BACK AT BORSTAL BEACH

I dreamt I was back at Borstal...
The beach was strangely warm.

The men were all of them deadly...
Their danger gave them form.

They flashed on my face
as I slept
you see...

They haunted me
there
where I lay...

With Gattaca themes;
swimming through dreams...
none of us quite gets away.

They died all alone
after leaving the beach
but they live when I lust
(close my eyes)

They frolic
and play...

They smile
and say they're grateful;
inspire my sighs.
