Wise Blood - Rat

Текст песни

I had a dog but he died
kissed the wire and friend
didnt even have time to take his body outside
Whole army circled up started having a feast
didn’t waste a single bit from his head to his feat
and I can cry all I want but it wont matter much,
at the end of the day I know the Rat King is boss
I can hear him the wall always cracking his whip
He’s got a little eye patch and an iron fist
If you really piss him off he’ll come looking for you
He’s got a whole group of friends twenty more than I knew
and I can argue all I want but it won’t matter much
at the end of the day I know the Rat King is boss
Nice days I spend days far away
I run the risk of getting stormed if I show my face
had this crazy idea we could strike up a truce
but I don’t have any leverage so it’s really no use
and I can cry all I want but it won’t matter much
at the end of the day I know the Rat King is boss
all the traps I set just ended up in my bed
with a gallon of blood and a dead cats head
I’ve been keeping it cool but it’s been getting to me
I’ve got these vivid nightmares every time that I sleep
and I can argue all I want but it won’t matter much
at the end of the day I know the Rat King is boss
One day soon I’m gonna run out of room
I’m gonna buy a new dog and he’ll smell like perfume
but until that time
I will be stuck right here
living half my life
swallowed up by this fear
and I can cry all I want but it don’t matter much at the end of the day I know
the Rat King is boss
The battle lines have been drawn
They’ll be caught in con?
Now it’s just me and him
and that’s what I really want
it’s time that I took stance
cause I’ve been under attack
I’m going in for the kill
I’m not sure that I’ll be back
