World of Sand

Liner Notes
I got the lyric "world of sand" (from my previous track) stuck in my head and decided to expand that / take it in a different direction

Lyrics
Here at World of Sand
We have everything pertaining
To your sand needs
We love you more
Than those other sand stores
That you used to shop at
We offer the finest grit sandpaper there is
And we also have the rougher stuff
If that’s what you’re into
You can always buy more time
By filling your hourglass
Or transcend it
with one of our meditation sandboxes
Don’t fall for other sand superstores
Who knowingly mix theirs with impurities
Like crab shells and concrete dust
We’re going to be what’s best for us
We won’t be jealous while you’re out playing golf
Especially if you fall into one of our premium sand traps
And we don’t illegally harvest it from the beach
Or national parks
World of Sand
Let our world…be your world!
***
At World of Sand, we believe in something
We believe everything is sand, and sand is everything
Use a magnifying glass or a microscope
What do you see?
Fossils, glass, rocks, minerals
The stuff of earth, of life
Battered by the elements into smaller parts
But still recognizable
From ash to ash
From dust to dust

Lush.
The spoken word bit is sorta, I dunno, a bit creepy.
Excellently done, though, perfect.
Super great last "verse".
This whole thing is kinda trippy.
