lyrics

The roach and the rat,
They are best friends.
They crawled into my house,
Their behavior depends
On the way that I watch the clock,
Watch the shadows scale my wall,
On the way that I cling to the ceiling,
And fall into the hall.
Please don’t let me ever go ­-
Any time’s too soon.
Please don’t make me sleep
In my messy room...­
I get caught in the small
Corners of this place.
The dust on the wall,
The big picture erased.
My head reduced to the function
of a trigger on a windex gun.
My head spins in ev’ry direction - ­
Going crazy’s fun.
Get out! Let’s make my life
A movie scene.
When I act, it doesn’t hurt - ­
It’s on the screen.
