lyrics

Verse:
wrong times to be at the wrong place
hard times to work at your own pace
now the times they are not changing

bad times to bet on hope
strange times for singing songs
they say i shouldn't even trust you

come on show me some strength boy
prove you got brains...gotta show you are worthy
faster, you better grow some balls
where are you guts? aren't you ready for everything?

Chorus:
don't make me keep trying but you'll feel like running on quicksand

Verse:
i know you got your own maze
been running your own rat race
these times are not your ol' good ones

things just got out of control
once you took care of your own
but who will take care of you old man?

come on show some strength
prove you still can...gotta show you ain't useless
faster, show everyone who knows best
what about those guts? aren't you ready for everything?

Chorus:
don't make me keep trying but it feels like running on quicksand

Chorus:
won't make me keep trying but you're only drowning, drowning, drowning...

Of Sins - Mini Album
by The Ugly Kings

supported by 4 fans who also own “Quicksand”

This album is just perfect in a minimalistic sense. There's nothing you could take away from it without making it worse and nothing to add that would make it better. 10/10 avalun

A great album from a great band, this one is a bit more straight up hard rock than the more psychedelic later albums. Charlie Hodgson
