Anonymous Life - Quicksand Lyrics

You can't seem to give it up
A world of lies
Covered in an ocean of deceit
With forests that know what hurts
Tell me now
Why do you call this land your home
Eternally trapped inside
An asylum
That locks away more than just your mind
You opened your heart in bluff
His false defense is a lie
That you just can't hear enough

I know that you don't understand
Those well told lies you just can't seem to see
I know that I'm not in your plans
And now I'm drowning in the sand

I remember when you lost hold
Truth be told
A summer night never felt so cold
I saw through your apathy
Cast away
You were living in your own fantasy
I offered my hand to you
Your escape
Was something that was long overdue
Happiness that you could have claimed
It was yours until
You turned and walked right back into the desert of shame

I know that you don't understand
Those well told lies you just can't seem to see
I know that I'm not in your plans
And now I'm drowning in the sand
I know that you won't understand
The less told truth you find hard to believe
Just know that you're not in my plans
And now you're drowning in the sand

I'm in the quicksand
And now the daylight's hard to see
You're in the quicksand
And now you're drowning here with me

Days away have felt too empty
All that's left
The perfect end to a perfect memory
Still nothing seemed to change
But I agree
Life alone has proved to be much too strange

I know that you don't understand
Those well told lies you just can't seem to see
I know that I'm not in your plans
And now I'm drowning in the sand
I know that you won't understand
The less told truth you find hard to believe
Just know that you're not in my plans
And now you're drowning in the sand
