Quicksand

I know that time is flying past
Like the flow of sand in an hourglass
I count the days there's much more to be done

Chorus:
The sirens call a last salute but I can't hear
A serpent caused the fall of man I don't believe
A trojan horse in front of me I just can't see
The smell of death is in the air but I can't breathe

Too much surrounded by the dark
Maybe sometimes we've gone too far
Now I stay here I've never felt so wrong

My body clock is ticking fast
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
I close my eyes and wait for things to come

(Chorus 2X)
