Quicksand - Morray

I like to say, I've made good use of my time while you've been away. And it's true, I've been in my piano everyday Thinking of you. They talk around, I hear them whisper, It's the funniest thing really they think you're gone forever I know the truth, It's just getting hard to believe it. When they all tell me it's over Even the stars are aligned and I, I follow the signs so clearly, And still I've fallen The quicksand's pulling me down. I follow the signs so clearly, And still they catch me The quicksand's pulling me down. I'm not the same, I can't sleep nights and now i'm calling your name when I do. And yet without you, they say I get along better, better, better. When they all tell me It's over I'll damn the gods until the stars are aligned and I, I follow the signs so clearly, And still I've fallen The quicksand's pulling me down. I follow the signs so clearly, And still they catch me The quicksand's pulling me down. Look at my life, look at my face, can't you see my heart bleeding down my sleeve, You're holding my hand and holding my heart but I just want to feel your breath inside me so I can breath. Somewhere in the distance I catch a spark of grace I hope it's something that makes me feel like I'm alive. It's never to soon, It's never to late, So I start screaming out I see your face I see your hand reaching down and I yell to you and I say, I follow the signs to clearly, And still I've fallen The quicksand's pulling me down. I follow the signs so clearly, And still they caught me The quicksand's pulling me down. I follow the signs so clearly, And still I've fallen The quicksand's pulling me down. I know you can feel me rising, I'm on fire If you keep on pulling me up. Look at my life, and look at my face, Look where I've come to get to this place with you. Being here to sit and lay at your feet and rest in your arms And listen to your heart beat. (Ohhh...)

Take me away, take me away You said that you were gonna stay But you're always lying anyway You're gonna suffer if you don't start breathing now Now that I need you, you're goin' away Everyday, sinking into quicksand Follow me down the drain But it doesn't matter anyway You're gonna get yours any day And while you put the blame on me If you could only see yourself as others see Now that I need you, you're goin' insane Everyday, sinking into quicksand Follow me down the drain Everyday, drinking in the same bar Drowning my sorrows away Take me away, take me today Or I'm never gonna get away But it makes no difference to me It's just the sound of one more rock star bleedin' out Now that I need you, you're out of the frame Day by day, sinking into quicksand Follow me down the drain Everyday, drinking in the same bar Made mine the same again

Into the quicksand Into this dark land We're running out of time At this rate we won't survive I reach out to you But you don't want me to I guess by now the truth As long as I'm in with you It feels like the two of us Just keep sinking I've had to hang on for dear life to save us dreaming Into the quicksand Into this dark land We're running out of time At this rate we won't survive I reach out to you But you don't want me to I guess by now the truth As long as I'm in with you It feels like the two of us Just keep sinking I've had to hang on for dear life to save us dreaming Into the quicksand Into this dark land We're running out of time At this rate we won't survive I reach out to you But you don't want me to I guess by now the truth As long as I'm in with you It feels like the two of us Just keep sinking I've had to hang on for dear life to save us dreaming It feels like the two of us Just keep sinking I've had to hang on for dear life to save us dreaming

You're stranded in the desert Ain't gonna be no rescue tonight My telephone is ringing But me and it are havin' a fight Don't wanna hear your misery Talkin' to me in my sleep Tellin' me your kisses are destiny When you act like a creep Stay on the other side In the universe of crazy lies There's a whole world waitin' down below And now you're sinkin' in, in my quicksand In my quicksand Don't send a messenger My lights are on but nobody's home You could smother it with money But really, you should leave me alone For all the days of romancin' me I am so over it All these definitions of ecstasy Is how my fuse got lit Stay on the other side In the universe of crazy lies There's a whole world waitin' down below And now you're sinkin' in, in my quicksand In my quicksand Mmmmmm... Mmmmmmm... Mmmmmm... Mmmmmmm... I can see you sinkin' down Wave goodbye you're going down Stay on the other side In the universe of crazy lies There's a whole world waitin' down below And now you're sinkin' in, in my quicksand In my quicksand In my quicksand Going down... Down, down, down Down mmmmm... I can see you sinkin' I can see you sinkin' down

It's about time, we need to feel better It's about time we made you feel worse It's about time we helped yourself out It's about time we came to Earth I can't seem to keep my mind off you I can't seem to settle down Can't seem to stop this movie Can't seem to find your town We are quicksand Slow love, false hands We are quicksand Just tryin' to break through Slide, slide I feel you near me now Cycles of attrition When will you know if we are doomed? When will you know that the floods will come? When will you know how we'll freeze up or run? When will you know if the song's been sung? We are quicksand Slow love, false hands We are quicksand Just tryin' to make it through We are soldiers No one told us We are soldiers We die for what we do The devil was dark I'm an isolator I figure some of them lie When I first taste her I'd rather be an alien I'd rather be outside I've been around the building I'll never let you slide, slide Slide, slide I feel you near me now Slide Cycles of attrition Slide I feel you near me now Slide Cycles of attrition We are quicksand Slow love, false hands
