Always A Victim
Trixter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Between the eyes
Never saw it comin'
But it made me blind
And in my darkness
Fell to my knees
Can't you hear me screamin'
Baby please, please, please
Feel like a prisoner
Locked up in time
There's no escaping
Baby you're the mastermind
When will this sentence ever end
And my new life begin
If this is a crime
You'd be convicted
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
You stole my heart
And tied me in chains
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
Always your victim
Always your victim
Always your victim
She took my heart and she threw it away
Like the keeper you hold the key
I'm the captive of your insanity
You know you're guilty, no alibi
Ain't no justice, no reason why
When will this sentence ever end
And my new life begin
If this is a crime
You'd be convicted
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
You stole my heart
And tied me in chains
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
I'm screamin' my heart out
I'm down on my knees
I get no reaction
What more do you want
If this is a crime
You'd be convicted
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
You stole my heart
And tied me in chains
I'll do my time
I'm your victim
Always your victim
Always your victim
Always your victim
She took my heart and she threw it away
The lyrics to Trixter's song Always A Victim talk about being trapped in a toxic relationship, where the recipient feels like a prisoner. The singer describes being blindsided and falling to their knees, pleading to their partner. They are trapped and feel like they are never going to be released from the chains in which their partner has placed them. The chorus repeats the phrase "always your victim," emphasizing the dominant's power over the situation. The singer feels as if they are screaming and putting in all the effort, but they receive no reaction from their partner, making them feel hopeless.
The verse "If this is a crime, you'd be convicted, I'll do my time, I'm your victim," speaks to the idea that even though the singer knows that their partner is guilty of controlling and manipulating them, they have no choice but to stay in the relationship. They are willing to take the blame and do whatever their partner wants, even if it means sacrificing their own happiness. The bridge of the song continues to convey the feeling of helplessness, describing the singer as a captive of their partner's insanity.
