Raine Maida Rat Race Lyrics

Rat Race Lyrics

One, two, picking up the pace

Three, four, rat is in the race

I'm on the land, I'm on the chase

I'm on the hunt, I've got no time to waste



One clue gotta take the bait

Burst through all the barricades

It's got teeth, it's got fangs

It's got me in the palm of its hands



I said, I want you

I said, I want you

Oh, do you know what I mean?

Oh, do you know what I mean?



My eyes are hollow

My bones beggin' for sleep

I won't make it through tomorrow

I'm useless with these wooden wings



This love, gotta break it down

Chew it up, spit it out

I don't know where it could be

I don't know how it found me



Arms wide crucified, crucifix

It's gonna fix it tonight

She said, it's coming for me

I threw away my church key



My eyes are hollow

My bones beggin' for sleep

I won't make it through tomorrow

I'm useless with these wooden wings



I'll ride away

On a cloud made out of hopeless treasure

I'll smile and wave

At his golden gates
