[drum fill intro]
[fast soul dance beat with closed hi-hats]
[fast floor stomping verse = female vocalist]
Baby, it’s gonna, swallow me
All this Quicksand
If I move too much, I’ll be drowning’ in
All this Quicksand
[fast floor stomping chorus = female chorus]
I’m try’na dry these tears, swarming me!
Before I go and get, all swallowed up,
By this Quicksand. (Oh, no!)
[verse = female vocals]
It happened by mistake, now I’m surrounded by
All this Quicksand
These emotions keep on, pulling me down
Just like Quicksand
[chorus = female vocals]
I’m try’na dry up, all these tears, that just keep on coming’ and swarming me!
Before I get, all swallowed up,
By this Quicksand. (Oh, no!)(Oh, no, no!)
[swift dance break]
[verse = female vocals]
It shouldn’t take this long, but every step I take is wrong, in
All this Quicksand
Hopelessness you see, has taken hold of me
Just like Quicksand
[chorus = female vocals]
Oh babe, need you to pull me out,
Until then I’ll scream and shout,
Please, please, please, don’t let me get swallowed up,
By this Quicksand.
By this Quicksand.
[outro]
Oh, oh, this Quicksand. Oh, no, no, this Quicksand. Oh, oh, no, this Quicksand…
No, no landslide no, no
No, no, no landslide no, no, no, no
[fading outro]
Oh, oh, this Quicksand. Oh, no, no, this Quicksand. Oh, oh, no, this Quicksand…
