Lyrics
I'm fighting against the quicksand
[Verse 1]
I've reached the end of my rope
I've tired myself out
I'm sick of fighting against
A life that beats me down
[Chorus]
If you knew what I knew
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
Wish you could see what I see
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
Been fighting against the quicksand
[Refrain]
Oh my god
I can't believe that I've made it this far
'Cause every day I'm close to giving up
No longer leaning on that same old crutch
I'm finding strength in my scars
Oh
[Verse 2]
I'm fighting
I'm fighting against the quicksand
I'm burning myself out
Please don't let me drown
[Chorus]
If you knew what I knew
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
Wish you could see what I see
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
Been fighting against the quicksand
[Refrain]
Oh my god
I can't believe that I've made it this far
Don't let me
Drown
Oh
Oh god, don't let me drown
[Chorus]
If you knew what I knew
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
Wish you could see what I see
Then maybe you'd understand
Why I'm the way that I am
Maybe it'd all make sense
