Frika in terms of Norse mythology is the Godess of peace, alternative translations give it the goddess of maternal love. It seems to be that this song, is about someone being harmed/hurt in a way which he slowly becomes increasingly angry: "Blame falls easy silently. Darkness preferable, comfort found again." The person in the song, it seems has tried to reason, tried to emplor for peace. "Frika come! Inside there is anger now. Calm precedes the rage. " Even until the end they are begging for peace, the person is distraught and whilst they know their anger is wrong, they cannot help it. Emotional and very tumultuous. It seems to be a description of hatred and anger, unfounded and unreasonable. Saying regardless of how hard people try, it seems to consume them. Thats what I get anyway.
