Light Leave Me

Keep Shelly in Athens - Hauntin' Me (D. Paris Remix)

Life was hard on Iceland, even before the recession. 
But the proud people of Iceland always kept their spirits up.
Recorded in Veszprem, Hungary, featuring samples from Jan Johansson, Mike Patton and John Cage.

"A raven slept in a rock-rift!
A cold winter night
makes him feel sorry.
Before the beautiful day went away,
he, with his frozen nose, moved 
underneath a large stone.

Everything outside is frozen;
there is nothing on the shore anymore.
Hunger is in my stomach.
When I go to the houses,
boldly, a dog forbids me 
to pick something from the garbage."



Krummavísur feat. Kristján Guðjónsson

I'm not good in a crowd,
I got skills I can't speak of

Things I've seen will chase me
To the grave

I'm not good in a crowd,
I got skills I can't speak of
Over there

Things that I've seen
Will chase me to the grave

Led with your hands tied
Fetters and flies

You stumble the dunes
Complain to the moon

Backs to the wheel
There's granite to shove

Take it
They give it
So rivet for rivet
I will pilfer my family a bulletproof love

How does it feel

The weight of the steel?

The weight of the steel
The flat of the blade

How does it feel
To kneel at defeat?

To kneel at defeat
At the choices you make

I'm not good in a crowd,
I got skills I can't speak of

Things I've seen will chase me
To the grave

Backs to the wheel
There's granite to shove

Take it
They give it
And rivet for rivet
I will build for my family a bulletproof love
