Quicksand

Lights all around
And I can feel where the air meets the ground
I pull back my hair
And try to feel, try to feel what isn't there

Tell me that where my feet hit the ground I can stand
And tell me that I'm not walking on quicksand

I slip on these shoes
And try to walk like they're not loose
And when I've had enough
I try to grab ahold of the air that's not there

Tell me that where my feet hit the ground I can stand
And tell me that I'm not walking on quicksand

Who am I living for,
when the depths of my soul scream for more?
And I can't fool my heart
to be something it's not



Tell me that where my feet hit the ground I can stand
And tell me 
That I'm not walking on quicksand
