Lyrics
The lyrics to the song are in Icelandic.
ég læt mig líða áfram
í gegnum hausinn
hugsa hálfa leið
afturábak
sé sjálfan mig syngja fagnaðarerindið
sem við sömdum saman
við áttum okkur draum
áttum allt
við riðum heimsendi
við riðum leitandi
klifruðum skýjakljúfa
sem síðar sprungu upp
friðurinn úti
ég lek jafnvægi
dett niður
[ég læt mig líða ókka mógeiþeytíl
íkki má nanílu aðdei ná saman sam]
alger þögn
ekkert svar
en það besta sem guð hefur skapað
er nýr dagur

Video
Template:Spoiler A critically acclaimed music video was made for the song, and was hailed by some as the most powerful and moving of its time. It told the story of two preadolescent boys coming to terms with their feelings for each other, and coping with the bigotry shown towards them by their parents and society in general. The most controversial scene in the video was the climax, which involved a long and drawn-out kiss between the two boys, after one scores a goal in a soccer match. The video is availble for download on the band's site.
