Anna Akana
Quicksand
[Verse 1]
Mouthful of razor blades
I hear the things I say
But can't stop how sharp they come out any way
I'm built of bullets
You won't wear a vest
I know you think I wouldn't split straight through your chest
But got my fist full of throttle, my finger on the trigger
I take pills to get better, but only get sicker
You say you're tryna love
I only fuck it up
We're fucking miserable, but - I like it
I like it

[Chorus]
I'm sinking through quicksand
But my outstretched hand
Isn't reaching for help
I'll drag you down if I can
Sinking through quicksand
Quick, take my hand
I need company in hell
Quicksand
Quicksand

[Verse 2]
Handful of steel grenades
Dare you to walk away
One step, two step
Not afraid to die today
I'm made of missiles
You can't evade the hit
I know you think that I can stop and reverse this
But got my hair in a noose
My neck pressed up on a knife
Say you're losing your mind
And I'm ready to try
Pleading "Baby no more"
But don't reach for the door
Though we're at fucking war - you like it
You like it
[Chorus]
I'm sinking through quicksand
But my outstretched hand
Isn't reaching for help
I'll drag you down if I can
Sinking through quicksand
Quick, take my hand
I need company in hell
Quicksand
Quicksand

[Bridge]
I'm not damaged, I'm broken
So go ahead - rip me open
I'm not damaged, I'm broken
So go ahead - rip me open

[Chorus]
I'm sinking through quicksand
But my outstretched hand
Isn't reaching for help
I'll drag you down if I can
Sinking through quicksand
Quick, take my hand
I need company in hell
Quicksand
