Rat Face

from Wicked Shimmy by Voodoo Kid

/

lyrics

Eyes red as the sun that's beating down on my skin
My week's worth of ramen is running thin
I wanna get away from the places that I've been
You ask me what I'm thinking but you're never going to listen to me

You don't know me but I'm watching you
Well I take what I want and its easy to see
That I get what I want so just take it from me
And let go

I can't get through to you

I'm wide awake and I can't forget your face
I tripping on my laces in the new rat race
My heart is like a drum and I can't control the pace
It's more than I can take

It's so hard to sleep in the beds you've made
And I'm always inches from the blade
So don't be afraid it won't hurt a bit
But honestly, hon, I don't give a shit

Cause I ain't slept in weeks its killing me
So I take what I want and it's easy to see
That I get what I want wont you take it from me
And let's go

What did I do to you

I'm wide awake and I can't forget your face
I tripping on my laces in the new rat race
My heart is like a drum and I can't control the pace
It's more than I can take
I'm wide awake and I can't forget the taste
I'm choking on my braces and I can't keep face
My head is going numb and I'm drowning out of place
It's more than I can take

I'm wide awake and I can't forget the taste
I'm choking on my braces and I can't keep face
My head is going numb and I'm a basket case
It's more than I can take

I'm wide awake and I can't forget your face
I tripping on my laces in the new rat race
My heart is like a drum and I can't control the pace
It's more than I can take
I'm wide awake and I can't forget the taste
I'm choking on my braces and I can't keep face
My head is going numb and I'm drowning out of place
It's more than I can take
