Quicksand Songtext
von Scott Stapp

How could you keep walking on by?
Keep walking on by?
Hey friend, I′m talking to you
Mister, mister

How could you just turn your head and hide your eyes?
Hey friend, I'm talking to you
Sister, sister

Can′t you see, can't you see I'm in need?
I don′t want no sympathy
What happens when the tables turn on you?
Am I mistaken, where′s the heart inside of you?

I'm buried alive
Sinking in quicksand
Waiting for love to come and take my hand

It′s over my head
I'm sinking in quicksand
Love, come and take me to the promised land


Can you feel what I′m saying to you?
What I'm saying to you?
Are we this disconnected?
Brother, brother

Doesn′t everybody need the same thing in a world that's always suffering?
What makes you different from me?
Brother, sister

Can't you see, can′t you see I′m in need?
I don't want no sympathy
What happens when the tables turn on you?
Am I mistaken, where′s the heart inside of you?

I'm buried alive
Sinking in quicksand
Waiting for love to come and take my hand

It′s over my head
I'm sinking in quicksand
Love, come and take me to the promised land

I′m buried alive
Buried alive

I'm buried alive
Sinking in quicksand
Waiting for love to come and take my hand


It's over my head
I′m sinking in quicksand
Love, come and take me to the promised land
Love, come and take me to the promised land
