Desert kisses in the sand

engulfing joints, engulfing land

Tidal fingers cling to rocks

a deadly grip, a deadly lock



cursed and pissed into the ocean

wilfully caused a great commotion

but only for a stifled moment

then it was back to still life motion



A sideways crawl, a sideways scrawl

the cancer crab is on us all

I kissed your face, I kissed the sand

I heard you sigh

there was no sound



thrashed and spat back at the ocean

but there was nothing, no commotion

just my lonely stupid notions

trapped again in still life motion



Sinking down-with just my sound

Sinking down-running on the moving ground Sinking down

Sinking down-without a sound

Sinking down-sleeping on the moving ground Sinking down



Desert kisses in the sand

engulfing joints, engulfing land

Tidal fingers cling to rocks

a deadly grip, a deadly lock



Sinking down-the world is round

Sinking down-there's no-one around

Standing on the moving ground

Sinking down-the world is flat

there's no-one here to question that

Sinking down-without a sound

Sinking down

Sinking down-the world was round

Sinking down-there was no-one around

Sinking down.
