The Bait

They send you into danger telling you it has to be And they hope that you'll never be late It is the best thing that you ever could see though it never ends good for the bait you're pushed out in front to be seen by the foe and just being there doesn't feel great it's just one of these things that you will need to know though it never ends good for the bait Your handlers tell you that you're doing fine you'll advance soon if you will just wait just do what they say and keep toeing the line though it never ends good for the bait It often feels good to enjoy life in full and to see what the world has this date so get out and about and do things that are cool though it never ends good for the bait Then go back to doing the things that you do and cast all of your fortunes to fate you hope you'll survive all that you are put through though it never ends good for the bait
