Always Remember to Swim
Verse 1
Crash and burn for eternity
But if you never jump, you never see
That up and down are part of life
The lows make the highs feel so right
Pre-chorus
The highs make the lows a long, smooth ride
So surf through the rush and the rising tide
When the tide draws on out, you can pause and rest
Yeah, that’s when the shell searching’s best
Chorus
Always remember to swim

About
Kairos Fray is a music and spoken-word project built from an archive of voice recordings that has been growing since 2009: hundreds of them, most improvised in the car or on the trail. The songs are built around them.
They hold humor, grief, defiance, tenderness and wonder, often within the same piece.
