The day I turned my back on all you people[00:00:16]
I felt an itching in my thumbs[00:00:24]
Salt air like a broadcast from the distant dark beyond[00:00:31]
When my transformation comes[00:00:40]
I went down to the warm warm water[00:00:48]
Saw a pelican fly past[00:00:56]
Waved once at the highway and then left all that behind me[00:01:03]
I went wading through the grass[00:01:11]
And no one was gonna come and get me[00:01:19]
There wasn't anybody gonna know[00:01:25]
Even though I leave a trail of burned things in my wake[00:01:33]
Every single place I go[00:01:42]
And it was cool and it was quiet[00:02:05]
In the humid marsh down there[00:02:13]
I let my head sink down beneath the brackish water[00:02:21]
Felt it gumming up my hair[00:02:28]
The sun was sinking into the Atlantic[00:02:35]
The last time that I turned my back on you[00:02:43]
I tried to summon up a little prayer as I went under[00:02:51]
It was the best that I could do[00:02:59]
And I said let them all fare better than your serpent[00:03:05]
The reeds all pricking at my skin[00:03:15]
Here's hoping they have better luck[00:03:21]
Than I had down here with you[00:03:25]
All that water rushing in[00:03:31]
