Teitur The Singer lyrics

I always had the voice and now I am a singer
The audience grows silent when I open up my mouth
I sing the words I've written every night before a crowd
As if I was a poet or some legendary mind

They wonder what I'm doing up there on the stage
They stare at my posture and say I speak so well
I sing about my loneliness and in return they thank me
I'd never meant to be a singer
But I'm slowly getting used to the idea


I'm part of this whole moment that people come to see
They drive for seven hours from all across the country
We raise our voice in unison at the end of the show
People break into tears for reasons I don't know
They just want to understand me and I sing too be loved
