Man of Sand
I am I am I am
A man of sand
Deceived , defeated by conceit
I make my own bad luck
Like the marks on my torn shirt
I stand tall but stay stuck
On land while the sea
Is calling taunting me
I am I am I am
A man of sand
Deceived , defeated by conceit
I seek ships and their charms
But she holds me with bare arms
Like a lover whose care harms
The shore and me
Being taunted by the sea
You gave me moonlight
I watched the waves shine
And dreamed its tide would soon be mine
You gave me moonlight
I watched the waves shine
And dreamed its tide would soon be mine
I am I am I am
A man of sand
Deceived , defeated by conceit
The pulse of my weak heart
Beats between my stop/starts
Preparing to embark
Something holds me
Still taunted by the sea
I am I am I am
A man of sand
Deceived , defeated by conceit

Lay low for awhile
Try to find peace try to unwind
Become someone new
Believe in something true
A head-rush of bad stuff
A crooked mile
Lay low for awhile
Lay low for awhile
Escape the in and the outside
And rest your head down
Where there’s no time where there’s no sound
A head-rush of bad stuff
A crooked mile
Lay low for awhile
Close your eyes for awhile
And stop your tired trying
To become someone new
To believe in something true
A head-rush of bad stuff
A crooked mile
Lay low for awhile
Lay low for awhile

Cormac O Caoimh Cork, Ireland
What do…
A honeyed whiskey drink,
A fine cognac on a cold winter’s eve
A warm woolly
jumper in muted earthy colours
A colour .. a rich mahogany warm and beautiful
and a water color painting all have in common???

"Beautiful beyond words" - Mutant Space
"There is true magic here" - Folk Words
