Quicksand

(album: Dark Sun - 2022)

I've been wading through the quicksand
Trying to find a way to pretend
All my demons know where I stand
I've been sinking down and I know
The more I move, the lower I go
I've been wading through the quicksand

Take if you want to take
That's your only way to live
The brink of a miracle
But something's gotta give
A decade I fought for you
Now I'm fighting to forget your name
Our love wasn't typical
But nothing's gonna change

Tables turn but let them burn 'cause
I don't mind when I look at you and realize

I've been wading through the quicksand
Trying to find a way to pretend
All my demons know where I stand
I've been sinking down and I know
The more I move, the lower I go
I've been wading through the quicksand

Quit if you want to quit
You don't have to say a word
I know you won't fail to hesitate
When you kick me to the curb

Tables turn but let them burn 'cause
I don't mind when I look at you and realize

I didn't get what I wanted
Now everything is just haunted
Recall the world was so quiet
Now everything is just violent

'Cause I've been wading through the quicksand
Trying to find a way to pretend
All my demons know where I stand
I've been sinking down and I know
The more I move, the lower I go
I've been wading through the quicksand
I've been wading through the quicksand

I've been sinking down and I know
The more I move, the lower I go
I've been wading through the quicksand
