Creeping amongst the lash of nights eye = 9
He ignores around it, making dry = 9
Pulling the lids back with both fists = 8
As he skids across our eyes mist = 8
He causes bursts of replay = 7
Credible to some, at day = 7
Yet fixated are we = 6
On the sand we can’t see = 6
Annoying to some = 5
We’ll pick till it comes = 5
Love at a glance = 4
Sandman’s romance = 4
Most review = 3
His walk through = 3
To find = 2
He’s blind = 2
Grain =1
Brained =1
