about

'Mirage' was written in 2015, but I haven't played it that much, until now, and I don't think it's on the drummis site anywhere yet. Here is the latest rendition.

lyrics

The desert sands are hot
Even the burro’s thirsty
I think of what is not
A need that must come firstly

On the horizon a beautiful sight
Palm trees and yuccas too
Water for my tongue to excite

Too bad this mirage is as fake as you

Water, water everywhere
But not a drop to drink
This blasted sand gets in my hair
It makes me hard to think

Moving on I think I see
A flying ship or two
Is this another trick of the light?

Too bad this mirage is as fake as you

Illusions come and illusions go
As we pass through the day
We put on fronts in order to hide
We face the other way

The water runs the water flows
Under consciousness’s view
But now I see it, revealed by the light

Too bad this mirage is as fake as --
Too bad that mirage is as fake as --
Too bad our mirage is as fake as you
