about

Letting go of old things and embracing change. Diving into the ocean of possibility despite any fear (of waves). When discussing my fear of waves with a friend, he recommended i try swimming right down to the bottom, as if to clutch the sand, to avoid getting dumped. I tried this and it worked, leaving me feeling much more confident in the water! Then my mind thought of it as a metaphor for life and i cam up with this song.

lyrics

I’ve got my boots
I’ve got my hat
I’ve got my clothes on but
I’ve lost my mind, and I cant find it
Yeah I’ve lost my mind.

Swimming around in the ocean
With my clothes on
But its dragging me down – the steel caps
And I feel a little burnt
Coz my hat floated away
When I got all lost in the whitewash

Then my boots came off
And my clothes came off
And I dropped beneath the wave
And I clutched the sand
Where I was safe

I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found, a break in the wave
I found a break in the wave

[Inst]

Then I found my boots
And I found my hat
And I put my clothes on
And walked the dry land.

Yeeaahhh ☺

In a recent review of their single 'Cold River', Anthony Gebhardt (Blank GC) drew parallels to the vibe of the Waifs and concluded "one is left bathing in a warm glow as the sun sets and the cold river washes over and invigorates ones musical soul”. ... more
