ólafur Arnalds

Here I am
Floating in emerald sea
Keep me dancing
Keep me as still as can be
And I try to keep the balance right
I try but it feels like wasted time

But these heavy hands
They're pulling me down on my chest
Latching on, coloring all of my flesh
Quietly, you hover over me
And I fight, but it feels like wasted time

Say goodnight
I know that I'm swallowed in sea
We collide, colors that devour me
Just say goodnight
I'm already down
I cry
I'm already down

Already down
And I cry
Already down

And I try
And I try
But it feels like wasted
