The Trap’s My Trip
You know it's never gonna last a lifetime
So I say you're better off if you end it now
Then you take a look around the properties
There's a lot to see, let it surround you now
'cause if you are sure you are ridiculous
One can never be not even the best of us
I know, 'cause I've been there
You disappoint yourself if you stay like that
You'll grow bitter, I can see it happening
And then you'll wish you'd done as I said
But it's too late, you're already stuck
And you walk around looking for reasons to make it worthwhile
But you never find them
I know, 'cause I've been there
But if you'd seen her
The first time that we met
She walked up to me, she walked up to me
I never would have guessed, I would come to depend on her
I would come to depend on her
As she approached me, talked to me, spoke my name
She spoke my name, she spoke my name
I never would have guessed, I would come to depend on her
I would come to depend on her
But as it happens
If I picture me growing old without her
Without her
That I couldn't bear, I see her by my side
I see her by my side
I need to focus on the things that I do best
And work on that, and work on that
Now I'm working this affair
I won't finish 'til I'm done, I won't finish 'til I'm done
Up until now, I've been only wasting time
Wasting time, I'm wasting time
That's not what I need, the only time I need
Is the time I've spent on this here
And if you say
That I'm held in a trap
Then I shout from the bottom
And the top of me
That is where I wanna be
And if you say
So entrapments your trip
Then I shout from the bottom
And the top of me
If that's how you see it so be it
And if you say
That I'm held in a trap
Then I shout from the bottom
And the top of me
That is where I wanna be
So if you say
That entrapments your trip
Then I shout from the bottom
And the top of me
If that's how you see it, so be it
