Can Opener Lyrics

A trap to fall, fall into easy
Believe in what you look like outside

A stain you can? t remove
A stain that keeps you from that place
Where you? d probably have much left to prove

Come down, don? t fall over your ego
Don? t mind your friends
They just want to go where the fun goes down
Yeah, you want to go up, up, up, up

Hip, hip, hooray, for you
Now you're the one that everyone talks about
The attention you're not getting, it makes you so upset


So take me down
To the place where you can look your best
Better than anyone else around

A stain you can? t remove
A stain that keeps you from that place
Where you? d probably have much less to prove

Once you tried, once you tried
Tried to get it right
But you couldn? t figure out what it takes to be liked

You? re grown up and now you? ve gone back
To find a way to get along, it? s just an act
You can wipe that smile
Now you? re the one that everyone talks about

Take time, take it easy
I know you work so hard
But your advantage is your beauty
And that? s beautiful

Take time, take it easy
I know you work so hard
But you know what your advantage is
And that? s beautiful, and that? s beautiful
And that? s beauty

There is more than one artist named Quicksand:

1) Quicksand is an American post-hardcore band from New York City founded in 1990 by Gorilla Biscuits guitarist Walter Schreifels.

The band released two widely-acclaimed albums, Slip and Manic Compression, before disbanding in 1995. In 1997, Quicksand reunited, and embarked on a successful tour in 1998 with Deftones. Towards the end of the year they entered the studio to begin work on a follow-up to Manic Compression, but tensions within the band caused them to split up for good.

Walter went on to form Rival Schools. Sergio went on to tour and record with the Deftones to fill in while bassist Chi Cheng recovered from a severe car accident, eventually becoming a fulltime member.

2) Quicksand were an obscure Welsh psychedelic and progressive rock band active in the early 1970s. The members were Robert Collins, Jimmy Davies, Phil Davies and Anthony Stone. They released two singles, Passing By/Cobblestones (Carnaby CNS 4015) in 1970 and Time To Live/Empty Street, Empty Heart (Dawn DNS 1046) in 1973. Their only album, Home Is Where I Belong (Dawn DNLS 3056), was released in 1974.

3) Quicksand (Zivo blato) is a Croatian heavy metal band. It was founded in Split in 1998 by folk/rock singer Sinisa Vuco. It's a trio consisting of Sinisa Vuco - which takes the stage name Vasilije Mitu (guitar/vocals), Veseli Sir (bass), and Mala Planina (drums). "Mala Planina" is actually Mirjan Jovanovic - "Toso", a famous drummer from Split. Read more on Last.fm.
