"QUICKSAND" BY SLEEPING AT LAST (Standard tuning) There are wires in between Human heart and machine. I will wait for mountains To tell me youre okay On paper my future will lay. Ill fold every failure into a crane. Trust is quicksand, Claiming everything I have, All to give me life, all to give me life. Slow down, hide your eyes! The sun is setting fire Through glass, branches deep. I cough only to breathe. x8 measures Trust is quicksand, Claiming everything I have, All to give me life, all to give me life. One thousand more to go, Ill send every prayer from below. I was swallowed by a whale. Slow down, youre all words And love is made of yarn. Scissors, A slip of the hand, a slip of the tongue; God knows I meant no harm, I meant no harm. , , , , , In between every promise and lie there is a kiss. , In between tempers and suitcases there is a kiss. , In between medicine and the sick there is a kiss. , In between arrows, aim, and release, there is a kiss.
