quicksand

Lyrics

hopeful, a design we forget, lost in translation of yesterday, sunk in worrisome sand, futures slip away, and we forget, we focus on the present we overlook the loved, meaningless beautiful days banked away, sifting through the rot of carrion memories, we let these granules sway our lives, worthless burdens embellished, buried alive, we implode, piece yourself back together, just a fractured face in ancient stone, worn away by a desolate wind, we focused on the present, we overlooked the loved, distancing myself from within, i feel it, we separate and spin, i can see myself unravel, we get lost in the flutter, my feet sink back in sand, climb and climb exhausted it doesn't matter, release my body into the expanse, into the fray, i can feel it, it pulls at me, i can feel it, it's gripping me, not ready now i won't give in, this life won't end, sunk in this meaningless sand
