gutterrats

~Verse One~

“We’re all living the American lifestyle
we’re all just gutter rats
all consuming without a care
we are all whores
and that is that

~bridge
“But – the – end isn’t all there has – to be……..
all i ask is that you follow my lead
like the rats we are
so consumed with our scars

~Chorus~

“Life mapped out like – a – maze
life in hectic, cryptic haze
left to die here in the daze
floating down those gutter waves
as rats we drown

~Verse two~

“Down it comes the muck and the (grunge)
falling from those up above
aren’t we something more than blood?
are we not bonded by our love?

“Even as we seem to disappear
fall into this mob mentality nightmare
subduing the dreams genuine and sincere
rats we are as rats we function

~Chorus~ (vary slight.)
“Life mapped out like – a – cage
life in helpless, impotent rage
left die down here in the wake
like some indentured slaves
we’re all going down

~Verse Three~

“A part we breathe
a part we seethe
part of the wage slave elite
are we not all one and the same?

“Might as well settle back into my niche
like all the rest i’ll be the bitch
like the rats as humans we have become
we are in this rat race all as one

~Chorus~ (vary slight.) 2-3 times…..
“Life mapped out like – a – maze
life in hectic, cryptic haste
left to writhe here in this state
broken now by the gutter waves
…”Hear the gurgle (ing) sound
as we go fur (ther) down”
