Print Version


I sit in a darkness more deep than my cave

And curse the bold hero who gave me my grave

For no one will fear when they see this blind fool

To leave me alive was a torment most cruel



Chorus: I once was a Giant, but now I'm a craven

My dirge is the song of white sheep and black raven

I curse the brave man who would not stand and fight

But who gave me to death when he put out my sight



He sharpened my stick while I slept unafraid

Then burned it red-hot in the fire I had made

He stabbed it down into my eyelid so deep

He robbed me of sight as he robbed me of sleep



My sheep when to pasture and never returned

The coals are so cold where my bonfire once burned

I hear the birds call as the night gathers near

And folds me in silence as deep as my fear



I sit in the cold and the night of the blind

And curse that foul captain and all man-unkind

I pray he will wander as I never can

And wish for the sight of his own kin and clan



The sheep on the hillsides call lost in the night

They cannot be gathered by one without sight

The ravens are waiting on branches nearby

To pluck at my bones when I lay down and die







Words and music:Kathy Mar

  • Bamboo Wind
    "I am in a vast black sea, the spaces reach in front of me
    As far as I could ever see, as far again behind.
    And each new world I land upon, with seas and hills and storm and
    dawn,..."
  • Barbie Cues
    "Somebody's barbie is a vaporous cloud
    One of the barbies of a very freaky crowd
    Someone's prize hibachi will never cook again
    It's impossible to charbroil on a small metallic stain..."
  • Basilisk
    "She searched for a Basilisk all through the seasons
    She hunted him down but for all the wrong reasons
    She'd thought up a plan that she felt was quite clever
    A way her great beauty could live on forever..."
  • Behold
    "As in the tribal ritual passed down from ancient days
    Take all your newborn children out beyond the city blaze
    And raise your children overhead to sable skies above
    The sable field of distant space, afire with every star..."
  • Between Grass Shores
    "Tides of mountains crash on the shores of grain
    And in this city of ash I tremble in my private pain
    Will the winds of time blow my heart to me
    Or will I wander forever between grass shores and mountain sea..."
  • Bhigg House
    "These are the steps that Ruth built
    Loving kindness in each nail
    Planks that never trip the feet
    Lead you from the shady street..."
  • Box
    "I am in a box.
    I am locked inside.
    Someone owns the locks.
    Nowhere left to hide...."
  • Boy Genius
    "Boy genius with the big sad eyes
    All of the mamas want to take you home
    Get what you can, do what you must, be what you have to be
    And take that weary highway out alone...."
