Lyrics

Phantom

[Verse 1: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

All this time wasted and all this time gone

You are still waiting on me

Everytime you leave the house, remember you're not safe

But you are hardly ever

[Verse 2: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

All those times that I could swear I heard you speak

You spoke in such low voice

Of how if you could choose, you would choose not to feel

'Cause you are hardly ever happy

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

Sometimes I find myself standing in those stairs

With eyes so blank and unsure

Realising this is not where I want to be

And not where I want to go

[Verse 4: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

And I don't mean to somehow always disagree

But I feel that you do not see

In order to love, you have to be all you can be

Mostly you have to love yourself

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 5: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir & Ragnar Þórhallsson, Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

Oh, with all this time wasted and all this time gone

You are still waiting on me

Oh, but if I could choose, I would choose not to feel

'Cause I am hardly ever happy

[Outro: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]

I am hardly ever happy, mmh

Mmh

I am hardly ever happy

[Instrumental Outro]
