[00:00.00] Floating Away
[00:27.79] It's the weight I'm trying
[00:29.68] To get inside the frame
[00:31.13] I've been painting a fat man
[00:37.57] He's big and fat and heavy
[00:40.89] As a man can be
[00:46.34] But he's been floating away, floating away
[00:58.51] He's been floating away from me
[01:05.76] In the mirror my withering skin
[01:09.62] Is a thorny pleasure
[01:15.73] I stand unflinching
[01:16.01] And I mark each crease and sting
[01:24.60] My brush my wooden flail
[01:28.55] My ancient thresher
[01:34.74] As unforgiving time flays everything
[02:21.60] It's the truth I'm trying
[02:22.66] To get inside the frame
[02:24.91] Now I'm painting myself naked
[02:30.77] But I need a pair of boots
[02:33.35] About as heavy as boots can be
[02:39.63] Or I'd be floating away, floating away
[02:51.88] I'd be floating away from me
[02:59.92] And every thorn sends thistledown
[03:05.89] Drifting all around
[03:11.45] And floating away, floating away
[03:23.37] Floating away from me
