Icelandic lyrics:
Aragrúi vonlausra væntinga

eins og óútfyllanlegt eyðublað

Ótæmandi listi vonbrigða, sjálfsvorkunnar,

vottaður stimpli fyrirlitningar

Dagur sérhver

biðröð mistaka

Biðröð mistaka

Reginskari hálfreyndra hugmynda

eins og ástarbréf ofan í tætara

Ævistarfi raðað í kompuna, neðstu hilluna

Ólesnir, rykfallnir doðrantar

Dagur sérhver

biðröð mistaka

Biðröð mistaka

Nauðbeygður opnarðu augun,

þú vissir aldrei að ég elska þig – þú varst hatari

Þrálátur en samt svo þögull,

hrópandinn í eyðimörkinni – þú hataðir

Nauðbeygður opnarðu augun,

þú vissir aldrei að ég elska þig – þú varst hatari

Þrálátur en samt svo þögull,

hrópandinn í eyðimörkinni – þú hataðir

Biðröð mistaka

Eins og ástarbréf ofan í tætara

Aragrúi

Aragrúi vonlausra væntinga

Biðröð mistaka

English lyrics:
A multitude of hopeless expectations

like an unfillable form

An inexhaustible list of disappointments, self-pity,

bears the seal of contempt

Every single day

a line of mistakes

A line of mistakes

An immense swarm of half-attempted ideas

like a love letter in a paper shredder

Your life’s work arranged in a storage room, on the lowest shelf,

unread, dusty tomes

Every single day

a line of mistakes

A line of mistakes

Forced to open your eyes,

you never knew that I love you – you hated

Persistent yet so silent,

the crier in the desert – you hated

Forced to open your eyes,

you never knew that I love you – you hated

Persistent yet so silent,

the crier in the desert – you hated

A line of mistakes

Like a love letter in a paper shredder

A multitude

A multitude of hopeless expectations

A line of mistakes
