Rats |
When the rats run riot |
And the screen door slams |
When the trees grow quiet |
Nothing but cats and cans |
When the breeze says try it |
But you can hardly see |
When your love has died |
And you rat on me |
I see your eyes in the half-light |
I see the number on your wall |
Endless strange things I see at night |
You don’t see anything at all |
Shine a light into your soul |
City streets so freezing cold |
City shadows wander out |
When they let the rats out |
Rats |
You call it love alright |
That was the catch |
A cold suicide |
Let me place you in my past |
With other precious toys |
But if you’re ever feeling low down in the fractured sunshine |
I’ll help you feel the noise |
Shine down |
You can go on home |
Shine down |
Go |
Go |
Rats |
You’re working overtime |
You are the moon beyond your mind |
When the rats run riot |
And the screen door slams |
When the world goes quiet |
You’ll know where I am |
You could be my open road |
You could be the reason why |
You could ease my heavy load |
But I want to freeze you out now |
You can let it shine |
Keep that in mind |
When they let out a rat next time |
You could move a little closer |
Until you’re leaning all up around my shoulder |
See these shadows walk around |
When they let the rats out |
