Speed Trap Lyrics

Like the other night

Her Mercury's rising

But not in retrograde

She decries the orbit she made

Like a mother's lie

It's just temporary

Love will burn the shade

Thin disguise and truth delayed

Driving and striving she stays on the right

Pacing displacing all those dotted lines

Everyone asks how she is all the time

All she replies

I won't slow down

I swear I'm fine I swear we're fine

Time won't slow down

I said I'm fine Yeah, no, we're fine

It's another fight

Mercurial sighing

He can't act his age

He won't try to paraphrase

In another life

She would still make her

And find another way

To defy the orbit she's made

Driving and striving she stays on the right

Pacing displacing all those dotted lines

Everyone asks how she is all the time

All she replies

I won't slow down

I swear I'm fine I swear we're fine

Time won't slow down

I said I'm fine Yeah, no, we're fine

I won't slow down

I swear I'm fine I swear we're fine

Time won't slow down

I said I'm fine I'll tell you why

I'm so damn fine that I could break in the breeze

Your lips will slip, I will do as I please

Your yellow lines wasted time

Erase the paint Now she's mine

I won't slow down

Now that you signed, I'm feeling fine

I won't slow down

I swear I'm fine I swear we're fine

Time won't slow down

I said I'm fine But don't cross my line

I won't slow down

I swear I'm fine I swear we're fine

Time won't slow down

I said I'm fine Yeah, no, we're fine
