2
When the rats run riot,
3
and the screen door slams
4
When the trees grow quiet,
5
nothing but cats and cans
6
When the breeze says "try it",
7
but you can hardly see
8
When your love has died,
9
and you rat on me
10
I see your eyes in the half-light,
11
I see the number on your wall
12
Endless strange things I see at night,
13
you don't see anything at all
14
Shine a light into your soul
15
City streets so freezing cold
16
City shadows mark the route,
17
when they let the rats out
18
Rats, you call it love alright
19
That was the catch, a cold suicide
20
Let me place you in my past,
21
with other precious toys
22
But if you're ever feeling low, down,
23
in the fractured sunshine,
24
I'll help you feel the noise
25
Shine down,
26
You can go on home
27
Shine down
28
Go, go
29
Rats, you're working overtime
30
You are the moon beyond your mind
31
When the rats run riot,
32
and the screen door slams
33
When the world goes quiet,
34
you'll all know where I am
35
You could be my open road,
36
you could be the reason why
37
You could ease my heavy load
38
I'm gonna freeze you up now
39
You can let it shine,
40
keep that in mind
41
When they let 'em out next time
42
You can move a little closer,
43
until you're moving all up around my shoulder
44
City shadows mark the route
45
when they let the rats out
