Time lapse of Icelandic volcano

The Eyjafjallajokul eruption shown in compressed time. The song is Kolnidur by Jónsi

Here is my ultracrude translation of the lyrics (as someone who only has a passing comprehension of Icelandic)

Glowing eyes, silver night
Dead serious, staring out
A furious dog inside me

Dark descent, killing me
Dark descent, no light at all
Black and dry as coal outside
But in me, a storm rages

Dark descent, black as ink
I try and burn my boats
The distance molds us
Darkness looms, looms here
Death is near, you stop rustling

Singled out, no hope
I'm more than blind
And I, slavishly,
stepped out the door

***
corrections to the lyrics welcome

Luv this vid. Keep in mind that you can live green and  never litter , but mother nature will just laugh at you and put you back in your little hole that you crawled out of.
