Slow sinking feeling   Kills the mood you're conveying   And it pulls me far down below   It might be best if you go      Can it not wait and hope for the best   Will it not stop a while to rest   I need to get and I need to get up   Never mind 'cause I've, I've done enough      'Cause the world waits around   But I keep slipping and losing ground   Do I not try so hard, so good   I can't keep changing just because you think I should      Said, all I need to   And you don't understand still   Wish you saw, picture my mind's   Eyes are deep and they're cynical      One taken four more   Kills the pain, healing that sore   I've, I've taken what's left, I took it all   And now you won't let me forget, forget, forget      Now that the world waits around   But I keep slipping and losing ground   Do I not try so hard, so good   I can't keep changing just because you think I should      Stop, you're talking down   I lack the strength to sit or stand   I lost my self confidence in the quicksand   In the quicksand   In the quicksand   In the quicksand      Not now or ever   Sink slowly my treasure   Not now or ever   Sink slowly my treasure      Not now or ever   Sink slowly my treasure   Not now, not now, not now, not now      'Cause the world waits around   But I keep slipping and losing ground   Do I not try so hard, so good   I can't keep changing just because you think I should
