Trapline

I've been caught in a trapline
I can feel it slowly sinking in
The rust on the teeth
The infection starts to begin
I can't break myself free
From my self-made chains
I can't go on this way
I can't go on this way

I don't know how
I endured this long
Day-in day-out
My life in my hands
I can see now
How this all played out
Down on the ground
To weak to stand
I wasn't alive
When I woke today
Open my eyes
And realize what I've done
Hang by a thread
There is nothing but
The voice in my head
Calling me home

I've been watching the sand fall
And it's slowly falling away
It's time to slow it down
Before I start to decay
Put out a side of the candle
That burns from both ends
I can't go on this way
I can't go on this way

The need for change is dire
It's time to exist or expire
