Events in the year 1918 in Norway.
Norway (i/ˈnɔːrweɪ/ NAWR-way; Norwegian: Norge (Bokmål) or Noreg (Nynorsk)), officially the Kingdom of Norway, is a sovereign and unitary monarchy whose territory comprises the western portion of the Scandinavian Peninsula plus the island Jan Mayen and the archipelago of Svalbard. The Antarctic Peter I Island and the sub-Antarctic Bouvet Island are dependent territories and thus not considered part of the Kingdom. Norway also lays claim to a section of Antarctica known as Queen Maud Land. Until 1814, the Kingdom included the Faroe Islands (since 1035), Greenland (1261), and Iceland (1262). It also included Shetland and Orkney until 1468.
Norway has a total area of 385,252 square kilometres (148,747 sq mi) and a population of 5,109,059 people (2014). The country shares a long eastern border with Sweden (1,619 km or 1,006 mi long). Norway is bordered by Finland and Russia to the north-east, and the Skagerrak Strait to the south, with Denmark on the other side. Norway has an extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.
Running some other way,
Got to get out
You’re already too late
To think of some other way now,
Dedicating endless plaques to friends
You’re not proud
Proud of something that’s changed
Changed your inner mind
You’re already too late;
The cycle starts with a shout loud,
What follows next was never planned,
Well, not that you knew
All words drown out
You’re falling down
--------
Reeling and feeling its dragging you down
You can’t deny
Our slow decline
But ever since I
I’ve changed you cry
This timeless lie
Is growing on me
It’s all that’s left of me
My life my fight my time my vice my crime
You'll never relate to what it feels like
Cos its already too late
To feel a thing when your
Insides, are full of hate
And there's no way to fake decisions
It’s a subliminal fate
It wraps itself round
Your fear of what is blowing away
The world it seems
Is weighing down on you like a mirror
Is it just a splinter
Of all we lost
-----------
Caught in the spotlight but no-one is ever looking at you
You can’t deny
Our slow decline
Accelerates mine
I’ve changed you cry
This timeless lie
Is growing on me
It’s all that’s left of me
My life my fight my time my vice my crime
------------------------------------------+
All that you break is our shared fall
But you cant recall
