LYRICS
Voices render me breathless
Gotta get off of this sinking ship
But the water’s deafening
I’m still dreaming of drowning
Trying to escape this relentless planet
But my sheets are paper thin
Tuck the violence in your pillow
Surf the silence
But don’t swallow all the tears
Wishing these days could be over
Going to bed when it’s light outside
And I flew 10,000 miles
I’m seashaken and screaming
Doing my best, but I’ve got to go
Don’t expect me for a while
Tuck the violence in your pillow
Surf the silence
But don’t swallow all the tears
Tuck the violence in your pillow
Surf the silence
But don’t swallow
Tuck the violence in your pillow
Stand and fight now
Meet me tomorrow

There is such warmth in this, even though I know it must have been freezing cold when you were filming this.

[@Penfriendrocks]

Thanks for saying so! That was certainly the aim - even when things are against us we can choose to spread warmth, sort of thing :)

[@dmccann8288]

Ethereal.. capturing a fleeting emotion.. thanks, it's beautiful, the video adds to the feel of the lyrics and music 😌🙏

[@mattilett1444]

That was really rather lovely, Laura. Thank you. Looked very windy on that beach!

[@Penfriendrocks]

Thank you, Matt! It was FREEEEEZINNNNNGGGGGG but totally worth it.

[@danthemanstan7173]

Very lovely. I always loved the demo of this song - must dig it out for another listen.

[@Penfriendrocks]

I just did that - I like it!

[@danthemanstan7173]

​@@PenfriendrocksSo did I - it's got something, demos often do must be related to being at the start of the creative process.
Also the last line is different and makes it sound more like a letter with a sign-off.

[@juliageorgiou4393]

Lovely shots, Laura! I must go down to the sea again... as a poet once said!

[@Penfriendrocks]

It's so cleansing, isn't it! I felt very lucky that day.

[@martinstitchener2430]

I love it Laura, great song and video.
I hope it wasn't too cold that day at the beach.

[@Penfriendrocks]

It was FREEZING, but then there was coffee and flammkuchen so all round a bloody great day :)

[@Mountprospect1]

Those chorus harmonies are just sublime... wonderful song,

[@andypug42]

Love it Laura, can I hear a bit of Cardiacs influence in there?

[@Penfriendrocks]

I've never once listened to them - where should I start?

[@Waldemar_la_Tendresse]

One thing is definitely clear: your voice is a lot better than your Grandmother synthesizer skills. 😁

[@Penfriendrocks]

Thank goodness!
