"To the Rim" by Phil Hogg (Cover Song)
Misty mountain on the horizon
The sea is so smooth as we go out on it
To the light
Leaving the world as we know it
Feeling like I'm heading to the rim
Perfect timing in the silver light
Brazen glory resounding like an evening hymn
You can see the curve of the earth
Feel the edges of heaven
As you make your way across to the rim
Suspended, upended
Moving, yet motionless
Suddenly, you cross the line between knowing and unknowing
The sea becomes the land, the land becomes the sea
And all the dreaming focuses on a glistening little harbor
Opening its arms to let you in
Heading out to the rim
On a silver sea
On a silver sea

![Slow Coast Heartbeat (Bowen Island)
Yeah
Horseshoe Bay behind us, ferry cuttin’ through the black water
Bowen Island nights…
West coast drizzle on the windshield…
[Verse 1]
Last boat in at Snug Cove dock
Kids still posted by the Union Steamship clock
Tourists all gone, now the island exhale
Fog roll slow past the Queen of Capilano trail
Coffee gone cold from Tell Your Friends
Old dudes still arguin’ where the good years went
One truck parked crooked by the General Store
Mud on the tires from the Mount Gardner road
Bonfire sparks down by Pebbly Beach
Cheap Bluetooth speaker barely stayin’ in reach
Somebody rappin’ over old G-funk drums
While the tide crash low and the cold wind hum
Seen rich Vancouver folks buy cedar retreats
Then panic first winter when the power cuts deep
Meanwhile island lifers laugh and grin
Light candles up and keep everything dim
Road bend dark by Grafton Lake
One wrong move and your axle break
Everybody know your truck and face
So there ain’t nowhere on Bowen to disappear for days
[Chorus]
Ferry lights glow in the Snug Cove mist
Bassline knock through the cedar drift
We don’t move fast, just lean and slide
Slow coast heartbeat with the dark-tide ride
From Artisan Eats to the pub out late
Everybody here got history and weight
From the marina wood to the shoreline blues
Island soul in rain-soaked boots
[Verse 2]
Killarney Lake trail all wet with rain
Tacoma headlights through the evergreen maze
Crab traps stacked by the government dock
Somebody tunin’ up a skiff round the clock
Bowen Pub jukebox stuck in the past
Tom Petty, Too $hort, then some old Clash tracks
One dude swear he finally movin’ away
Still sayin’ that same thing every May
Deep Bay water black as oil
Moonlight caught in the driftwood coils
And the ferry horn echo out through Howe Sound
Like the whole damn coast got a tired old growl
Cops barely seen, but the gossip move quick
By noon everybody know whose boat got hit
That’s Bowen life, rugged but warm
Rain on the cedar through another storm
[Chorus]
Ferry lights glow in the Snug Cove mist
Bassline knock through the cedar drift
We don’t move fast, just lean and slide
Slow coast heartbeat with the dark-tide ride
[Outro]
Yeah
Streetlight flicker outside Doc Morgan’s
Rain tap rhythm on the marina rails
And the sub still knock…
