Flotsam & Jetsam - Rats In The Temple Lyrics

Flotsam & Jetsam Lyrics

"Rats In The Temple"

Falling, so far down I may never get up
Dreaming, underground
Shifting, blaming the other side back on you
Leaving, there's no sound
This war inside my head, where brown and green is red

Rats in the temple, turned sacred profane
They run in the darkness, inside my brain
Feeding the thoughts, move in for the kill
Rats in the temple, breaking my will
Rats in the temple

Trusting, no one, wrong side, inner voice
Story, watch it bend
Anger, eating me from the inside out
Hiding, from the rain
This war inside my head, all that I see is red

Rats in the temple, turned sacred profane
They run in the darkness inside my brain
Feeding the thoughts, move in for the kill
Rats in the temple, breaking my will
(Breaking my will)
Rats in the temple

Falling, so far down I may never get up
Dreaming, underground
Shifting, blaming the other side back on you
Bleeding, from the sound
This war inside my head, where brown and green is red

Rats in the temple, turned sacred profane
They run in the darkness inside my brain
Feeding the thoughts, move in for the kill
Rats in the temple, breaking my will

Rats in the temple, turned sacred profane
They run in the darkness inside my brain
Feeding the thoughts, move in for the kill
Rats in the temple, breaking my will
(Breaking my will)
Rats in the temple
Rats in the temple
