Lyrics

1 RABBIT IN THE SNARE -
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. BECAUSE WHEN YOU CAME ALONG I WAS QUITE UNPREPARED. ANYTIME, COULD I RUN? COULD I MOVE 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 THAT GETS CAUGHT. COLD STRANDED ANALYSTS 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. 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 WHILE I’M DREAMING OF YOU. LEAVING THIS EARTH THE 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.
