Does anybody knows that lovely song's lyrics?

After hours and hours of an exhaustive research, I arrived to the conclusion that Like a Swimmer's lyrics are not in the Internet... :(

She
Homegrown (?)
In
The thick of it
Another reconnaƮt (?)
Thirteen

You're here (Your hair?)
Unmoved
Beautiful
Phone (Full?)

Your face
Your dust
Your salt
Comes in with me
Your eyes
Your grin
Just you
I'm shaken with you
No one (why?)
Something with (?) you
Cut
Induced dark (?)
How low you slide
You
In the sun
Regardless
You stroke
The neck
My bubble bubble fizz
You

You
Your words
You're clean
In the sun
You
Your face
You move
Above me
You

Your face
Your dust
Your salt
Comes in with me
Your eyes
Your grin
Just you
I'm shaken with you
No one (why?)
Something with (?) you
Cut
Induced dark (?)
How low you slide
You
In the sun
Regardless
You stroke
The neck
My bubble bubble fizz
You

Here is Like a Swimmer video, which shows papers with pieces of the lyrics. It's not the original, as you can see when it ends.

So...

She
Homegrown (?)
In
The thick of it
Another reconnaƮt (?)
Thirteen

You're here (Your hair?)
Unmoved
Beautiful
Phone (Full?)

Your face
Your dust
Your salt
Comes in with me
Your eyes
Your grin
Just you
I'm shaken with you
No one (why?)
Something with (?) you
Cut
Induced dark (?)
How low you slide
You
In the sun
Regardless
You stroke
The neck
My bottle bubble fizz
You

You
Your words
You're clean
In the sun
You
Your face
You move
Above me
You

Your face
Your dust
Your salt
Comes in with me
Your eyes
Your grin
Just you
I'm shaken with you
No one (why?)
Something with (?) you
Cut

How low you slide
You
In the sun
Regardless
You stroke
The neck

yeah, that video was made by someone on here, so don't go thinking it's all official or whatever.

The video was made by King Of Snake. I think its great. He's also done a video for one New Order song, Primitive Notion which is so good I thought it should have got an official release...

i always thought it was:

She won't go in the thick of it

another work on the a-13

(this seemed solidified since Karl always talked about the art works on the a-13)

Hey Stims! I was too lazy to start a new post and just had to get that thought of winjer off me chest.

Like a Swimmer i got pretty every word wrong after reading here.

This song works best for me when the lyrics are tones. Given the heavy distortion that renders a lot of the lyrics indecipherable, why bother trying to interpret? Karl's voice is mostly another instrument, not necessarily a literal lyricist, anyway.
