"Ódýr" is an Icelandic song by Hatari that translates to "Cheap" in English. The song speaks about regret and the feeling of selling oneself short. The lyrics describe time passing quickly while the protagonist considers how they ended up in their current situation and why they gave up so easily. The nights are not getting any longer, and the person realizes that life has passed them by in a ring of ash-strewn hills. They look back on their decisions and can only wonder if they sold themselves short for nothing. The ashes are spread over the coffin, and no one remembers who they were. Nothing is as ordinary as a life about to end, and no one cares about their memory. The person feels buried under the cold and empty darkness and faces life alone in a bed of death. The lyrics end with a repetition of the opening lines, suggesting that the person remains stuck in a cycle of regret and self-doubt. Overall, the song describes the feeling of being forgotten and unimportant, and the sense of remorse that comes with feeling like you settled for less than you deserved.
