Quicksand Lyrics by David Bowie

Quicksand Lyrics

    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
    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
    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
    I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought
    And i ain't got the power anymore

    Don't believe in yourself
    Don't deceive with belief
    Knowledge comes with death's release

    Ah ah ah ah
    Ah ah ah ah ah

    I'm not a prophet or a stone age man
    Just a mortal with the potential of a superman
    I'm living on
    I'm tethered to the logic of homo sapien
    Can't take my eyes from the great salvation
    Of bullshit faith
    If i don't explain what you ought to know
    You can tell me all about it
    On the next bardo
    I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought
    And i ain't got the power anymore

    Don't believe in yourself
    Don't deceive with belief
    Knowledge comes with death's release

    Ah ah ah ah
    Ah ah ah ah ah

    Don't believe in yourself
    Don't deceive with belief
    Knowledge comes with death's release

    Ah ah ah ah
    Ah ah ah ah ah
