The Earth was too hot, the air was too thin
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
I crawled to the sea that was crawling from me
So I could swim, yeah, so I could swim!
I was sick of the land, I was sick from the heat
I was sick of the sun and the sky and the trees
Over the air that I needed to breathe
When I held with my hands, when I walked on my feet
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
Started shedding my arms to start getting my fins
Crawled to the sea that was calling for me
So I could swim, swim the ocean wide
I was only just past the low tide
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing my spine
I was sick with horror when my curtain fell
It's the end of the story I was certain to tell
Watching their faces as they pulled me from the sea
Feeling for the place I thought my gills would be
Busted and wrecked, justly infected
My body beyond repair
Had no objection sir, my only questions were
Where do I go and will I know when I'm there?
But I really couldn't say that I cared
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing, yeah, my spine
I was already losing my spine
But life was short
At least it was short
The Earth was too hot, the air was too thin
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
I crawled to the sea that was crawling from me
So I could swim, yeah, so I could swim!
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing, yeah, my spine
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
I crawled to the sea that was crawling from me
So I could swim, yeah, so I could swim!
I was sick of the land, I was sick from the heat
I was sick of the sun and the sky and the trees
Over the air that I needed to breathe
When I held with my hands, when I walked on my feet
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
Started shedding my arms to start getting my fins
Crawled to the sea that was calling for me
So I could swim, swim the ocean wide
I was only just past the low tide
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing my spine
I was sick with horror when my curtain fell
It's the end of the story I was certain to tell
Watching their faces as they pulled me from the sea
Feeling for the place I thought my gills would be
Busted and wrecked, justly infected
My body beyond repair
Had no objection sir, my only questions were
Where do I go and will I know when I'm there?
But I really couldn't say that I cared
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing, yeah, my spine
I was already losing my spine
But life was short
At least it was short
The Earth was too hot, the air was too thin
I took off my clothes, I took off my skin
I crawled to the sea that was crawling from me
So I could swim, yeah, so I could swim!
When I died, when I died
Yeah, when I died, my head did swell
I said to myself, nature sure took its sweet time
I was already losing, yeah, my spine
