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
Wеll-worn from being pressed

Thеre’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
