"Trap Door" lyrics
"Trap Door"
I pledge myself to your misery
I kneel at its throne
Respecting your proclivity
To languish on your own
Like a snowflake starting an avalanche
It always depends
On where you land
There's a trap door in your heart
That I'm free-falling through
I can only get so close
So close to you
I give myself to your memory
You can lock me in its cage
But if only the winners write history
There will be nothing on our page
You were a boulder tumbling down a hill
And my fate was all but sealed
By standing still
There's a trap door in your heart
And a button on your desk
Well-worn from being pressed
There's a trap door in your heart
I'm falling through
There's a trap door in your heart
Where everyone disappears
When they reach to pull you near
There's a trap door in your heart
I wish I knew
And now I'm falling through

We were looking at the bags
Wondering if any of the colors

To seek out a new romance
