Lyrics for Riot In My House

There's a riot in my house Chaos is blossoming Run and hide little mouse Go on and get yourself together When burn outs by the score Strung out in metal cages See technicolor pour From every laceration I realize that i'm slowly coming down with you Angels fill my room With what i've scant belief in When death's metal broom Comes sweeping through the evening Get up off the floor There's hot smoking radiation From window to the door In ultra violent hesitation I realize that i'm slowly coming down with you Battle lines appear Within the broken mirrors Yet the dogs have no fear Fighting in the dark grey shadows Hear the coughing sound Mama bring my medication No harmony is found While performing levitation I realize that i'm slowly coming down with you There's a riot in my house Chaos is blossoming Run and hide little mouse Go on and get yourself together From window to the door There's cold choking strangulation See technicolor pour From every amputation And realize that I'm slowly coming down with you Oh yeah There's a riot in my house Go on and get yourself together Go on and get yourself together, yeah There's a riot in my house Go on and get yourself together Oh yeah Go on and get yourself together
