lyrics

You better watch your step and where you place your feet.
The ground should hold you up above but you’re sinking to your knees.
What you fail to see is hiding underneath.
All your misconceptions, all your insecurities.

Your resistance is counterproductive.
You’re only losing ground.
Agitate me a little at a time.
You will fight for your life.
And if I am a failure I’ll have not one worry.
Because I know you’ll be swept away with the tide.

Wave goodbye as you slowly slip away.
Your acuity is fading as your mind disobeys.

Your resistance is counterproductive.
You’re only losing ground.
Agitate me a little at a time.
You will fight for your life.
And if I am a failure I’ll have not one worry.
Because I know you’ll be swept away with the tide.

You’re never more alive when you’re face to face, in a tango with the darkness that tries to drown your light.
There’s no hope, your life revoked.

You better watch your step and where you place your feet.
The ground should hold you up above but you’re sinking to your knees.
What you fail to see is hiding underneath.
All your misconceptions, all your insecurities.

Your resistance is counterproductive.
You’re only losing ground.
Agitate me a little at a time.
You will fight for your life.
And if I am a failure I’ll have not one worry.
Because I know you’ll be swept away with the tide.

I am the quicksand. Feel my strength as I pull you down.
