Rats Songtext
von The Black Heart Procession

I can′t sleep tonight
The Devil's in the moon
So I walk the city streets
I take big steps to get nowhere
I look at the lights
There′s nothing here for me
I can't see the stars in the sky
The buildings reach too high

I can't sleep tonight
And I can′t stay alive


I see the pimps, I see the whores
I see the thieves outside your door
I look down the alley where I left my life
I′ve seen rats in the sewer at night
She said "If I leave, I won't come back"
She said "If I leave, I won′t come back"

I can't sleep tonight
And I can′t stay alive
I can't sleep tonight
And I can′t stay alive

I can't stay alive
The Devil's making room
I walk from the alley where I lost my life
I see rats with blood in their eyes
I said "If you leave, don′t come back"
I said "If you leave, don′t ever come back"

I can't sleep tonight
And I can′t stay alive
I can't sleep tonight
And I can′t stay alive
