lyrics

Hey stranger, what's your name?
It's really nice to meet you, see you again
Hey lover, what's your game?
Might I say your angle is mighty insane

I'm stuck inside all the time in my mind
A penny for my thoughts
Sick and tired of this life
Even more exciting when you're out of sorts

The cat has got your tongue now
Its claws so deep inside
Letting blood fill your mouth
You can't say you ever tried

So darling, tell me true
Tell me of the privilege of being you
At least the stranger I met before
Doesn't see seeing me as a chore

You're stuck inside all the time in your mind
The penny never drops
You're sick and tired of this life
Patiently waiting for the moment it stops

The cat has got your tongue now
Its claws so deep inside
Letting blood fill your mouth
You can't say you ever tried

No, you can't say that you were alone
When I tried a hundred times to see you at home
No, you can't say that I didn't care
I've been here from the start so don't you dare

I'm stuck inside in this vice, so enticed
Playing the role of friend
But you and I think alike
Patiently waiting for the moment this ends

The cat has got your tongue now
Its claws so deep inside
Letting blood fill your mouth
You can't say you ever tried
