No More Rats
      No more rats scratching anymore,
        left behind

      No more rats scratching anymore,
        -I'm fine

      No more rats scratching anymore,
        left behind

      No more rats scratching anymore
      at the back of my mind

      I'm-
      Lost to you
      Empty gaze where you should be
      Lost without you-
      You find ways to lose me.

      You're more machine than me now
      You will your eyes into one-way mirrors
      but I know what's in there,
      in your reflective gaze
      You had the biggest brown eyes, but now-
      I can't see in
      But you can't see out
      I can't see in
      But you can't see out
      but you still can't see yourself without
      Rats- scratching at the back of my mind
      Scraping away the time
      Rats- scratching you away from me

      Your eyes will never reflect me.

        What did I expect,
        from all these Rats?
