Quicksand Songtext
von Flora

I slammed the breaks before we made it past your driveway
Grabbed my keys and ran home
Great Escape
Skipped town without notice
I watched it all go up in flames
Then felt the weight lift off my shoulders

And ooh
That′s when I knew

Caught up in the moment
Tracing steps I didn't take and looked ′round every corner
Prison Break
Never thought I'd do it
Unaware until you felt the wind call out my name

And ooh
Next thing you knew

Cold feet, sixth sense, high stakes, big plans
Deep down I always knew you're quicksand


I gave it all, I gave enough
Until I had nothing but dust
And ooh, I-I think of every time you crossed the line
My gut kept screaming it ain′t right
Deep down I always knew you′re quicksand

Chased down to the border
Taking shots until they graze
As every word we left unspoken ricocheted
I never thought you'd do it
But, God, I was so foolish to think you′d let me walk unscathed

And ooh
Next thing you knew

Cold feet, sixth sense, high stakes, big plans
Deep down I always knew you're quicksand

I gave it all, I gave enough
Until I had nothing but dust
And ooh, I-I think of every time you crossed the line
My gut kept screaming it ain′t right
Deep down I always knew you're quicksand

Had me for a moment
Made me question every motive
Almost let you screw me over
When deep down I′ve always known it
You're quicksand


(Quicksand, quicksand, quicksand)

Well, you had me for a moment
Made me question every motive (your motives)
Almost let you screw me over
When deep down I've always known it

I gave it all, I gave enough
Until I had nothing but dust
And ooh, I-I think of every time you crossed the line
My gut kept screaming it ain′t right
Deep down I always knew you′re quicksand

Had me for a moment
Made me question every motive (every motive)
Almost let you screw me over (ooh, it ain't right)
When deep down I′ve always known it
You're quicksand
