Quicksand Jesus

[Verse 1]

She caught the meltin' sky

It burned, but still the winter passes by and by

To the other side

A slow parade of wind

That blows through trees that wilted with the season's children

[Pre-Chorus]

Are we saved by the words of bastard saints?

Do we live in fear or faith?

Tell me now, who's behind the rain?

[Verse 2]

A maze of tangled grace

The symptoms of "for real" are crumblin' from embrace

But still we chase

The shadows of belief

A new religion clouds our visions of the roots

Of our souls

[Pre-Chorus]

Are we ashamed of our own fate?

Or play the fool for our own sake?

Tell me who's behind the rain

[Chorus]

What do we need? Where do we go

When we get where we don't know?

Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow

When faith's our shelter from the cold?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Oh

What do we need? Where do we go

When we get where we don't know?

Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow

When faith's our shelter from the cold?

[Post-Chorus]

Quicksand Jesus, I'm so far away without you

Quicksand Jesus, I'm so far away without you, oh whoa

Quicksand Jesus, I'm so far away, away

Quicksand Jesus, I'm so far away

[Outro]

Quicksand Jesus, I need you

Quicksand Jesus, I believe you

Quicksand

I'm so far away

Take me away

Yeah-yeah

Yeah-yeah

Oh-whoa

Oh-whoa-oh-oh

Oh, yeah-yeah
