lyrics

i’ll sleep with the fishes
bathed in the silt
in garments of seaweed
and salt on my skin
there’re chains round my ankles that
catch the light from the coastguard
this beach town’s so pretty
i should have sent you a postcard

i swim into setbacks
as strong as the tide
the sail’s in the, the boat’s moored
so i give my tired arms another try

can’t do what i love to do
there’s no heavier weight
than being this competent
at that which i hate
there’s seashells for eyeballs that
catch the light from the coastguard
this beach town’s so pretty
i should have sent you a postcard
