simon armitage - extract from out of the blue lyrics

Loading...

you have picked me out.
through a distant shot of a building burning
you have noticed now
that a white cotton shirt is twirling, turning.

in fact i am waving, waving.
small in the clouds, but waving, waving.
does anyone see
a soul worth saving?

so when will you come?
do you think you are watching, watching
a man shaking crumbs
or pegging
out washing?

i am trying and trying.
the heat behind me is bullying, driving,
but the white of surrender is not yet flying.
i am not at the point of leaving, diving.

a bird goes by.
the depth is appalling. appalling
that others like me
should be wind-milling, wheeling, spiralling, falling.

are your eyes believing,
believing
that here in the gills
i am still breathing.

but tiring, tiring.
sirens below are wailing, firing.
my arm is numb and my nerves are sagging.
do you see me, my love. i am failing, flagging.
