Lyrics
Quicksand
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Slow sinking feeling kills the mood you're conveying
And it pulls me far down below it might be best if you go
Can it not wait and hope for the best
Will it not stop a while to rest
I need to get up i need to get out nevermind cause I've done enough
Cause the world waits around but I keep slipping and losing ground
Do I not try so hard so good
I can't keep changing just because you think I should
Said all I need to and you don't understand still
Wish you saw picture my minds eyes are deep and they're cynical
One taken four more kills the pain healing that sores
I've taken what's left I took it all
And now you won't let me forget
Now that the world waits around but I keep slipping and losing ground
Do I not try so hard so good
I can't keep changing just because you think I should
Stop you're talking down
I lack the strength to sit or stand
I lost my self confidence
In the quicksand (4x)
Not now or ever
Sink slowly my treasure (3x)
Not now (4x)
Cause the world waits around but I keep slipping and losing ground
Do I not try so hard so good
I can't keep changing just because you think I should
