Quicksand

[Verse 1]
Don't hold the blame
I was down before you, down before you came
Each little wave that followed
Swallowed the one before

Lay down your blade
I was gone before you, gone before you came
You're just the latest to wash up on on shore
And beach at my feet

[Chorus]
Is there a rock high enough to climb above the tides that come?
The tides that come?
I'm calling it, I'm calling it
I pull you free of this quicksand

[Verse 2]
Gulls up on the gutter
Shouting at us, shouting at each other
Remind me winter is come
And one stiff wind will blow off this thin love

God what a waste of a worthy promise
One we nearly made
Long as we're pretending
Let's pretend it ended well

[Chorus]
Is there a rock high enough to climb above the tides that come?
The tides that come
I'm calling it and I'm calling it
I pull you free of this quicksand

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Is there a rock high enough to climb above the tides that come?
The tides that come
I'm calling it, I'm calling it
I pull you free of this quicksand

Is there a rock high enough to climb above the tides that come?
The tides that come, the tides that come
I'm calling it, I'm calling it
I pull you free of this quicksand
