Alexander Crumbsnatcher - I know how it feels to be a rat Live At Subterranean

Sorry it's just a clip. the whole song didn't get recorded.

Lyrics -
There's a million things that run through my head every day
there's no way that i could ever think to say them all
and besides, i'd probably just run away
or lay in bed for another day
Just lay in bed another day.
I've got to beat this thing inside
it was taking over me
and making me say things that i would never say
and it got easier to drown it in a bottle
but it's time to get the words out
it's time to get the words out

stop, boy
hey there baby, it ain't easy
but we can't give up the fight, no we can't give up the fight
and i am not here to say that everything is perfect
but we don't have to take this
no we don't have to take this
you are not alone
there's a million people like us
there's a rat in every one of you
there's one inside of me
and they can't keep us down
we've got to learn to love each other
got to know that it's okay
baby i think there's a better way

and i know how it feels to be a rat
you find your food and make your home in the warmest place that you can find
you try to live and you just try to get along,
but there's always another trap
yeah there's always another trap
but we can sing and dance and laugh and fight and lead
and we can sneak into smaller places that they can never see
when you're a rat, you can survive anything
we've just got to stick together.
they can never keep us down
