Skinny Puppy
"Rodent"

level edge
backs against the ledge
no knives
the stone hard eyes
without the longing
or fear that it would disappear
they cling on
nuturing
never ending

obsessions on the table
lines needed
walls cover
tips the balance
don't touch me
wiped out
cornering
mouthed the word money
mouthed the word money
mouthed the word money

head shake
handshake
out to get a long way
from corrosion
pushes closer to the edge
wired not connected

peeling back
plastic wrap
tinted green
and all illusion
and all illusion
and all illusion

and all
existing

caught up crossfire
trading tall tales
where are you going
where do you fail
whats that mean
whats that mean
whats that mean

back and forth
side by side
loose knot weave
keep it up
altogether
or whatever that means

passing underneath
the trespass

dont get too close
dont get too close
mouth the word your money
mouth the word your money

if I fade I may
and I want to fade away
all that I do
is pray
that you will be there too
if this were trying
to deceive some minds
what the hell do you got to say?

under the surface lies I know the secret

altogether
altogether

the quiet minds
looking for their treats

time to stop
time to stop
time to stop

money
mouth the word money
mouth the word money
mouth the word money
