Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ragnar Þórhallsson] I guess I like the pain more than I like my health I guess I sometimes sing to try and help myself I'm tryin' hard to smile, I'm tryin' hard to laugh I tell myself this, I tell myself that Love isn't the calm, no, love isn't the still Walking with the wind to try and catch a thrill I can see the steeple brush against the sky I see the place where we said our goodbyes [Chorus: Ragnar Þórhallsson] Yeah, it's a slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Yeah, it's a slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Slow, slow break A hard, hard shake [Verse 2: Ragnar Þórhallsson, Nanna & Ragnar] If I was lightning, I would miss the tree If I wasn't writin', I would miss the kеy If I only wanted darkness, I'd hide undеr a rock I'd never go out, I'd stay at the block Why do I always fly when I don't have my wings? Why do I collide with the world around me? I guess I'm alright I want you to sleep on the good side of me [Chorus: Ragnar & Nanna] Yeah, it's a slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Yeah, it's a slow, slow break A hard, hard shake Slow, slow break A hard, hard shake [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir] So, I don't know what I'm doin' here I woke up this spring and now I'm past the frame I gotta get away from here To outer space Even if I could hold my breath Like a balloon, float and disappear I hope I make my way to you Some brighter day [Outro: Nanna] Wrong step, right turn Wrong step, right turn I want you to sleep on the good side of me
