I stand by my power
a betrayal of sorts
I seek my answers
beyond the courts
This seems the trap of happiness.
Hey, this is the trap of happiness.
When I breath no more
Have a beer over my grave.
Stay and party a little more
Just like everything's the same
In this trap of happiness.
This seems the trap of happiness.
Hey, this is the trap of happiness.
They went and sold my day
to buy the keeper
Go and bid on my day
to pay the reaper
This seems the trap of happiness.
Hey, this is the trap of happiness.
I take every day
with all the risks
I know that beyond tomorrow
Is just the trap of happiness.
This seems the trap of happiness.
Hey, this is the trap of happiness.

i like it alot, and makes me think of the opening of A Christmas Carol, in that it seems to be about living a life of work and pragmatic toil only to see your family's wealth looted to pay for funerary tolls.
but maybe that's just me being a regular Winter Soul. sweatdrop

Thanks. As I was writing it, I thought about putting it to music, something like DTAP by Nephew.
