freefall

The Wild Blue Yonder, Werner Herzog

FreeFall, Laurie Anderson (clic sur l'image)

you're out on the ocean and you get pulled down

freefall to the bottom

like when you're drowning or falling asleep

you get turned around

and when you think you're swimming to the surface

you're swimming straight down

down to the bottom

all the way to the bottom

secret codes and cryptograms

I'm lost in your words

I'm swimming

we're going down to the bottom

all the way to the bottom

rapture of the deep

I got your letter

I couldn't read it

it was a cryptogram

did it say take me with you or take me as I am?

we're going down to the bottom

all the way to the bottom

we get turned around

there is another world spinning inside of this one

I remember where I came from

there were tropical breezes

and a wide open sea I remember my childhood

I remember being free

we're going down to the bottom

all the way to the bottom

we get turned around

there is another world inside of this one

rapture of the deep

we're going down to the bottom

there is another world spinning inside of this one
