I watch a grown rat crawl back
Out in the rain
Feed on the trash of a past failed
Dinner I made
Watch the rain lift
Replaced with immediate shame
Every sewer stewing hot summer
Mud down a drain
Ooooh
Why am I trying to get back to you?
Ooooh
It’s why I can’t stay mad at you
Ooooh
Even the odds and I’d come back to even the score
Living paycheck to paycheck but not anymore
And there’s no better place to put a foot at the door
Cut me to pieces and I’d be asking for more
Why am I trying to get back to you?
Ooooh
It’s why I’m still so mad at you
Ooooh
