Life as a Rat
Been preferring alleys to roads
Only talking to people that I don't know
It feels good to be a stranger again
To walk through the darkness
To hide from my friends
To look in on all your happy homes
Like some starving rat bit with musical notes
A postcard from the gutter, I'm sure
But I'm not the man that you see anymore
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
And I wander these streets 'til I'm lost
Got a room full of actors and no one will talk
I've been living off the things that you said
Been spending my nights just to bring out the dead
And then showing up when you think that I won't
To lead you on outside and into my coat
To quiet the waters within
Curling up in some storefront just to hold you again
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
Only talking to people that I don't know
It feels good to be a stranger again
To walk through the darkness
To hide from my friends
To look in on all your happy homes
Like some starving rat bit with musical notes
A postcard from the gutter, I'm sure
But I'm not the man that you see anymore
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
And I wander these streets 'til I'm lost
Got a room full of actors and no one will talk
I've been living off the things that you said
Been spending my nights just to bring out the dead
And then showing up when you think that I won't
To lead you on outside and into my coat
To quiet the waters within
Curling up in some storefront just to hold you again
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
It's been hard to wake up from this life of mine
To heal myself a day at a time
And if tomorrow comes and you're here by my side
Then my only wish made it through the night
