Lyrics
Quicksand, my heart is sinking
I try to run but I can't stop thinking
I'm climbing walls, I'm on the ceiling
It's gonna take a miracle to heal me
I'm staring down into the quarry
I see a stone for every sorry
I'm on the edge, I'm going under
And after I die I'm gonna rise from the water
Chorus:
I wanna blast off, let gravity disappear
I'm tired of falling, falling, falling from the weight of fear
Come and lift me up into the clean and clear
I'm waiting on You, Jesus, in the water here
So come and wash me clean
The sky is red, there's blood on my hands
I can't deny I'm guilty where I stand
The verdict's in, I hear 'em shouting
Send me a river to drown this mountain
(Repeat Chorus)
