Quicksand

(Intro) They say love builds from words, But ours was born from silence. Still, silence can split hearts – And that’s where we died. (Verse 1) I close my eyes and you're still there, In that place where the day quietly ends. You never said much – you didn’t have to. You turned dull grey mornings into bursts of color. You made a stranger feel like a lover, And I never felt like “the gay one” with you. (Chorus) Hold me one last time, just one more breath, Tie the blindfold, put on the sheath. Let the quicksand pull us down (pull us down) Let the quicksand take us now (take us down) (Verse 2) We lay naked in silence, skin on skin, A little shy, but deeply happy within. Your arms – the safest place I’ve ever known. No map needed when you were my home. You held my hand above the river, The world watched, but we had each other. You looked so beautiful, I fell for you again. And again. And again. (Chorus) Hold me one last time, just one more breath, Tie the blindfold, put on the sheath. Let the quicksand pull us down (pull us down) Let the quicksand take us now (take us down) (Verse 3) I thought I’d grow old by your side. Now someone else smells like your cologne at night. No, you won’t reach down as I fall. We were too perfect to survive it all. I cried and you were the only one Who knew how to look at my tears without running. I wish everyone could feel a love like this – Ours was chaos, magic, pain, and bliss. (Outro) Let the quicksand take us… Let the quicksand take me.
