The Words by Dragonborn feat. Jacob Bellens - theme song of Dicte

This is the theme song to the Danish series Dicte that can be seen on Netflix. I've only watched a few episodes but will probably get more into it at some point. I love the theme song by Dragonborn. I'm including the lyrics to the song here:

As rockets fly above me
I wonder why
There's no one else around here
The sun has gone and left a
Hole in the sky
as if inside a nightmare
Running towards you to make you understand

The words that make us fall apart
Cannot be taken back
You hold the line that holds my heart
Don't let go of that
The stars that keep on falling down
Will shine on us forever
We disappear without a sound
On wings of hopeless dreams

In comes the ones who dream of
Life after love
Along with those who believe
While this girl I know, this girl that
I'm thinking of
is singing a slow melody
About the silence that we'll never escape

The words that make us fall apart
Cannot be taken back
You hold the line that holds my heart
Don't let go of that
The stars that keep on falling down
Will shine on us forever
We'll disappear without a sound
On wings of hopeless dreams

The words that make us fall apart
Cannot be taken back
You hold the line that holds my heart
Don't let go of that
The stars that keep on falling down
Will shine on us forever
We'll disappear without a sound
On wings of hopeless dreams

Raised by Wolves - Main Theme (OPENING TITLES) by Ben Frost and sung by Mariam Wallentin

You'll find the sci-fi series Raised By Wolves on HBO (Max in the USA, Nordic in Norway). I recommend it highly. It is creative, intriguing, exciting, and gripping. I'm glad to hear that it was renewed for a second season. I will write another post about the actual series soon. The theme song for the series is also haunting and emotionally-gripping and is sung by Mariam Wallentin, a Swedish musician (vocals, percussion, composer) who has done a lot of work in experimental jazz.


The lyrics, which are poetic and beautiful, are as follows: 

[Verse 1]
The door that finally opens
With light flooding in
Spilling out on the floor
The core that never was
Now it will be
The bones of what was there before
Every step, every beat
Every thought, every breath
Everything is longing
Every wind, every wave
Every sky, every cloud
Every grave is longing (2X)
Pulling you from the sky
Just like love will do

[Verse 2]
The door that finally opens
With light flooding in
Spilling out on the floor
The core that nevеr was
Now it will be
The bones of what was thеre before
Every step, every beat
Every thought, every breath
Everything is longing
Every wind, every wave
Every sky, every cloud
Every grave is longing (2X)
Pulling you from the sky
Just like love will do
Pulling you from the ground
Just like love will do
