[intro]
Timid dog
Flashlights cutting through the fog
Shaking sick
This Mange is thick
Got no home
Got no place to call my own
Ooo yeah just a mongrel on the prowl
[Verse]
Pavement's cracked it whispers back
Every step like a heart attack
Eyes like moons they glow and fade
Underneath the bridge I made my trade
[Chorus]
Stray in the smoke stray in the haze
Running through the city's maze
Every corner hides a ghost
But the shadows love me the most
I ain’t your pet ain’t your friend
Won’t be by your side at the end
[Verse 2]
Rain tastes like metal dreams
Neon rivers split at the seams
Trash can thrones a kingless reign
Hunger bites but it keeps me sane
[Prechorus]
I don't beg I don't plead
The night gives me what I need
[Chorus]
Stray in the smoke stray in the haze
Running through the city's maze
Every corner hides a ghost
But the shadows love me the most
I ain’t your pet ain’t your friend
Won’t be by your side at the end
[Bridge]
Skyscrapers hum their electric prayers
Broken bottles catch the starlight's glare
I hear a song in the siren's scream
It's all too real it's all a dream
[Outro]
Barking loud Barking back
I ain’t one of your pack
Barking loud barking back
Ready to attack
Cause I’m barking loud
And I’m barking back
Rrrrrr! Gnashing fangs
Stray dog gangs
Biting back with gnashing fangs
