Rats in the Apartment: A Melancholic Tale of Love, Loss, and Unexpected Guests
Lyrics
Good luck putting hands in my pockets
Expressing confidence or challenge in preventing others from accessing personal belongings.
Last night I cut holes in each one
Indicating a destructive or rebellious act, possibly symbolizing a break from the norm.
Nice job getting drunk in the morning
Criticizing someone for excessive drinking early in the day.
You were asleep before I woke up
Highlighting a disconnection in sleeping patterns between two individuals.
Wide eyes on the train back home
Observing alertness during a journey home, possibly implying heightened awareness.
There were ghosts all around but you didn't know
Perceiving unseen troubles or challenges around, unbeknownst to someone.
I tried to save you did the best I could
Attempting to rescue or support someone despite challenges.
It was cold out here there were big tall woods
Describing a cold environment with tall woods, setting a somber atmosphere.
I'm scared there's rats in the apartment
Expressing fear of problems (rats) in the living space.
Usually I think they're cute but not right now
Contrasting the usual perception of rats as cute with the current negative view.
Oh fuck they're eating your body
Using vivid language to describe a disturbing scenario involving the consumption of a body.
I'm so sorry but you must taste good
Apologizing for a situation where someone's taste attracts negative attention.
Sleepy eyes on the ride to work
Depicting fatigue or weariness during the commute to work.
I miss you so but now you're food for worms
Expressing longing for someone now deceased and acknowledging the natural process of decay.
I tried to help I said the most I could
Reflecting on efforts made to assist or communicate with someone.
It was cold out here like you knew it would be
Reiterating the coldness of the environment, suggesting an anticipated harsh reality.
Like you knew it would be
Emphasizing the expected nature of a challenging situation.
Like you knew it would be
Repetition for emphasis on the foreseen difficulty.
Knew it would be
Further emphasis on the anticipation of challenges.
I'm hot on a trail of your old photographs
Expressing active pursuit of memories through old photographs.
I don't know where they're taking me now
Uncertainty about the destination of the memories and the emotional journey they might lead to.
I just hope that it's somewhere that smells like you
Desiring a destination reminiscent of a loved one's scent.
I just wanna see somebody smile
Expressing a simple wish to witness joy in someone's face.
I just wanted to see
Reiterating the desire to see someone happy.
I just wanted to see somebody smile
Restating the longing for the happiness of another person.
