| [00:17.06] |
We salute at the threshold of the North Sea in my mind |
| [00:20.81] |
And a nod to the boredom that drove me here to face the tide and swim. |
| [00:26.29] |
|
| [00:30.41] |
I swim. Oh, swim. |
| [00:31.34] |
|
| [00:39.79] |
Dip the toe in the ocean. Oh how it hardens and it numbs. |
| [00:44.16] |
|
| [00:46.17] |
The rest of me is a version of man, built to collapse into crumbs. |
| [00:50.29] |
|
| [00:51.67] |
And if I hadn't come down to the coast to disappear |
| [00:55.54] |
|
| [00:57.42] |
I may have died in a land-slide of the rocks, the hopes and fears. |
| [01:02.98] |
So Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:06.04] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:07.79] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:08.33] |
|
| [01:12.39] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [01:16.15] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:18.08] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:21.08] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [01:24.14] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [01:27.53] |
|
| [01:50.78] |
Up to my knees now, do I wait? Do I dive? |
| [01:56.65] |
The sea has seen my like before though it's my first and perhaps last time. |
| [02:01.09] |
|
| [02:02.65] |
Let's call me a baptist, call this the drowning of the past. |
| [02:06.34] |
|
| [02:08.28] |
She's there on the shoreline throwing stones at my back. |
| [02:12.54] |
|
| [02:13.65] |
So Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:16.90] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:19.59] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:23.48] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [02:27.48] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:29.98] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:31.61] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [02:35.24] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [02:38.92] |
Now the water's taller than me and the land is a marker line |
| [02:42.70] |
|
| [03:08.04] |
All I am is a body adrift in water, salt and sky. |
| [03:12.60] |
So Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:16.28] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:18.53] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:21.66] |
|
| [03:22.22] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [03:25.04] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:27.04] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:31.04] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:33.85] |
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
| [03:37.29] |
So Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:39.53] |
Swim until you can't see land. |
| [03:42.16] |
Swim until you can't see land. |

Are you a man or are you a bag of sand? |
