Andy Northrup quicksand decay

Select language to translate this lyric

I found a blanket and a feeling that was so strong
Said now's the time that I sit and write a wrong song
No more of this pleasing everyone but me
I could sleep if I took a bunch of these pills
I could breathe if the planet wasn't so ill
I'm buying these glasses cause I don't want to see
And I stabbed you in my sleep last night
Cause you smiled while you handed me that knife and told me
Oh baby could you please just tell the truth
Well I could babe.... but not to you
I wasn't trying to wake up in a new world
I wasn't crying or looking for a new girl
I'm sitting here peaceful in my tortured way
I wanna know how to right the old wrongs
I wanna grow; I'm wishing I could feel strong
My pulse is just racing in this quicksand decay
Cause I stabbed you in my sleep last night
And you smiled while you handed me that knife and told me
Oh baby could you please just tell the truth
Well I could babe.... but not to you
Do you wake and think about the feelings
Do you shake and stare up at the ceiling
I'm holding you hostage till you finally agree
I'm tearful at the lives you ruin
I'm fearful of the brine you're brewing
I wonder who raised you and who left you diseased
And I'll stab you in my sleep tonight
And you'll smile while you're handing me that knife and tell me
Oh baby could you please just tell the truth
Well I could babe.... but not to you.
