Quicksand of You

[Verse 1] You were soft as summer rain I stepped in just to feel a little Thought I'd leave the way I came Now I'm sinking past the middle Every word you ever said Clings to me like heavy water Tried to laugh it off instead But the more I move The farther [Chorus] I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Every struggle pulls me deeper through Should let go But I hold your hand Going under in your shifting sand I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Breathing slow But I'm losing view I reach up and you just slip through I'm stuck in the quicksand of you [Verse 2] Friends all shouting from the bank "Turn around Just crawl out Leave it" But you smile and I go blank Sink again before I see it Tiny hopes like floating reeds Brush my fingers Never catch them You keep feeding all my needs Just enough so I won't question [Chorus] I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Every struggle pulls me deeper through Should let go But I hold your hand Going under in your shifting sand I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Breathing slow But I'm losing view I reach up and you just slip through I'm stuck in the quicksand of you [Bridge] If I stay still Will the ground get kinder If I let you go Will I climb out lighter You say "trust me" As I fade from sight Love shouldn't cost This kind of fight [Chorus] I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Every struggle pulls me deeper through Should let go But I hold your hand Going under in your shifting sand I'm stuck in the quicksand of you Breathing slow But I'm losing view I reach up and you just slip through Still stuck in the quicksand of you
