lyrics

this girl was busy floating in the Pacific south
Spitzbergen hit the surface a mile off
strobes of radiation erupted by
her charter slowly slurps in its only drink
she feels somehow sincere
she drains away from fear
she's drawn to a boat that disappears

she's got a headache from facing east
her kicking pivots towards the wreck

she knows while lacking why
something's wrong
current or the clarity is pulling her
with a wide-eyed, frantic rush,
and water closing up,
Charlene went as a magnet on Halloween

she's sinks through the window pane
this silver roof is her last picture frame
she knows she'll never come up again
so she's sad she'll never be young again
