Quicksand

Time is slipping by - time is running out

Time is all that you have

Have you forgotten how to laugh?

The lady said, "You're far too serious

for such a young man"

Oh, but what did she know

She was just a cashier

Handing out change

Nobody wants to hear

You've got everything to lose

Got everything to gain

Don't you have enough sense to come

in out of the rain?

Tell me, what are your alternatives?

There is no compromise

I know that it's hard to free yourself

From the quicksand of your lies

Love is slipping by - love is running out

Love is all that you have

Have you forgotten how to laugh?

The lady said, "It's just a good thing that

you've got the money"

Oh, but what did she know

She was just a stranger

Handing out advice

Standing clear of the danger

You've got everything to lose

Got everything to gain

Don't you have enough sense to come

in out of the rain?

Tell me, what are your alternatives?

There is no compromise

I know that it's hard to free yourself

From the quicksand of your lies
