"The Rat Who Barked" lyrics

Wishing I'm in the dark again
How do I tell where I've been?
When I'm not on cloud nine
I'm out her fucking face, man
I wish I was a real man
I don't know where I have ran
Away from her
Away from them
I wish, I wish, I-I-I

When I'm away
Away from her
I hope she shines her light on me
Oh, I need her
She bleeds for me
Oh, please God
Tell me

She won't heed the warning I gave to her
Still, when I leave she cries, "Why won't you help me"
The longer I stay, the more I give her
Still, when I leave she cries blood from her lies

Wishing I'm in the light again
How come I don't see an end
When I feel so benign
I'm always out of time, man
Shredding her skin to make my shrine
I've never been one of a kind
Running towards her
Away from me
I wish, I wish, I-I-I

When I'm away
Away from her
I hope she shines her light on me
Oh, I need her
She bleeds for me
Oh, please God
Tell me

She won't heed the warning I gave to her
Still, when I leave she cries, "Why won't you help me"
The longer I stay, the more I give her
Still, when I leave she cries blood from her lies

She won't listen (She won't listen)
She won't listen (She won't listen)
She won't listen (She won't listen)
She won't listen, I'll make her listen

Still when I leave she cries, "Why won't you help me"
The longer I stay, the more I give her
Still when I leave she cries blood from her lies
