We salute at the threshold of the North Sea in my mind
And a nod to the boredom that drove me here to face the tide and swim.
I swim. Oh, swim.
Dip the toe in the ocean. Oh how it hardens and it numbs.
The rest of me is a version of man, built to collapse into crumbs.
And if I hadn't come down to the coast to disappear
I may have died in a land-slide of the rocks, the hopes and fears.
So swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Up to my knees now, do I wait? Do I dive?
The sea has seen my like before though it's my first and perhaps last time.
Let's call me a baptist, call this the drowning of the past.
She's there on the shoreline throwing stones at my back.
So swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Now the water's taller than me and the land is a marker line
All I am is a body adrift in water, salt and sky.
So swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land.
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man or are you a bag of sand?
Der musikalische text SWIM UNTIL YOU CAN'T SEE LAND von FRIGHTENED RABBIT ist auch in dem Album vorhanden The winter of mixed drinks (2010)
Frightened Rabbit è un gruppo indie rock scozzese formatosi nel 2003 da Scott Hutchison (voce, chitarra), Billy Kennedy (chitarra) e Grant Hutchison (batteria). Inizialmente progetto solista di Scott, il nome Frightened Rabbit deriva dal titolo di una canzone scritta durante gli studi all'università. Le prime registrazioni erano demo realizzate con un Tascam 4-track, caratterizzate da un suono lo-fi ma già ricco di talento e personalità. Nel corso degli anni, la formazione si è consolidata in trio e il sound ha maturato un approccio più pop, pur mantenendo l'intensità emotiva tipica dell'indie rock. Tra i brani rappresentativi: "The Modern Leper", "Swim Until You Can't See Land" e "My Backwards Walk". L'album di debutto, "Sing the Greener Grass", risale al 2006, seguito da altri lavori apprezzati dalla critica come "Midnight Organ Fight" (2008) e "The Winter of Mixed Drinks" (2010). La band ha collaborato con artisti come The National e Belle and Sebastian. Nel 2016, il frontman Scott Hutchison è tragicamente scomparso, lasciando un vuoto nel panorama musicale indie.
