Song information
Heading full throttle into a musical wilderness, from 2014.

I’d run out of ideas, I am surprised listening to this now, that it’s even mildly listenable. Recorded in a miserable environment, I was miserable, the tone is miserable.

Lyrics
Quicksand
Sinking in the quicksand
So much quicksand
Sinking in the quicksand
So much quicksand 
Sinking in the quicksand

Do you ever think about that summer?
Or does it fill you with regret?
Early morning on the black sandy shore
Starring towards America
You looked like you were looking for more
You turned and smiled
And said “You’ve been watching me.”
I nodded and made some excuse of a reply
“Let’s walk”, you said.
That morning you told me your life story
And how you had no plans for the future
“Sounds familiar” I said
We both laughed

Quicksand
Sinking in the quicksand
So much quicksand
Sinking in the quicksand
So much quicksand 
Sinking in the quicksand

Being on that Island was another world
The kind of place 
You could loose yourself 
“I come here as often as I can,” you said. “It’s magical”
Then there’s the reality of the city over there
Concrete and Streetcars
Cycle lanes and gridlock 
Culture shock in many ways
You look lost
Deep in thought
Walking through those sand dunes
The beautiful sky hanging overhead
The look in you’re eyes

Quicksand sucks... Literally! But this piece doesn't at all. Good Alt-rocker depicting a place we've all been at one time or another.

@GR646 & @Wyndsok thanks guys for the reaction.
Slightly later than planned for the first time anywhere added the complete lyrics too. Currently I'm working on a new live set list and Quicksand is a contender to be included.
