Quicksand Songtext
von Communicant

I′m on the losing side of knowing where to go
My baby's sped off with that desert scorpio
So I shot him dead and I ran down for Mexico
I′m speeding through the sand a million miles to go
I hear the sirens down that police stereo
So I ran a moonbeam down to a river I lay low

All the sweat pours down my head
Lying in the river bed
I saw the bullets blood rush down my shoulder unprepared
Started back in 86 putting up my crucifix
Who dares?
I'm running scared


I miss the taste of what it feels like to be saved
I'm crying up here though I′ll be laughing in my grave
And if I see the devil I′ll tell it to his face

I can't find another way
All my options fade to grey
I′m losing all the feeling in the front of my right arm
I was meant for better things
Get me out this revery
Who cares
I'm running scared


It′s been a few weeks now
I've made my great escape
Now I′m stuck here in the desert shriveling day by day
So I leave this document in case I can't be saved
Saved
In case I can't be saved
In case I can′t be saved
In case I can′t be
