Lamb trap
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
Lamb trap, that's what I'd call you
If I knew before what beast you are
I couldn't give you my heart
You will stay my daily nightmare
Till I learn
How to treat you to stand up again
Lamb trap, that's what you suddenly became
I was caught , now I aim
I will destroy all your defences
I will jump through all your fences
And I will learn
How to crush you instead
Lamb trap, in which I'll change
Will be a weapon with which I'll avenge
You will taste this magic potion
Filled with all painfull emotions
Only then , will you learn
You shouldn't have made such mistake
