Deep in 
Quick sand 
You dive in 
At the shallow end 
You break your 
Neck and 
You’re never ever gonna get up again 


The glass house that you lived in 
Is deep in the quickening 
Angels might call by 
But fools they rush in 


Bring some peace to your mind 
For today is a new day 


Here in my hand 
Time is just sand 
Fine lines of love and hate 
There on your face 
But I look at this way 
In the next seven days 
In the next 
It might just change 


How can I write 
The story that 
Went and wrote itself 
Down on paperback 
Called “the foutain of know thyself” 
It’s a lonely book 
Still upon the shelf 


It’ll be all smiles 
And we’ll rise and ride 
On the waves of a sinking feeling 


Bring some peace to your mind 
For today is a new day 


Happy people don’t give into 
Happy people don’t give into 
That sinking feeling 


It’ll be all smiles 
And we’ll rise and we’ll sail 


It’ll be all smiles 
And we’ll rise and we’ll sail 
On the waves 


It’ll be all smiles 
And we’ll rise and we’ll sail 
On the waves 
Of a sinking feeling
