Roach Motel Lyrics by The Vernes

Yr of the Rat

2019

[Verse 1]
There are days
No one remembers your name
And that hole in your head won't go away
Just stay
Comes and goes
Floats through an open window
[Pre-Chorus]
And maybe when I’m older I disappear
Lace-up both my shoes and walk out of here
[Chorus]
So welcome to hell
You have slept too many nights in the roach motel
And maybe it's a choice
'Cause I’ve been losing for so long
I can't feel my head
Maybe when I'm older I catch my breath
Sweep it right then under that rug you left
When you went away
[Bridge]
There are days
Don't they all feel the same to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe when I'm older I disappear
Lace-up both my shoes and walk out of here
[Chorus]
Welcome to hell
You have slept too many nights in the roach motel
And maybe it's a choice
'Cause I've been losing for so long
I can’t feel my head
Maybe when I’m older I catch my breath
Sweep it right then under that rug you left
When you went away
[Outro]
I've been losing for so long
I can’t feel my head
Maybe when I'm older I catch my breath
Sweep it right then under that rug you left
When you went away
