Liner Notes
When a lyricist like @cindyrella suggests a song for you to put music to, you need to take that suggestion seriously and this lyric is a rocker from way back. Vocals and guitar are all one take. Love it :)
Lyrics
Quicksand
© 2024 Cindy Prince
Music: C. Stewart
I didn't look
Until it was too late
I didn't reflect on
What was to be my fate
I didn't realize
The depth of your deceit
Didn't know I was sinking
Until it was over my feet
Chorus
It was like quicksand
I was totally trapped
I was stuck in the muck
All my strength was zapped
So hard to understand
Going down, going down into quicksand
I didn't think
About the dark side of you
I couldn't imagine
The depths you would go to
I didn't walk away
Now I find myself in this mess
Yet I know in my heart
I couldn't love you any less
Chorus
Bridge
Were there signs I refused to see?
How could you do this to me?
Chorus
Outro
It's getting hard to breathe
