Diver

It's not a screen that you pass through A shine in your eyes too bright A pool outside of a window Being pulled by the changing light I can't look directly at it Your face distorted in the window Swimming out towards my new life Dragged in by the undertow I'm Sisyphus You're the witness It's intimate The violence It's palpable To want it all It's palpable To want I can't look directly at it Your face distorted in the window Swimming out towards my new life Dragged in by the undertow The salt, the spit, the magic To last, to be romantic It's not a screen where I can call you A recording of what you said (I'm pushing up against it) All my time I have is diamonds (distorted in the window) Rolling around my head (I'm pushing up) Maybe I could be a diver Heavy on the sea bed Sliding into water Pushing up against the edge I can't look directly at it Your face distorted in the window Swimming out towards my new life Dragged back by the undertow The salt, the spit, the magic To last, to be romantic (Pushing up against it) (Can't look directly at it) (Distorted in the window) (Swimming out towards my new life)
