lyrics

While he sleeps, she lays awake.
There’s a fear that she can’t shake.
It’s gotten worse as she’s got older, it’s a feeling pressing on her shoulders.
She got up and seized the day -
Today she’s gonna face the waters that surround her corner.
She was hoping it would be much warmer, but still she went...

Swimming in the ocean,
Causing a commotion in the seaside town,
People gather ‘round to see her
Wading with no clothes on, singing sailors’ work songs
As she braves the waves at the ripe old age of ninety.

He went and dipped his toes,
And he shivered to the bone.
Even though his feet were freezing, he figured that he must be dreaming.
She was scared of jellyfish, all the monsters, and the abyss.
She let go of her hesitations,
And she felt a flood of liberation when she went...

She felt such fear since she lost her brother.
A stormy night left her on her own.
Fifty years it took to recover.
Now she’s breathing in, and she feels so free when she’s...
