I read about a man getting drowned once |
| [00:12.43] |
His friends thought he was waving to them |
| [00:14.74] |
From the sea but really, he was drowning |
| [00:17.27] |
And then I thought that, in a way, it is true of life too |
| [00:22.07] |
That a lot of people pretend, out of bravery really |
| [00:25.86] |
That they are very jolly and ordinary sort of chaps |
| [00:28.72] |
But really they do not feel at home at all in the world |
| [00:32.32] |
Or able to make friends easily |
| [00:34.64] |
So then they joke a lot and laugh |
| [00:37.51] |
And people think they're quite alright and jolly nice too |
| [00:40.31] |
But sometimes that brave pretense breaks down |
| [00:44.15] |
And then, like the poor man in this poem, they are lost |
| [00:50.26] |
Not waving, but drowning |
| [00:53.48] |
