Trap Door Lyrics
Can you see your reflection
False strength, hollow protection
Run from pain and rejection
The truth stabs again
Till the skin is broken
And the cut is open
And the words once spoken
Just fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Big head leads to confusion
Strong heart pumps up delusion
Tough talk, one voice communion
Medicate the pain
Justify your ego
Living with denial
And the thoughts so vile
Won't fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
It's coming
You're falling
You're on your own with no one left to blame
Can't sleep? 'cause you've made your own bed
The sentence of the helpless
Sink deep to the trial in your head
The court of the selfish
Why? Tell me why? Can't evade or escape the reality
A true lie and a broken promise
A Judas and a doubting Thomas
A tragedy just to keep you honest
Guilty always fall
Through the trap door
Fear the trap door
Through the trap door
The trap door, the trap door
No fear, too scared to look up
Can't win, nothing but bad luck
Clock ticks, your time to face up
You can't run for long
When your world is broken
Your trap door is open
The very words you choke on
Just fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
False strength, hollow protection
Run from pain and rejection
The truth stabs again
And the cut is open
And the words once spoken
Just fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Strong heart pumps up delusion
Tough talk, one voice communion
Medicate the pain
Living with denial
And the thoughts so vile
Won't fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
You're falling
You're on your own with no one left to blame
The sentence of the helpless
Sink deep to the trial in your head
The court of the selfish
Why? Tell me why? Can't evade or escape the reality
A Judas and a doubting Thomas
A tragedy just to keep you honest
Guilty always fall
Fear the trap door
Through the trap door
The trap door, the trap door
Can't win, nothing but bad luck
Clock ticks, your time to face up
You can't run for long
Your trap door is open
The very words you choke on
Just fade away
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door
Too late, standing on the trap door

The song is about how lying is digging your own grave, which is what "can't sleep because you made your own bed" refers to. The truth is depicted as the source of pain for the person in the song, "the truth stabs again".
The Judas and Thomas part refers to that person being like a combination of those two, a traitor and someone who won't believe the truth.
The song ends with the lies falling apart, and the person being left with nothing anymore.
No comments?!? this song is awesome. From what I understand, this song is about someone betraying your or backstabbing you, and now that person lives in fear that your gunna get your revenge
this song is awsome and ur probably right
When someone said some words The words actually fade away Bıt they stabbed and cut a wound He saw a reflection that he never did His false strength And in realty an empty protection They Fade away too He actually had always run away from pain and rejection
Too much thinking leads to confusion so he rather he tried to justify his ego, talked tough, he made his one way communication just for his ego, so that he ran away from his pains…but he was Living with denial…now these unpleasent thoughts won't fade away after this reflection
A true lie is Judas, a broken promise is doubting Thomas This tragedy story was just to keep you honest! But you were guilty…and guilty always fall
He tough he never had any fear but he actually was too scared to face the truth…. The truth is we all die, and nearing death makes him to remember face death Can't win, nothing but bad luck Clock ticks, time comes to face the truth He is old and can't run for long His world of false presumtions is now broken Your trap door is open The very words that he said so selfishly and choke on
He can't sleep 'cause he made his choices that made him so his sentence is helpless trials in his head as he feels guilty courts why he was always so selfish and now alone
The key moment comes… “Why? Tell me why? Can't evade or escape the realiity..
He still wants to escape the reality, to his smooth world where he is the hero and his tough talks create one voice communion…
You are not alone Ozzy, we love you as you are????
