Swim Lyrics

Lyric discussion by the deadest rose 

Cover art for Swim lyrics by Bush

My buddy has a theory that this song is about "starfuckers", or obsessive groupies for the most part... He says its about the love of the art and the path that has been chosen, but fans smother the life out of him... Like his fame is a whore, meaning both a disease infested curse of a lifestyle, and also a "quick fix" to most of his problems...

It's a double edged sword.
