The Trapdoor |
| On a summer night I took a walk |
| Out in the fields where the grass snakes hide |
| Six years old, tall as a chair |
| Found the trapdoor hidden from sight |
| Fell into the blackness, seemed like hours |
| I hit the ground on a sea of skulls |
| There was no treasure, just stolen souls |
| Taken years ago down this endless hole |
| Man must kill to live or quench his thirst |
| Let’s go back to the source where it first came from |
| Looked death in the eyes, falling stalactites |
| Then burnt by a light as angels flew by |
| Who pulled me back up to the moonlit sky |
| Covered in dust, it was hard not to cry |
| Man must kill to live or quench his thirst |
| Let’s go back to the source where it first came from |
| Falling through trapdoors wherever I go |
| Kicking and screaming 'cause nobody knows |
| There’s always a trapdoor wherever you step |
| Keep your eyes open, you deserve what you get |
| Keep your eyes open, you deserve what you get |
| Keep your eyes open, you deserve what you get |
