Mousetrap
I should really be asleep by now,
thoughts of you just won’t let me down.
I just followed your trace around
I thought here’s my lost and found
Being in love, isn’t as nice, as they say
I feel like a mouse, so small and gray
I’m so scared, my heart starts to race
Walked in a trap, I’m stuck in this place,
In this silence, you heard my tap,
I couldn’t see, as there was a sudden flap
I got caught and now I’m snapped.
I had no choice and now I feel trapped,
I look in your eyes, you look back in mine
Pleading with you in the dead of the night.
You cover my mouth, I just want to cry
It’s too dark, please turn back on the lights.
Please help, I did nothing wrong,
I just saw you and fell for your charm,
Silly things I do, when I’m in love
While you act sly as a thief with gloves
I hate myself for feeling this way,
I can’t shake this blindfold away,
thinking about you night and day,
I want to move, but you make me stay.
Sweaty palms, with the feel of despair.
you play a game with me, so cruel and unfair
I am whimpering in the corner and feel scared
The snaps weigh heavy, a load I can’t bear.
make the first step, please set me free,
but you keep me waiting, slowly killing me.
If you wish, I’d go, but you don’t let me leave
You are taking my breath and my sleep
I’m begging for mercy, just let me go
But you hold me tighter, don’t you know?
I couldn’t run away, I was too slow
Couldn’t withstand, too weak and low
