Built To Spill - Time Trap Lyrics






It's barely yours on loan
What you think you own
The place that you call home
The ideas in your bones

In your bones

This would still feel dumb
Back where you're from
Do you, do you want to change your mind?
Do you want to change your mind?

'Cause you could never know that
In a time trap, in a time trap

Guess that's all fair now because
Guess that's all there ever was
Grey and sprawling
Save your crawling

'Cause you could never know that
In a time trap, in a time trap

Do you want to save your life?
Do you want to save your life?

'Cause you could never know that
In a time trap, in a time trap

  17. G.... K....

  24. L.... O....

    Ummmmmm....how come nobody said nothing about this band to me before? I just fell into this awesome time trap.

    L.... O....

    you are in for a treat. listen to their newest one too, so good! i'm fairly new too but everything i've heard is good.

    L.... O....

    Everything they've made is pretty great, but if you're just getting started, pick up "Perfect From Now On" and "Keep it Like a Secret". They're not just Built to Spill's best work, they're seriously some of the greatest indie rock albums ever recorded.

    L.... O....

    extremely true.

    L.... O....

    I once asked a musician friend that same question. Their answer to me was "Whenever I had you listen to them you were to drunk to remember".

  25. L.... ....

    I'm here because of this band's influence on Modest Mouse and holy shit this band has made me SPILL my beans. love them

  26. G.... U....

    I will never understand why more people do not know this band and how great they are! Best band ever! OH well, I guess I Will keep it like a secret.

    G.... U....

    Daniel Ramos I've been very fortunate, I have seen them live three times. I have been listening to them since I was about 16, I am 38 now. wow how time flies.

    G.... U....

  34. N.... W....

    I remember one time years ago I was leaving Madison WI, after a concert for some random band and I was getting high with my friend who took me there. I forgot to get on I94 back to Milwaukee and we listened to this album and that Modest Mouse album "this is a long drive for someone with nothing to think about" on the way... We didn't realize where we were or that we had made a huge mistake until it was about 4 in the morning and we never got home.. Needless to say.. I love this album and this song.

    N.... W....

    do not snipe the president do not kill
    i am c faterh r
    i am father of tmutants they are all slipstream metro
