A veces pienso que, como en Gattaca, debería meterme en el mar y nadar hacia adentro. Sin tan siquiera competir contra nadie salvo contra mis propias posibilidades de volver. Nadar hasta que no se divisara el menor signo de tierra firme. Y aguantar allí hasta desfallecer, haciéndolo solo porque para eso me he hecho así.

I may have died in a land-slide of the rocks, the hopes and fears. Am I a man or a bag of sand?

Swim until you can’t see land (Frightened Rabbit)

We salute at the threshold of the North Sea in my mind
And the nautical board-man 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
And the rest of me is a burgeoned 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?
