Rabbit in the Snare - The Lulls in Traffic

Take me back to the days before the fire scorched the hillside

Before every simple moment content was a thrill ride

When the sun would kiss the sweet grass, endless fields

I wasn’t able to count the moments left until I’m surely to die

'Cause when you came along I was quite unprepared

Anytime, could I run?

Could I move you if I dared?

Now in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare

Here in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare

Misread antagonist

Is this the end of a catalyst?

Twist in the plot

Never thought I’d end up so average

To be the one who gets caught

Cold, stranded analyst

Take apart my younger years

Splintered limbs that ache from always running

No one ever said thank you

No one ever said I need you

No one ever shared my confidence in fate like we do

But when this hillside began to burn, it all changed

We had a family to see to

Take my mind and take my life

I’d trade it all for another memory to cling to

And another morning fresh with spring dew

It gathers on my eyelids like spring dew

'Cause when you came along I was quite unprepared

Anytime, could I run?

Could I move you if I dared?

Now in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare

Here in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare

Leaving this earth same way I woke up

Speaking indifferently

Feigned the part I was supposed to

Close to dreams that I never chose to chase

Lost the race, it’s not fine

Awaiting my fate on this hillside

Seems I’ve lost touch with who I used to be

And my old self hasn’t been quite used to me

How many suns away until it’s time?

And if I reach the divine, well that would be news to me

'Cause when you came along I was quite unprepared

Anytime, could I run?

Could I move you if I dared?

Now in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare

Here in a daze, I’m a rabbit in the snare
