Quicksand Songtext
von Brian Protheroe

Well, are you sitting reliving all the bad memories
As they tumble through your mind
About the things that were fun but you wish you hadn′t done
Now you're further down the line
Is there a hole in your bucket and a hole in your soul
And a hole in your broken heart

Do you feel something bad′s coming just around the corner
Since your life's been falling apart
Well, do you wish you had the golden ticket in your hand
But you know full well that you're standing in the quicksand
(Quicksand)


Are you dissatisfied with the life that you′re living
Has the boss been giving you hell
And you had bad news, you gotta give up the booze
′Cause it ain't been treating you well
Do you wake with a fright in the middle of the night
With the sweat running down your spine
′Cause your clock is ticking and the bells are tolling
And the years are rolling by
Did you think you were living in the promised land
But you know full well that you're standing in the quicksand

(Quicksand)

And it′s pulling you down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down in the quicksand
Pulling you down, down, down
Down, down, down

Down, down, down in the quicksand
Well, are you sitting reliving all the bad memories
As they tumble through your mind
About the things that were fun but you wish you hadn't done
Now you′re further down the line
Is there a hole in your bucket and a hole in your soul
And a hole in your broken heart
Do you feel something bad's coming just around the corner
Since your life's been falling apart
Well, do you wish you had the golden ticket in your hand

But you know damn well that you′re standing in the quicksand
(Quicksand)


And it′s pulling you down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down in the quicksand
Pulling you down, down, down

And you're going down, down, down to the bottom
Down, down, down in the quicksand

Pulling you down, down, down
And you′re going down, down, down to the bottom
Down, down, down in the quicksand
Pulling you down, down, down
And you're going down, down, down to the bottom
Down, down, down in the quicksand
