about

Rat’s current girlfriend Charli is sick of hearing about all his old haunts – and wants to set the record straight as to who the bastard’s heart belongs to.

lyrics

I'm the one who's been here all this time
They've got the glory but some glory should be mine
They've got ringing they should hear the shit that's in my head
All these ghosts just won't stay dead

When the history of this is read
I'm the one who understood him best
Could have plenty but he's mine instead
They're far away but always here
Dead monuments that he holds dear

The ghosts
The ghosts
They follow us
Throughout the scene
And you don't understand
He's nobody's nothing

When the hat comes off and glasses too
I see the things that no one knows I do
All the kindness and the coldness too
And all the ghosts who couldn't cope
You haunt our walls, but I have spoken

When the hat comes off and glasses too
I see the things that no one knows I do
Girls who paint and girls with frozen hearts
Kick them to the curb but it is just a start
Cause I'm the one who's picking up the line
I'm the one who's been here all this time
They got the glory but the glory should be mine
They got the glory, but the bastard he is mine!!
They got the glory but the bastard he is mine!!
He is Mine!!
He is Mine!!!
He is Mine!!!
