Correction Lyrics Quicksand, Live Phoenix Festival ’97 by David Bowie

Back

Lyrics

I'm closer to the Golden Dawn
Immersed in Crowley's uniform
Of imagery
I'm living in a silent film
Portraying Himmler's sacred realm
Of dream reality

I'm Drawing to the ragged hole
I'm frightened by the total goal
And I ain't got the power anymore
No I ain't got the power anymore

I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes
Living proof of Churchill's lies
I'm destiny
I'm torn between the light and dark
Where others see their targets
Divine symmetry

Should I kiss the vipеr's fang
Or herald loud the death of Man
I'm sinking in thе quicksand of my thoughts
And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!

I'm not a prophet or a stone age man
Just a mortal with potential of a superman
I'm living on
Tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien
Can't take my eyes from the great salvation
Of bullsh*t faith

If I don't explain what you ought to know
You can tell me all about it
On the next Bardo
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts
And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!
Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!

Thank you! Good evening, welcome to Phoenix!
