You feed me your lies like candy
Sweet at first and so promising
I find the poison in the centre
Rotting my mind, but you know better

All the things you made me believe
You pulled me in then let me go
I think it's time for you to leave
You've caused more damage than you know

And I'm falling
I'm falling
Away, you won't let me stand
I'm sinking
I'm sinking
I'm sinking in your quicksand

I'm sinking deeper into this mess
I know not to look for your hand
And everything we shared together
Has slipped away into your quicksand

And I'm falling
I'm falling
Away, you won't let me stand
I'm sinking
I'm sinking
I'm sinking in your quicksand

And I'm falling
I'm falling
Away, you won't let me stand
I'm sinking
I'm sinking
I'm sinking in your quicksand

I'm scraping the earth
And fighting for my life
You don't even look up
To see that I'm in strife

You don't even look up to see
I'm falling
I'm falling
And you won't even let me stand
I'm sinking
I'm sinking
In your world of quicksand
something a bit different

Well, this got me where it hurts. Heh. Very well done, I think. The first verse grabbed me right off, and I loved the chorus.
