Rattlesnakes Lyrics - Singles - The Banner

i check my hand, it's shredded and bleeding 

from holding broken glass punching echoes in the face 

can't see you, eyes covered, not looking your ice blue eyes pierce like 

lightning through the space 

thirteen arrows tear tunnels right through me 

my fingers stuff the holes but the bleeding it persists 

check my mirror its cracking distorted 

my vision could be questioned but the visage no doubt mine 

and now i'm teasing with these rattlesnakes 

i'm kissing cobras on the head 

i roll the dice despite my past mistakes 

only the lucky end up dead 

i'll face the pain but the pain ain't mine 

i shouldn't walk this late at night 

asking for trouble when i climbed that fence 

i'm out of my mind - shes out of sight 

hey mom i'm going out tonight so put my calls on hold 

now joey no fights tonight, i'd bet shed wish i was 

hey mom i'm going out tonight so tell em' i'm not home 

now joey no trouble tonight, how does she always know.
