When you’re caught in a dark empire,
The cards are cold but you can’t quit
The hand you’re holding, I’ve seen it now
I bet this town will turn to tripwire
Your voice is a wildfire,
Leveling everything down
I’m suffering in silence now
How can this town not turn to tripwire?
I’ve got a jeweler’s eye
You and me are rough-cut
Nothing’s been enough, but now
Don’t let this town turn to tripwire
You can’t leave yourself behind
Keep digging through the deck for a diamond
You can’t see the wreck that I’m in now
Now this town has turned to tripwire
