Mr.Kitty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Contemplate suicide
Every day is a lie
Should I live or should I die
The rats inside destroy my mind
Number the days to bide my time
The rats inside destroy my mind
Broken down, left to rot
I'm alone and they forgot
They want to hurt, I want to heal
Is this a dream or is it real
The rats inside destroy my mind
Number the days to bide my time
The rats inside destroy my mind
Endure the pain, I'll give you mine

on Serenity
I saw a man and I thought he had my face I heard a preacher and I thought he had my voice
Up on a train since the moment I opened my eyes sometimes I'm sure I've seen this place again but deep in my Heart there's some courage and some hope and certainty that these rails will never end
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore
Well here I stand in the center of the scene with all the lights pointing right in my head
But in the dark there's a man that can't be seen holding a gun with all the power of his hand
The show is over and the applause pricks my ear the hall is empty and the man is getting bigger
He closes his eyes but serenity is gone he laughs at me and at once he pulls the trigger
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore
Now as I lay dead upon the floor I know my name will never be forgotten
I see that train getting lost inside the smoke and my body being fresh instead of rotten
Feels that I'm growing but this world is getting small
I cannot take it anymore
