Текст песни Sift - Johnny Manchild and the Poor Bastards

Lay me down in the sand
So the ocean laps at my feet
And the salt corrodes me to bone
And pulls me into the sea

I′d sink into the blue
And sift between the teeth
Of the creatures dwelling below
And what's left will rest beneath

Oh let me down so peacefully
Oh I will sink so heavy, so free
And the lights will blur until all I see
Is what′s left here underneath

Subterranean man
Of bones and fading skin
While the world just passes me by
I can spend my days learning to swim

Again, the muscles can stem
From what seems obsolete
And someday I'll swim to the shore
And I'll find my way, back on my feet

And the world will be so bright
Like a plight upon my burning eyes
And the air will fill my newborn lungs
And I′ll find a new song to hum

Oh and the world moves on
So why can′t we?
We could shed our skin
A sweet release
Oh I can't wait to be undone
So I can start again
