Trap Doors Lyrics

Cover art for Trap Doors lyrics by Broken Bells

Wow, I was skeptical of BB at first, probably because I was not overly impressed when I saw The Shin's live shows. This studio collaboration is so dark and catchy.

My two favorite songs of late are this one and "Your head on fire" which nobody has commented on yet either. To me this "Trap Doors" is about making a move, making a break, and moving on. Maybe from a relataionship, a friendship, and job, way of life, a social circle. Don't burn bridges. Know when it's time. Watch your back while you leave. Everyone has advice.

Best verse: Learned that in time You want it to end Your life at this temperature Life under water You gotta let these fools all trample themselves They trample themselves, just dying to enter You're preaching to the choir So turn around, turn around

I love the lyric "Trap doors to endless wisdom"

I think the fact that it is a TRAP door is key. It implies the endless wisdom was hard won, and was paid for in tears.
