Quicksand - Theory of a Deadman
Lyrics by：Theory Of A Deadman/Christine Connolly
Why in East LA
There's a little girl dreaming of her family
She says The system won't give love for me
Another lost soul's what you'll wind up being
Later on in her teenage years
After a million disappointments and some dried up tears yeah
Ran to the streets to be safe from fear
Of another group home that she'll wind up leaving
No don't got no chance at life
No might just end up dying
No no parents or no rights
So so hold back from crying
Been falling in quicksand all her life
Hoping for a hand to pull her out
She tried to leave this world behind
But the ground is caving
She don't got nobody like you do Yeah yeah
Then she finally falls in love
What is love really when you're high on d**gs
He taught her how to hold a gun
And to keep her hand steady while he bags the money
Knock the dirty mattress down
Hundred dollar bills and they roll around
Police are kicking down the door
She got tripped up and he takes off running
No don't got no chance at life
Not sure why she is fighting
No no parents or no rights
So so hold back from crying
Been falling in quicksand all her life
Hoping for a hand to pull her out
She tried to leave this world behind
But the ground is caving
She don't got nobody like you do Yeah yeah
Beat down another night in juvie
On her own again saying I wish they'd shoot me
Still got no place to go
No white picket fence she can call her home
Been falling in quicksand all her life
Hoping for a hand to pull her out
She tried to leave this world behind
But the ground is caving
She don't got nobody like you do Yeah yeah
She don't got nobody like you do Yeah yeah
