Through me

[00:19.51] Picture a man, seen like a speck out from this shore

[00:24.30] Swimming out beyond the breakers like he's done his life before

[00:29.34] He feels a coming of the squall will drag him out a greater length

[00:33.87] But knows his strength and tries to gather it

[00:38.65] And he swims on, turning back to shore again

[00:43.43] Above the outer atmosphere of a world he's never seen

[00:48.21] And looking down to his new home, he feels the rising of a wave

[00:53.02] And knows, at once, he will not weather it

[00:57.51] Like that man, I looked down into the depths when I met you

[01:04.42] I couldn't measure it

[01:07.09] Any time I'd struggled on

[01:11.60] Against the course, out on my own

[01:16.63] Every time, I'd burn through the world, I'd see

[01:21.15] That the world, it burns through me

[01:26.22] But when I'd (when I'd) let go (I'd let go)

[01:30.71] My struggling form (my struggling form)

[01:33.11] My willing soul (I'd see)

[01:35.49] Every time (each time I'd)

[01:38.04] I'd flow through the world, I'd see (flow through)

[01:40.17] That the world (the world)

[01:42.55] It flows through me (it flows through me)

[01:45.48] That the world, it flows through me

[02:08.60] Picture a grave, picture six feet freshly dug

[02:13.65] The sharp temporary walls at the long-term cliff edge of the world

[02:18.43] Light and air find some new deepness there and usher down the sky

[02:22.95] Where one stands by, tries to make sense of it

[02:27.72] Try measure loss, measure the silence of a house

[02:32.78] The unheard footsteps at the doorway, the unemployment of the mouth

[02:37.28] The waking up, having forgotten and remembering again

[02:42.07] The full extent of what forever is

[02:46.86] With each grave, I think of loss and I can only think of you

[02:53.75] I couldn't measure it

[02:56.41] Any time I've struggled on (I struggled on)

[03:00.94] Against the course (against the course)

[03:03.32] Out on my own (I'd see)

[03:05.70] Every time (each time I'd)

[03:08.36] I'd burn through the world, I'd see (burn through)

[03:10.49] That the world (the world)

[03:12.62] It burns through me (it burns through me)

[03:15.27] But when I (when I), I'd let go (I'd let go)

[03:19.78] My struggling form (my struggling form)

[03:22.20] My willing soul (I'd see)

[03:24.83] Every time (each time I'd)

[03:27.23] I'd flow through the world, I'd see (flow through)

[03:29.61] That the world (the world)

[03:31.74] It flows through me (it flows through me)

[03:34.39] That the world, it flows through me
