That Morning
That morning, he opened his eyes.
He felt the breeze coming in from the street.
And as he lifted his heavy head,
he saw a new day coming.
Without a warning, it is when it began.
This was a new day.
New light filled his eyes with colors of clarity.
And as the heart skipped a beat,
he dreamed of the future that the day could behold.
That morning, as he opened his eyes,
he let the light come on in, as for the first time round.
And so he drifted from what there once was.
He saw a new day coming.
Without a warning, it is when it began.
This was a new day.
New light filled his eyes with colors of clarity.
And as the heart skipped a beat,
he dreamed of the future that the day could behold.
This was a new day…
New light…
filled his eyes with colors of clarity.
And the heart skipped a beat.
So behold...

Daybreak
Daybreak,
Why’d you have to come so soon?
Daybreak,
Won’t you spare a little moment still?
Won’t you leave me alone?
Just for a bit, why won’t you?
I am pleading, please!
The world can wait this place cannot.
Daybreak,
Why did you have to come so soon?
Daybreak,
oh tell me why the haste?
Oh why oh why...
This calling leaves me stranded like a ghost.
Dawn or day,
It’s all the same.
Wish I could stay here,
with the songbird of the night.
Trapped in twilight,
lost between two worlds.
I’d rather be lost with you than to be found!
Daybreak,
Why’d you have to come so soon?
Daybreak…
Daybreak…

Sea song
Shore is not in sight for now.
Keep my faith in stars aligned.
Feed my sails to the hungry breeze.
Let them play until they want me no more.
Walls of blue, take me in!
Warm embrace of the cold, cold, cold deep.
Shattered light in salty rain.
Seek my soul, look for land.
Bring this breath to life again.
Let the tides turn, take me home.
Walls of blue, take me in!
Warm embrace of the cold, cold, cold deep.
Sweet deep sea, lead me home!
I´ll follow thee, to the shore.
Feed my sails to the hungry breeze.
Let them play until they want me no more.

Swiftly siren
Feline figure, standing still.
Like a portrait of the rain in a freeze frame.
Can’t bear to breathe,
with those eyes on me.
A loss for words, can’t describe this sight for sore eyes.
Please make me break and loose my shelter.
Can’t bear to breathe,
with those eyes on me.
Can’t bear to breathe,
with those eyes on me.
Look beneath the surface,
deep within the sea.
See the other side,
of the bewildering moon.
Let me show you the other side…
Can’t bear to breathe,
Keep those eyes on me.

Misturmóða
Vegurinn liggur um fáfarinn dal.
Regnið dynur, fellur niður.
Ég minnist þess sem eitt sinn var,
er ég tilbið mitt hulda dýrshjarta.
En ávallt stígandi ber allt mitt hugarþel.
Því ég forynju ver og upp í móti fer.
Þó misturmóða gleypa kunni mig,
þá veit ég hvert leiðin liggur.
Ég tek mitt skref og það mig ber,
uns fjarðarins mynni, hverfur að sinni.
Misturmóða, Misturblámi tekur mig.
Þó veit ég hvert ég fara vil.
Vegurinn liggur um fáfarinn dal.
Regnið dynur, fellur niður.
Ég tek mitt skref og það mig ber,
uns fjarðarins mynni, hverfur að sinni.
En ávallt stígandi ber allt mitt hugarþel.
Því ég forynju ver og upp í móti fer.
