Quicksand Lyrics - Hunky Dory - David Bowie

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 frightened by the total goal 

Drawing to the ragged hole 

And I ain't got the power any more 

No I ain't got the power any more 

I'm the twisted name in Goebbel's eyes 

Living proof of Churchill's lies, I'm destiny 

I'm torn between the light and dark 

Where others see their targets, in divine symmetry 

Should I kiss the viper's fang 

Or herald in the death of Man 

I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought 

And I ain't got the power any more

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 

I'm tethered to the logic of homo sapien 

Can't take my eyes from the great salvation, of bullshit 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 thought 

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
