Soul sand

*Verse 1*

I’ll never be good enough, I see it clear

Just the one you want when no one's near

I played the fool, thought I had your heart

But I was just a shadow from the start

I see it now, the shame runs deep

Ashamed of the pieces of me you keep

Chasing perfection in the dark

Losing myself just to leave a mark

*Pre-Chorus*

I can’t believe I let it happen again

Falling victim to a game I can’t win

But I’m so desperate for a love I understand

Now I’m left alone where I stand

*Chorus*

I’m sinking down, deep in the soul sand

Drowning slow, can’t find a place to land

I reached for you, but you let go

Left me here with nothing but the echo

Of the lies I believed, hand in hand

Now I’m stuck sinking in the soul sand

*Verse 2*

I thought I’d be enough if I gave it all

But I’m just the one you call when you fall

Never your first, just a second choice

I hear the truth in the silence of your voice

I gave my soul, I gave my skin

Now I’m left hollow, wearing thin

Chasing the light you promised me

But all I found was misery

*Pre-Chorus*

I can’t believe I let it happen again

Falling victim to a love that pretends

I was so desperate, craving a hand

Now I’m sinking alone where I stand

*Chorus*

I’m sinking down, deep in the soul sand

Drowning slow, can’t find a place to land

I reached for you, but you let go

Left me here with nothing but the echo

Of the lies I believed, hand in hand

Now I’m stuck sinking in the soul sand

*Bridge*

You were the light I couldn't touch

Now I see I gave you too much

I traded my worth for your empty love

Now I’m sinking, can’t rise above

*Chorus*

I’m sinking down, deep in the soul sand

Drowning slow, can’t find a place to land

I reached for you, but you let go

Left me here with nothing but the echo

Of the lies I believed, hand in hand

Now I’m stuck sinking in the soul sand

*Outro*

I’ll never be good enough, I know

But I keep sinking, sinking slow

Lost in the depths of what we planned

Alone forever in the soul sand.
