram á leið
Vánar veg verð eigi breið
Þó eigi óttask skulum vér
Því ógnin er alt komin hér

Galdrinn minn mun gjalla
Galdrinn minn skal gjalla
Brjótumk ek
Þegar ek vex

Ek em hjá þér allri tíð
Fyrir bakka, upp á hlíð
Morginninn gefr eigi hlé
En verðandi er Þó mitt vé

Galdrinn minn mun gjalla
Galdrinn minn skal gjalla
Augabragð fyrir Þér
Ævi fyrir mér

Borders

On the borders of safety, that’s where I find peace
where the black sand meets the raging seas
I see the forces for what they truly are
Yet I’m reminded of my beating heart

Among the lonely rocks is where I lay my head
I hear the ocean calling «come with me instead»

She sings me songs of ungrateful souls
Who once thought Gods could bring them home

On the borders of safety, that’s where I find peace
Where the black sand meets the raging seas
I see the forces for what they truly are
Yet I’m reminded of my beating heart

I could swear, that the ocean sings and the mountains talk to me
I could swear, that I hear her breath and her heartbeat in the air
I could swear…
I could swear…

On the edge of comfort, that’s where I find love
and the ocean already knows
She can’t love you like you love her
There’s no mercy from Mother Earth

 

The Waiting Game

Verse
There’s a fire inside me
Waiting for something
Waiting for something
Burning uncontrollably
If I do nothing
If I do nothing

Pre Chorus
I’m waiting for you
You’re waiting for me
Afraid of what we’ll find
If we let words run free

Chorus
You got me stuck in a daze,
you’re wondering what not to say
I am not thinking clearly
when you’re saying my name
I look you deep in the eye,
you wonder if I will stay
Until the heat of the moment
takes us away

Verse
Cannot hide you spark my flame
Whether you feed it or not
We both play the waiting game
No one will win in the end

Pre Chorus
I’m waiting for you
You’re waiting for me
Afraid of what we’ll find
If we let words run free

Chorus
You got me stuck in a daze,
you’re wondering what not to say
I am not thinking clearly
when you’re saying my name
I look you deep in the eye,
you wonder if I will stay
Until the heat of the moment
takes us away
Instrumental
Chorus repeat

 

Slow Motion

Got a million things to distract my mind
There’s a million ways I could spend my time
Keeping me from who I need to be
Distracting me from what I need to do

...


I dive into an infinite ocean
It makes me devoid of all emotion
I am running in slow-motion
I am running in slow-motion
Forever

Got a single plan for this life of mine
But there’s a million failures awaiting trial
Guide my feet so they can touch the ground
Ignore the noise, till it won’t make a sound

...

I dive into an infinite ocean
It makes me devoid of all emotion
I am running in slow-motion
I am running in slow-motion
Forever

I am running in slow-motion
I am running in slow-motion

Forever...

 

Naive

A constant uphill run
Better than being ever comfortably numb
Wrong place and wrong time

Without inhibition I’m aiming for the highest climb    

On the outside looking in
Not sure what I’ll find as I close my eyes to search within 
Somewhere in between myself there’s a fighter 
who only needs a chance to win

I fall in line 
(I’m falling in line)
I bide my time
(I’m biding my time)

I fall in line   
I bide my time
One by one  
To be called by none
Three, two, one… 

Too old to get behind
Too young to yet be satisfied 
Too bitter to receive
Always so proud, but still insecure and so naive


Too old to get behind
Too young to yet be satisfied
Too bitter to receive
Always so proud, yet so very naive  
A constant uphill run
Wrong place and wrong time   
I’m aiming for the highest climb, 
So next time
When I get the chance I’ll…

 

Virkelighetens Etterklang

Vers
Hvor er jeg nå?
Hvor er jeg nå?
Våket opp og
Vil bare gå, tilbake

Refreng
La meg falle ned
Åpne døren til et sted
Jeg må tørre å få fred
Ta meg dit ja ta meg hel
La meg falle ned

Vers
Hvor er jeg nå?
Hvor er jeg nå?
Våket opp og
Vil bare gå, tilbake

Refreng
La meg falle ned
Åpne døren til et sted
Jeg må tørre å få fred
Ta meg dit ja ta meg hel
La meg falle ned

Bridge
Borte vekk og langt ifra,
Minner om et sted jeg var
Følelsen jeg hadde da,
sterkere enn noen gang
... Virkelighetens etterklang

Refreng
La meg falle ned
Åpne døren til et sted
Jeg må tørre å få fred
Ta meg dit ja ta meg hel
La meg falle
La meg falle ned
Våkne opp et annet sted
Jeg må tørre å se ned
Å stirre inn i mørkets sjel
Ta meg dit ja ta meg hel
La meg falle ned

 

Ensom

Du er kjølig bak et lukket sinn
Er det bare jeg som ikke slipper inn?
I byen er du natteravn
Er det bare jeg som ikke finner fram? 
Jeg ville bare si ifra
Du kan snakke med meg om alt, er du ensom?
Finnes mange grunner til å bli
Men hvis ingen av dem strekker til, vær snill å si no   

Ooh ooh
Har du noen å være med?
Ooh ooh
Har du noen å dele med?

Så ofte jeg tenkte på
om jeg skulle bli eller om jeg skulle gå
Snøen pakker alle lyder inn
Klarer ikke lenger kjenne varmen din 
Lurer på om jeg skal si ifra
Kan jeg snakke med deg i kveld?
Jeg er ensom 
Finnes mange grunner til å bli
Finnes også mange grunner til å ikke si no 

Ooh ooh
Har jeg noen å være med?
Ooh ooh
Har jeg noen å dele med? 

En som meg 
kan og være en som deg, 
kan og være ensom
kan og være ensom

Er det noen som ser?

At en som meg 
kan og være en som deg, 
kan og være ensom
kan og være ensom

 

Brave New World

Verse
Close your eyes and sleep
Ignore all the burdens that you keep
Come whatever may
They could never harm you anyway

Verse
Stirrings in the wind
Resonates a whisper from within
Warnings from afar
Telling you to heed the morning star

Verse
Waking from the dream
Witnessing the smoke that’s rolling in
The end is what you fear
The scent of embers lingers in the air

Bridge
It’s like a web there is no escape from
It’s got you trapped and you long for freedom
Every wish every dream was granted
Never knowing what they demanded
You see the wall how it’s getting higher
You want to fight but you’re all divided
It’s not a world anyone could thrive in
Is this the world we were meant to grow in?
Somebody tell me where are we going?

Verse
A brave new world will rise
If we do not act upon its lies
Hold your tongues no more
Learn from all the ones who came before

Outro
Catch the wind and fight the storm
Through the fury we’re holding on
Take your time but not too long
Make it worth the time you own

You woke a fire inside of me
Fanned the flame and made it breath
You woke a fire inside of me
Inside of me
Inside of me

 

On the Run

Rough and ragged over land and sea
Sacrificed it all for the means to be free
Hunters of fortune in the search for a home
Leaving all their loved ones for a place unknown
Rough and ragged ...

You were born to lose 
You were taught to run

Beneath the breaking waves 
Reaching for the sun

There’s a future along these shores
Will you join the chorus, dare to ask for more?
Watch the dreamers, they’re just like you
Opportunity is only for the lucky few
There’s a future…

You were forced to choose 
To leave your world behind
Drifting with the tides
Afraid to cross the line

If you reach the shores,
Ask yourself once more
What will you become?

You were born to lose
You were taught to run
  Always forced to chose at the barrel of a gun

Always on the news

(He’s a foreigner looks like a foreigner) 
 
Fading with the views
(She’s a foreigner doesn't belong in here) 
Easy to ignore 
  (Can’t ignore that...) 
Until they come ashore 

We told stories of the home of the brave
Everyone consuming the masquerade

If you want freedom
there’s a price to pay
Yet everyone’s been paying, and still, we’re not the same 

 

Wonderland

Far out, away from man
I find my wonderland
I fall asleep beneath the trees
Close my eyes as if to leave

And if you wonder where I’ve been
I have retreated to scale the mountain
Don’t worry ‘bout me or where I am
I’m in my wonderland, in my wonderland

Deep down I am at ease
Past the edge of my believes
There’s no story without me
I paint I write, I set them free

So if you wonder where I’ve been
I’ve retreated to scale the mountain
Don’t worry ‘bout me or where I am
I’m in my wonderland, in my wonderland

Inside my mind
I leave it all behind

But if you wonder where I’ve been
I have retreated to scale the mountain
Don’t worry ‘bout me or where I am
I’m in my wonderland, in my wonderland

So don’t you wonder where I’ve been
I have ascended, I’ve scaled the mountain
Don’t worry ‘bout me or where I am
I’m in my wonderland, this is my wonderland

 

With You

You took me far away
along a hidden trail
A haven undefined
A moment caught in time 

Nowhere I’d rather be
No one I’d rather be with
My restless heart remains
with you

We’re only passing through
Without the means to choose 
Just how our paths unwind 
Yet I’ve made up my mind

Nowhere I’d rather be
No one I’d rather be with
My restless heart remains
with you

With you
With You

 

It Gets Easier

I know it’s hard to find
But somewhere along the line
it gets easier

I know it’s hard to find
But somewhere along the line
it gets easier
It gets easier
It gets easier
It gets easier

 

Heal My Soul

I am sorry I am
...For before
Everything I put you in and more
I don’t always know what it all means
To be there for someone in their time of need
Never told you that, but you deserve to know
Can you please forgive so I can heal my soul?
Heal my soul
Heal my soul
 

Concrete Landscapes

Verse
This place was never meant to be our home
This land was in possession of no one
We settled in belief that seeds would grow
A promise that we’d harvest what we’d sow

Verse
This place was never meant to be our home
This land was in possession of no one
From fields of green grew towers made of stone
It breaks my heart and all that I have known

Chorus
Silently I walk among these concrete landscapes
Rupturing our roots so we will leave or fade away
Watching my surroundings being ravaged by their greed
Replaced by someone’s vision to create the concrete dream

 

Lullaby

Ep cover - Front - Digital V2 1,3MB.jpg
Verse
Sleep my child
In the deep we’ll hide
Lullabies I sing
She’ll make you heavy taking you in

And I hear her crows
Calling from afar
Steadily she goes
Coming for us all

Verse
Dream away
I do nothing but pray
We’re broken by the storm
She opens the door,
and welcomes us home

I wait for the plague
She leaves her withered trail

Chorus
Cause the sky will break
And the earth will decay
As we run to hide
From the hills she glides

Verse
The world is frozen still
Rather end it now than wait until
we wither from within
She embraces my lungs
Breathing me in

I am but the plague
She leaves her withered trail

Chorus
The sky it breaks
And the earth it decays
I close my eyes
To her lullabies
The sky it breaks
And the earth it decays
In the howling tide,
I sing the lost souls's cry

 

Across the Sea

Ep cover - Front - Digital V2 1,3MB.jpg
Verse
It’s hard to leave
Hills and woods all around have been my home
I remember the morning fog
I remember the sparkling snow

And I wont forget, the mountains

And I wont forget, the mountains



Verse
Travel travel travel alone
Away from home and out in the unknown
I have memories of a summer breeze
I have memories of the winter trees

No I wont forget, the mountains

No I wont forget, the mountains


 

What Do You Know About Love?

Verse
I'm not afraid of this earth
I always proved my worth
Even if my arrow's in the heart of the siren
There aint nothing that can stop his mind from wandering

To You
To You

Chorus
What do you know, what do you know, about Love?
What do you know, what do you know, about Love?


Verse
I’m not afraid of his hurt
I always proved my worth
Even though I know for whom this heart is beating
There aint nothing that can stop her now from bleeding

For You
For You

Chorus
What do you know, what do you know, about Love?
What do you know, what do you know, about Love?

Eg e'kje redd for verda
Eg ska meg alltids klara

 

Onto the Fire

Onto The Fire - Artwork - NEW 5,8MB.jpg

Verse
The crowd of the people I hear
The crowd of the people I hear
The crowd of the people I hear
The crowd of the people I hear

The echoes of water drops
On the cold wet ground
Rats are crawling all around

Verse
The voices of men I hear
The voices of men I hear
They release me from my chains
But I heard them say
This one will not be saved

Verse
This is as close to freedom
This is as close to freedom
This is as close to freedom
This is as close to freedom

They open up the doors
And I see the crowd
For once now I am free
And for that I’m proud
I will not no I will not bow

Verse
On to the fire
On to the fire
with me
On to the fire
On to the fire
with me
They tie me to the pole
I never sold my soul
I know where I will go
Where the gardens grow
For the ones that I have loved
Are the ones I owe
In their kingdom of flames
I shall take my throne

They say that what you reap is what you sow

 

Rest Your Soul

Onto The Fire - Artwork - NEW 5,8MB.jpg

Verse
Walk walk walk
On this endless road
Fly fly fly
Away, with your heavy load

Laugh laugh laugh
Strangers will always greet
Cry cry cry
For all the friends you’ll never meet again

Rest your soul
Rest your soul

Pre Chorus
You, oh you have travelled far
You’ve seen the world dance
You been around it all

Chorus
You walk in the sun you walk in the rain
You heard that the time could heal every pain
You cannot heal your wounded scars
By leaving all the people that one day could break your heart

Rest your soul
Rest your soul

Verse
Run run run,
It’s not a sin
But if you can’t look back
You’ll never win

Wait wait now
Don’t be scared
Open your eyes
Dare to confront your fears
again

Rest your soul
Rest your soul

Pre Chorus
You, oh you have travelled far
Where does your heart lead?
You run from who you are

Chorus
You walk in the sun you walk in the rain
You heard that the time could heal every pain
You cannot heal your wounded scars
By leaving all the people that one day could break your heart

Rest your soul
Restless Soul

 

Not Some Fairytale

Verse
I will follow you like the river follows its path, follows its path
I will follow you like the leaves caught in a breeze, caught in a breeze
There’s no doubt what I want to be, by your side for eternity
Take my hand and follow my dance, don’t you see this is true romance?

Pre Chorus
I’m your woman, you’re my man
Come with me lets cross the land
Take my hand and follow me
You’ll be safe here...

Chorus
You’re my man
And the wind and the river, I can outrun oh outrun them all
I feel your heart
Pounding and quivering, come to oh come to my call
Cause you’re my man

Verse
I will follow you like a wolf hunting its prey, hunting its prey
You shall follow me like the tide, a slave to the moon, to the moon
There’s a place far over the hills,
don’t be scared we’ll share all the thrills
Take my hand and follow my lead,
save your prayers, save your please

Pre Chorus
Ill take care of you my man
Do you know just what I am
This is not some fairy tail
Il have you now...

Chorus
Cause you’re my man
And the wind and the river,
I can outrun oh outrun them all
I feel your heart
Pounding and quivering come to oh come to my call
Cause you’re my man
And the wind and the river,
I can outrun oh outrun them all
I feel your heart
Beating and quivering oh come to oh come to my call
Cause you’re my man...

 

Sell Your Voice

Redigert for Sync webside.jpg

Verse
Don’t waste your voice on lies
Comon along, it will be just fine

Don’t waste an early night

You know you want to do what’s right

Listen, embrace the sound

of people together who stand their ground


Watch the sun go down
We feel the tension all around



Chorus
Give it a go
Give it a shout
Sell your voice to the night


Verse

Don’t waste your time being shy

You have a heart you know where love lies
Promise me you’ll try
Don’t let this chance just pass you by

Step up, we are as one
Together we can change but not alone
You decide where to go

You are the ones to create your show

Verse

Hear me when I break out loud
I can’t hold it in now, sing it out
If you feel what I say now,
Don’t hold it back just spit it out

Chorus
Give it a go
Give it a shout
Sell your voice to the night
