about

This is the title track of the album. It translates as "Cardinal Sin"

lyrics

Sæðið skríður
Yfir eyðisand
Vindinn keppir við
Dregur akkeri

Sporahjólin
Hægja snúniginn
Yfir höfuð fer drekahali

Í tærri lind
Mín spegilmynd
Týnd höfuðsynd
Og gömul beinagrind

Sinueldur hitar stáleggið
Askan fýkur létt
Yfir glingrið leggst
Pýramídi hvolfi á stendur
Niður steypir sér rússíbani

Í tærri lind
Mín spegilmynd
Týnd höfuðsynd
Og gömul beinagrind
