Quicksand

[Verso 1]
 
D 
  When art is all but gone 
        E    F#m A 
Will anybody care 
D 
  All creativity becomes 
 E       F#m A 
standard fare 
 


[Refrão]
 
D A              F#m    Bm 
   I think we're closer than 
C#m D    A E 
it  seems  to the equator 
D A     F#m     B/D# 
   It's burning everything 
 


[Verso 2]
 
D 
  At what point does it explode 
              E      F#m  A 
At what point do we scream 
D 
  Turn the knowledge we've 
                     E    F#m A 
acquired into action on deceit 
 


[Refrão]
 
D A           F#m    Bm 
   It must be closer than 
C#m D    A     E           C#m D A 
it  seems to a total fiasco 
F#m Bm   C#m D 
Charcoal horizons they're rising 

A/C# D        E 
      The situation 
          F#m 
calls for a decision 
A/C# D         E 
      Put your drink down 
       F#m 
slowly think it through 
A/C# D       E 
      Option one watch yourself 
 F#m          A/C# D 
slowly sink in      Number 
A/C#            D 
two hold on for anything

  At what point does it explode
