It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
Your hands over my shoulders, said, how free you wanna be?
I said, free enough, Yariv
But I'm shaking life a leaf
So don't touch me
Anger and defensiveness will tax you till you're broke
Disconsolate, alone
And you act like you don't know
But you know
There's gotta be a reason for the things that you do
And if it seems mysterious, it's only to you
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
I can't say I'm sorry for the rest of my life
And even if I could, well, what's it gonna make right?
It's a trap and I set it
And now we're in it and we're all gonna die
You're cradling the catapult, so where you wanna go?
I forgot I got a vote
Picked my favorite place we spoke
A parade float
Accountability and ownership are bullets on your breath
A hornet in the head
So when they sentence you to death
Stay dead
And circulate the mass card
Sketch yourself as a saint
A blindfolded Hail Mary's all you've got left to play
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
I can't fake the feeling without feeling ashamed
And even if I could, well, would you want it that way?
It's a trap and I set it
And now we're in it and we're all gonna die
So determined to make terminal my causal wounds
Self-Inflicted
Drone-delivered
Killer casualty, too
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
It's a trap! And I set it!
Now we're in it and we're all gonna die
I can't erase the history by torching the place
Or purify my meaning just by changing my name
It's a trap and I set it
It's a trap and I set it
It's a trap, it's a trap
It's a trap
