A Sleeve of Sand

Music: Marcelo Barrantes Lyrics: Marcelo Barrantes I walk with the serpents I've made of the desert my home A soldier of fortune I gamble with only my soul At night I beg I pray For the blood of my enemies May I never find them A man with no mission But kissing the lips of revenge
Every day is the same Every night I'm awake My heart full of regrets My gun with one bullet left A man who's wanted by all I cry to God on the run and I pray Please let me die like a man
My rusty old earrings remind Me of when I had a home Stolen from my mother's drawer The day that we shared our last hug Mama I love you I won't be long Oh they look great on you, she said Many moons have gone since And I know I won't see her again No
Every day is the same Every night I'm awake My heart full of regrets My gun with one bullet left A man who's wanted by all I cry to God on the run and I pray Please let me die like a man
Like a man
The sailing of the sun guides me through Dry blood in my pocket reminding me Of places that I'll never see Of lovers that I'll never miss
Every day is the same Every night I'm awake My heart full of regrets My gun with one bullet left A man who's wanted by all I cry to God on the run and I pray Please let me die like a man
Like a man
