h1ff, i like your interpretation. and I agree, it is most definitely about a relationship that is drowning them both, eventhough they still both want to hold on and keep trying to make it to shore. I think though that it's also about their ignorance to the things that are dragging them down, bc all they can think about is eachother, even when the water is above his ankles he doesn't do anything, and when he can taste the water bc it's risen to his mouth, he still just wants to be with her. beautifully tragic.
