8mm - Quicksand lyrics

This is a bad, bad movie

It's gone on too long the ending's all wrong

And oh, there's no hope

I stir my coffee; you try to smile

I hear the clink of glass in the sink

And I just look down and take a drink

We know we're standing in quicksand

We know it's faster if we fight it so

We lay down and hold hands

Oh, we know we're standing in quicksand

We know it's faster if we fight,

But let go and slip away

The bed looks just like the moon

Cold and pale and just as far away

We let the focus drift and watched the colors fade

You pull the covers back and look at me

Just like you waiting for something, something

That's never coming back

We know we're standing in quicksand

We know it's faster if we fight it so

We lay down and hold hands

Oh, we know we're standing in quicksand

We know it's faster if we fight,

But let go and slip away

Oh we know we're standing in quicksand

And it might be funny, charming, something, something

If it was somebody else

It's a bad dream

It's a bad dream

And one of us should scream

One of us should scream

One of us should scream

Baby, scream

Baby, scream
