Yes these are the english lyrics - I couldn't find a way to follow the Icelandic

EbThen strikes
BbA blinding light
CmThen they melt
EbThe end
EbAnd flows in
BbThe daylight
GmNow it drags and pulls
CmAnd tears out every particle
GmJoints ache
CmAnd crack, they are dislocated
GmBlood runs in the veins
CmIn the skin
EbYour (skin)
EbIt digs its claws
BbAnd lacerates
GmNow it drags and pulls
CmAnd tears out every particle
GmJoints ache
CmAnd crack, they are dislocated
GmWe raise our bowed bodies
CmThe spine we straighten
GmBlood runs in the veins
In this middle section mess around with palm muting the c notes and scratch and bow 
(like Jonsi) to your heart's content.

We plunge in

glance

Then strikes

A blinding light

Then they melt

The end

And flows in

The daylight

Now it drags and pulls

And tears out every particle

Joints ache

And crack, they are dislocated

Blood runs in the veins

In the skin

Your (skin)

It digs its claws

And lacerates

Now it drags and pulls

And tears out every particle

Joints ache

And crack, they are dislocated

We raise our bowed bodies

The spine we straighten

Blood runs in the veins

In this middle section mess around with palm muting the c notes and scratch and bow

(like Jonsi) to your heart's content.

Don't tell anyone

Now it drags and pulls

And tears out every particle

Joints ache

And crack, they are dislocated

We raise our bowed bodies

The spine we straighten

Blood runs in the veins
