About the song[]
In a Facebook post in 2015, Aurora referred to the Utøya massacre in 2011 and to someone important to Aurora who passed away that day. She wrote:
"Today is the day. 22nd of July. It's been 4 years since you left us. Since all of you left us. how time flies, we even find ourselves forgetting for a moment, nearly moving on.. Not because we forget you, but because we remember to live. But know that I will always remember you, and everyone that went down with you. I will think of love, and send love to those who needs it this today. I hope no one is crying alone. Rest in peace my friend. You are free now."
"Little boy in the grass"[2]
Lyrics[]
I will tell you the story
About the little boy I found in the grass
Tired soul as he told me
He could hear the children wanting to pass
Sounds of laughter in the air
Still today we hear them
Finally we are over it all
Finally we are over
Over it all
(Let them run)
Let them run from the violence
The world is way too cold and bright for their eyes
Little boy runs beside them
As they take his hand and jump to the sky
Still today you hear him
Finally I am over
Over it all
Finally I am over
Over it all
When will my healing come
When will my healing come along
Sinking like a stone
When will my healing come
Along
Finally I am over it all
Finally I am over it all
Finally I am
