Of Monsters and Men Lyrics
Hey
Hey
I see color raining down
Feral feeling, swaying sound
But I don't know what you want
I am open and I am restless
Let me feel it out
Let it all come out
Wake me up, I'm fever dreaming
And now I lose control, I'm fever dreaming
Shake it out, it's just what I'm feeling
And now I take control, I'm fever dreaming
(I'm fever-dreaming)
Oh-so quiet, when they laid me in the stream
And the star-lit sky grew before my eyes
Twenty-two women stood by the banks
And cried, oh I
Wake me up, I'm fever dreaming
And now I lose control, I'm fever dreaming
Shake it out, it's just what I'm feeling
And now I take control, I'm fever dreaming
(I'm fever dreaming)
I must be fever dreaming
(I'm fever dreaming)

Sometimes I think OMAM songs and music videos are just Icelandic or Nordic folklores told in a modern perspective. I effing love it.

@panDancer 13 I read that a lot but nobody has ever given a source for it. Did the artists actually say that? Because that interpretation feels very off to me

I think dirty paws is about a son wanting to or actually standing up for his mother against an abusive father. Mountain sound further supports that with him thinking of running away or actually doing so. And little talks could be about him coming home to visit his mother after leaving her with the abusive father or something happened to the father while standing up to him, which forced him to leave and return later to visit his lonely mother. This could happen in any culture. If it’s true, they just tell the story in a beautiful way.
