The Trap Door

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your enemy's guard cornered you in a yard You paid him off and ran You knew what he'd understand He's just a working man But you think he's a fool Just a capitalist tool Who plays the games of life to tie If the tables had been turned tonight There'd be nothing that his money could buy [Chorus] But soon the trap door gives in Under the wicked weight of sin You fall down down down Further than you've ever been Yeah the trap door falls open Just as you were smugly hoping That you could cheat and win The trap door falls in [Verse 2] So one escape does not a life make The earth floats under your feet You can't trust who you meet Your bravery's a conceit It's no longer suspense It's a fear that makes sense Pulling you through the ground The trap door makes no sound One day you're just not around [Chorus] 'Cause the trap door gives in Under the wicked weight of sin You fall down down down Further than you've ever been Yeah the trap door falls open Just as you were smugly hoping That you could cheat and win The trap door falls in [Verse 3] I should have known when I was struck with a stone That you were aiming at the moon That like a gas balloon You'd come falling soon Yeah-eh [Chorus] Yeah the trap door gives in Under the wicked weight of sin You fall down down down Further than you've ever been Yeah the trap door falls open Just as you were smugly hoping That you could cheat and win The trap door falls in [Outro] That you could cheat and win The trap door falls in
