Mouse Traps

from Juxtaprose by Zap Tura

lyrics

Underneath the glove
Are fingers clawing through the mud
To find the things they thought they've dropped
Before you found out what you've lost
And though the road is dry its slick
You hit the breaks, I hope they stick
Cause I let a million things pass by
And you let a thousand suck you dry
And though your stains and scars won't bend
I hope to God you understand
I took that break so you could land

I'm not sorry
You're not leaving
Me behind to squish your bee stings
Even when I'm down I'm not like you
California
Sarasota
Places I feel like exploding
I wanna be where I can't change my mind

The doctor told me you should get some sleep
It was their only cotton recipe
With fingers crackling from all the dust
You cannonballed the divan trundle cusp
With pictures, places, maps, ideas, and roads
That took you backwards where you want to go
To the basement attic of your car
I thought I saw you there but you're so far

Mouse traps
Taking a bit too long to last too long
To watch your lucky charms dry out
And swim across the the shore but
Now they're gone
They're gone away
And there's not much you can say
Besides the fact that things have changed
And I'm sorry that I've stayed the same
And if I see you there again
I hope we'll get along
Or just pretend
