Swimming In the Ocean

Just for a night

I'll watch from above

The too-late rites

For a long dead love

Just for a night

I'll watch from above

The too-late rite

For a long dead love

Making like defrocked priests

Going through the motions

A double-backed beast

Without the holy lotions

Generate heat

But move without emotion

An athletic feat

Like swimming in the ocean

I really did

Swim in it
