Lyrics of 'How To Escape Quicksand' by The Wandering Found

Step one, they say to stay Awake
But I'm already past that now
Step two, bring someone else along with you
To pull you up when you can't figure out how
Step three, don't be afraid to drop what's heavy
Gotta keep your head above the ground
And once more, step four, relax and of yourself implore
That you stay still and don't make a sound
'Cause I can feel myself sinking
Losing my grip, my control
And I can't help but keep on thinking
That maybe I was destined for this hole
And people say that no one dies from quicksand
But people have been wrong before
So don't you tell me that I'm not in danger
That this is something I can just ignore
Step five, you gotta try and stay alive
Don't forget to breath
And then step six, the fix, just keep your cool
Try all your tricks
Don't let your temper seethe
Take your time, step seven keeps the paradigm
Too much movement only hurts you in the end
And then step eight, just take a break
To keep your head on straight
But I really can't pretend
That I don't feel myself sinking
Losing my grip, my control
And I can't help but keep on thinking
That maybe I was destined for this hole
And people say that no one dies from quicksand
But people have been wrong before
So don't you tell me that I'm not in danger
That this is something I can just ignore
And what do I do when steps one through eight
Don't do what they're supposed to?
Am I too far gone?
There's less of me up than down
Am I supposed to let myself drown?
So everyone else can move on?
And people say that no one dies from quicksand
But people have been wrong before
So don't you tell me that I'm not in danger
That this is something I can just ignore
