Lyrics

Og við horfumst í ókunn augu
Samt höfum þekkst alla tíð
Undir vökulum augnaráðum létumst
Stöndum nú tvístíga
Reyni að grafa upp og hjartgæsku og raun
Reyni að brjótast inn
Reyni að bora á, og saga hengilásinn
En allt kemur fyrir ekki neitt
Kominn í niðurlot
Veit ekki hvað plan skal taka
Kominn í ráðaþrot
Reyni að grafa upp og hjartgæsku og raun
Reyni að brjótast inn
Reyni að bora á, og saga hengilásinn
Written by: Jón þor Birgisson
