about

Scholars say we really don't know Søren's last words, but he also might have said a couple things as relevant today as they were in early 1800s: "Once you label me you negate me" and, "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use". As always, "Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards". Enjoy the track!

lyrics

Sweep Me Up

Søren Kierkegaard, Danish philosopher, man of God... His last words were …

Sweep me up

I’m getting tired
Sometimes it’s sad
There is a wire
I’ve got to grab
It’ll tug me through my troubles
It’ll get me past
That crack that’s always smiling … in the broken sky
Sweep me up and let me loose I’ll fly!

Sweep me up
A cloud of sea birds
swims in the sky
A flock of surfers
Flies on the tide
I float in flowing motion
It’s quite a ride
The wind is thick as water. The water’s smooth as wind
Sweep me up let me begin.. Again-

Sweep me up!
Sweep me up on high!
Sweep me up in the breast of the sky when I die
And I’ll fly in the soul of the wind.
When I see how the birds surf the waves in the air
My guess is heaven is this-
That crack is always smiling in the broken sky
Sweep me up and let me loose I’ll fly.
Sweep me up
