Ambush out of nowhere,
Got me good, struck me down,
Had me struggling for air
Hit the sore spot,
A punch in the gut,
I feel myself tipping over.
I don’t know why this illusion
Persisted in my head.
Am I trapped in my delusions
Or you just scared of losing hope?
No I’m not ready to go.
My time is ticking, panic’s shifting,
And you with a killer blow.
Ambush out of nowhere,
Got me good, struck me down,
Had me struggling for air.
Hit the sore spot,
A punch in the gut,
I feel myself tipping over.
Gravity fails, like all else,
Pulls to my personal black hole,
Sucks up all that I love,
And soon it will all be over.
Transparency’s been a curse.
All my cards open to read.
An evaluation of a situation,
What’s worth it in the end?
The stakeholder wants no risk at all,
It doesn’t work like that my friend.
Ambush out of nowhere,
Got me good, struck me down,
Had me struggling for air.
Hit the sore spot,
A punch in the gut,
I feel myself tipping over.
Gravity fails, like all else,
Pulls to my personal black hole,
Sucks up all that I love,
And soon it will all be over.

Honestly the tightest 3-piece I've ever heard. There is so much to discover in every song. Not a single weakness as far as I can see. Can't praise this enough. Trampled Daisy
