Swimming in Quicksand --- Tamicus

[Verse 1] He walks with haunted footsteps like some winter ghoul She said she couldn't love him even if she wanted to But he swears he didn't know what he was doin' When he made her cry. And she made mistakes, too, and she said, “But I didn't mean to lose you” [Chorus] Those mistakes were stones on her heart He was hostile and hateful She was cold and dark, swimming in shallows Don't know why they kept thinkin’ drowning was smart 'Cause they were swimmin' in quicksand She could barely even feel his hand They don't know why they didn’t just stop Didn’t just let go When they were swimmin' in quicksand Oh Oh Oh [Verse 2] He was too far gone for her to hold He could no longer hide from himself As she lived in silence with a raging heart Blame has no resolution They both played a part [Chorus] Those mistakes were stones on her heart He was hostile and hateful She was cold and dark, swimming in shallows Don't know why they kept thinkin’ drowning was smart 'Cause they were swimmin' in quicksand She could barely even feel his hand They don't know why they didn’t just stop Didn’t just let go When they were swimmin' in quicksand Oh Oh Oh [Bridge] He told her he had to go She panicked in the moment Tried to remind him of them at the start And her heart began to shatter. But he just laughed and said, “In the end, the beginning doesn’t matter” [Chorus] Those mistakes were stones on her heart He was hostile and hateful She was cold and dark, swimming in shallows Don't know why they kept thinkin’ drowning was smart 'Cause they were swimmin' in quicksand She could barely even feel his hand They don't know why they didn’t just stop Didn’t just let go When they were swimmin' in quicksand Oh Oh Oh Don't know why they kept thinkin’ drowning was smart 'Cause they were swimmin' in quicksand Oh Oh Oh
