Jólaköttur
if you had worn the sweater
that your mother bought on sale
no visit from the yule cat
but now your blood will spill
(chorus)
he will strip your flesh
and bleach you like an oyster in the sun
he will find you next
no matter how far or fast you run
you cried on Christmas morning
when socks and shirts were found
now he haunts your every movement
he strikes without a sound
(chorus)
he will strip your flesh
and bleach you like an oyster in the sun
he will find you next
no matter how far or fast you run
(Jólaköttur singing)
Crimson rivers make their way down below
Feel my paws as they sink in the snow
Try to run, try to hide, take flight
No reprieve, no absolution tonight
I will find you, take my claws to your chest
sink my teeth into your tiny human neck
In the morning the church bells will ring
At your grave, they will gather and sing
Na Na Na
Na Na Na
Na Na Na

went into the trees
fell down on my knees
you wouldn't believe
what happened to me
I'm so far away
I'm so far away
you wouldn't believe
no you wouldn't believe
(chorus)
don't run away my love
did I give the impression?
that I gave up flesh and blood
to turn to an obsession
let them cry that the end is near
it's come and gone girl, and I'm still here -
don't run away my love
please hear my last confession
---
a stone in a field
an echo of real
I cannot feel
I cannot feel
I'm so far away
I'm so far away
I won't ever leave
you wouldn't believe
(chorus)
don't run away my love
did I give the impression?
that I gave up flesh and blood
to turn to an obsession
let them cry that the end is near
it's come and gone girl, and I'm still here -
don't run away my love
don't run away
(solo)
don't run away my love
did I give the impression?
that I gave up flesh and blood
to turn to an obsession
let them cry that the end is near
it's come and gone girl, and I'm still here -
don't run away my love
please hear my last confession

Utterly hypnotic, heavy, and ethereal beyond what I can aptly describe here. It'll take you careening down a kaleidoscopic wormhole of audial bliss.
