歌词
As I swan dive into the estuary, the birds do not flinch at my fall
我用燕式跳水跃入河口，鸟儿们丝毫不因我而畏缩
They perch in the rafters, before, during, after: they do not notice me at all
它们栖息在椽子上，在这之前、之中、之后：它们压根没有注意到我
As I float down into the estuary, wind cases my body in cool
当我漂流到河口时，风带走了我全部的热量。
I smell petrol fumes, see the smoke rise in plumes: the earth is one big fireball，the earth is one big fireball
我闻到了汽油味，烟飘翎般升起：地球成了一整个大火球，地球成了一整个大火球

As I break the film of the estuary, the seaweed submerges my form
当我打破河口的薄膜时，海藻淹没了我的躯干
No passing cars stop, not a single jaw drops, as my wallet and keys sink before.
没有过往车辆驻留，没有一个人受惊，因为我的钱包和钥匙都已经沉如水中。
A splash all I left in the world
我所留在这世上的不过一滩水花。

Once held a magpie in the palm of my hand and the blood in our veins flowed faster, as I'd planned
有一次，我将一只喜鹊捧在掌心，我们血管里滚动的血液都加速了，正如我所计划的那样
Got a heart full of love and a head full of more but a fist full of threads from the seams
一颗满载爱的心和更满溢爱的脑袋，但拳头上却满是接缝的线
and I saw a smile in that beak.
我从鸟喙上看出了一抹微笑。
