The Flytrap III Lyrics

I saw my own reflection and thought it looked out of place
It was scared and distracted; so I took my chance and I gave it chase
I never could catch it though; it was always 2 steps ahead of me
This will be the last time that this energy is trapped in that TV

I may never be able to beat you, but I can sure as hell just walk away
Your hooks in my mind are as in control as they are in disarray
This is the last stage; this is when the plot starts to unfold
When control systems shatter and we watch the thrones of gold
Melt with the labyrinth these puppets have constructed to imprison us
They have no more subtlety; all that remains is a blunderbuss
To sunder us, we can only remain fractions when denied a proper cause
We unite when we see wrong and rally against your unjust laws
This is the second time that we have been able to escape your fate
We played ignorant; you walked into the front door. You’re a sucker for the bait
This is the last time that my reflection will ever be seen as opposed
When you shut me in, I break the bars and truth will be exposed
Then I saw my own reflection, it was finally at ease with the flytrap
That ate me up, spit me out and went into a cold snap
Now that I drift into an unfamiliar and unforgiving place
Pain ahead assured along with a world that loves to rape
Mind body and soul, anything that can be abused will be abused
Don’t be confused… I’m happier in hell than in purgatory and amused
7 billion faces, so many blind to their own reality
In actuality, I cannot see this world as a realistic functionality
This is the last stage; my lobe as finally escaped the grasp of theirs
Monumental victory yet no one seems to care
Oh well, I guess I can live with it…
At least I’m finally out of that fucking bucket and in the frying pan…
This is the last sun set; I am no longer a statistic but a man
You may be lost; you may be scared. But I know who I am
And you can to. Be whatever you think you can…

How to Format Lyrics:
