Hey Music Lovers! A quick intro into me: I'm Randy from Greensboro, NC. I am the lead singer and guitarist of the band Mightier Than Me, and I also run a YouTube channel called Eye Write Daily, dedicated to all things songwriting. Check it out and subscribe (and find me on Steemit)! You'll get fresh new original music like this:

This is a song about denial and the Salton Sea. It's called "Niland".

LYRICS

No one ever questions things around here
‘cause everything’s fine
Yeah, even though the ground is ground up fish bones
all you hear is everything’s fine
I wanna be fine

Take a little road trip, in between the ears
makes everything fine
‘cause even though the wind only brings bad news
I’m in the clear, I’m gonna be fine

[chorus]
I’m in Niland, suddenly
I’m in Niland, secretly
I’m an island, in the sea
On an island is exactly where I wanted to be

The bitterness of Winter
The sky’s as dry as bone
But this is my home

And even though I talk myself to sleep
I’m alone
Don’t say I’m alone
(Cause I got Niland)

[chorus]

There’s something about the way the stars at night shine
It’s almost as if they know I’m fine
That I won’t be the reason if the sky does fall
it’s not my fault

[chorus]
