Quicksand lyrics

[Verse 1]

Define her abyss

Show it respect

Then a celestial nest

Will grow above

[Pre-Chorus 1]

When I'm broken, I am whole

And when I'm whole, I'm broken

[Chorus]

Our mother's philosophy

It feels like quicksand

And if she sinks

I'm going down with her

[Verse 2]

Locate her black lake

The steam from this pit

Will form a cloud

For her to live on

[Pre-Chorus 2]

When she's broken, she is whole

And when she's whole, she's broken

[Chorus]

Our mother's philosophy

It feels like quicksand

And if she sinks

I'm going down with her

[Verse 3]

Hackle this darkness

Up to the light

Where choreographed oxygen

Embroiders the air

[Pre-Chorus 3]

When we're broken we are whole

And when we're whole we're broken

[Outro]

We are the siblings of the sun

Let's step into this beam

Every time you give up

You take away our future

And my continuity and my daughter's

And her daughters

And her daughters
