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't 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 mark the route

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 lowdown
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 won't know where I am

You could be my open road

You could be the reason why

You could ease my heavy load

But i'm gonna freeze you out now

You can let it shine

Keep that in mind

When they let 'm out this time

You could move a little closer

Until you're leaning all up around my shoulder

City shadows mark the route

When they let the rats out
