Quicksand

(album: Dog Eat Dog - 1992)

Gonna write a letter to my baby
and this is what im gonna say
on second thought i think i'll the time
to say it to her face

i can't eat i can't sleep
i feel like i'm going down for the last time
i'm sinking in your sea
of insecurity

and do i love you-yes i do
but i love my own life too

as i lay here holding your hand
i can't help but feel you don't understand
the tighter you hold on
the more that it's feeling like quicksand

our fate is written in the stars
it's written on your face
now your holding too tight to my heart
it's gonna burst and leave an empty space

and do i love you yes i do
but i love my own life too

as i lay here holding your hand
i can't help but feel you don't understand
the tighter you hold on
the more that it's feeling like quicksand

[repeat pre-chorus and chorus]
