Rat in Cat's Eye

When I saw you

You were in an alleyway

Smoking Winnies

Sipping whiskey

Like it was how you hydrate

There was a rat

Crawling up

Your right leg

You didn't bother

To shake it off

Or the fly on your head

You went the wong way

Convinced yourself

It's too late

To be saved

Well, you shrugged

Stamped me as 'dismissed'

Went back to that pit you ever

So missed

Why, why, why

The rat in the cat's eye

Why, why, why

The rat in the cat's eye

When I saw you

You were in the white bed

Half dead

With all the shit they

Pumped inside your head

Made a zombie

Out of you

So you'd comply

Stuck black crosses

Onto your

Swollen eyes

Why, why, why

The rat in the cat's eye

Why, why, why

The rat in the cat's eye

When I saw you

You were six feet deep

In a hell that

Tasted all too sweet

Could barely talk

But you let out a sigh

And I wondered

Is this the last time

That I say, 'goodbye'?
