Seal - Quicksand lyrics

rate me

I'm closer to the

Golden Dawn

Immersed in Crowley's uniform

Of imagery

I'm living in a silent film

Portraying Himmler's sacred realm

Of dream reality

I'm frightened by the total goal

But drawing to the ragged hole

And I ain't got the power, anymore

No I ain't got the power anymore

I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes

I'm living proof of Churchill's lies

I'm destiny

I'm torn between the light and dark

Where others see their targets

Divine symmetry

Should I kiss the viper's fang

Or herald loud the death of Man

'Cause I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts

And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself

Don't deceive with belief

Knowledge comes with death's release

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

I'm not a prophet or a stone age man

Just a mortal with the potential of a superman

And I'm livin' on

I'm tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien

Can't take my eyes from the great salvation

Of bullshit faith

Oh, ohhh if I can't explain what you want to know

You can tell me all about it

On the next Bardo

'Cause I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts

And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself

Don't deceive with belief

Knowledge comes with death's release

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Don't believe in yourself

Don't deceive with belief

Knowledge comes with death's release

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh
