The 77s * Track #12 On Pray Naked

Self-Made Trap Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll beat the rap
For a self-made trap
Get all tied up
In endless crap
Quicksand
I planned
Pitfalls
I dig 'em all

[Verse 2]
Self-made rope
And self-made binds
I'm all wrapped up
In a sour grape vine
A human web
I've spun every thread
Tight nets
I weave all I can get
A rat's maze
Wouldn't faze
Brick walls
I'm enthralled

[Chorus 1]
Self-made traps, self-made snares
Handicaps and wheelchairs
Drown myself in rain, freeze myself in snow
Help comes fast, pride goes slow
Could be free if I choose
Born to win
(Dying to lose)

[Verse 3]
Self-made twine
Hand-made chains
I'm all bound up
And self-contained
Jail cells
I build well
Lion's dens
I got a yen
Landmines
I design
Avalanche
I wouldn't blanch

[Chorus 1]
Self-made traps, self-made snares
Handicaps and wheelchairs
Drown myself in rain, freeze myself in snow
Help comes fast, pride goes slow
Could be free if I choose
Born to win, dying to lose
The warden comes to set me free
I grip the bars, swallow up the key

[Bridge]
It's like serving time when there's none left
On a fast train nowhere, but we're not there yet
The scenery moves, the train stands still

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Dungeon dark
I'll quench every spark
A hangman's noose
Never leave 'em loose

[Chorus 2]
Self-made traps, self-made locks
Combinations I forgot
For guards and gates I await
I'm a natural-born inmate
Could be free if I choose
Born to win, dyin' to lose
Lust came fast, love left slow
The die is cast, the word is no

[Guitar Solo]

Because the track is bombastic and cool and I like my vocal on it. The end is so dark and mysterious and the lyric scares the crap out of me. We bat 1000 on that one.
