hey, nothing - the rats in the attic // hey, nothing (original)

this songs called 'the rats in the attic'. it's about a girl who wants to escape her family because they are her worst influence.

[kelsonmacdonald]

It just feels so much more real and genuine than anything else out there. It’s incredible

[tmcleod]

Wow what an incredible artist. Why am I crying? Keep feeling and creating.

[adamdunford]

Hard to come by something that makes you stop and appreciate what you're hearing now a days, this hits in places some will never understand

[michaeltropf]

This is truly a gem. It strikes deep and the emotion you put into singing these lyrics resonates deep within. I’d love to see this released mainstream some day

For anyone who wants to sing along like me :)
LYRICS:

Your mother bought you alcohol before you were of age
And now your grades are slipping but its just another page
And honestly its realistic turning out this way
A detailed form of insecure that never feels the same

Cigarettes at 16 yrs but you dont like the taste
Swallowed down a few more beers to follow your fathers pace
You wanna go to college but youll never graduate
Two more years to face your fears and wipe those tears away
So

You crashed his car
Slept at the park
Walked to my house in the dark
Stayed the night
Slept alright
Held my hand til you felt fine

Youre never gonna feel alright
And youre never gonna sleep as tight
Cause youre only just a kid
Youre only just a kid

Your mother broke down crying in your bedroom the other day
She said she missed all the things that she never hear you say
She tore up all the photographs and washed them down the drain
She said that she wanted you to move so far away
So you crashed the car
Slept at the park
Walked to my house in the dark
And you stayed the night
Slept alright
And you held my hand and felt fine

But youll never feel alright
And youll never sleep as tight
Cause youre only just a kid
Yeah youre only just a kid
yeah youre ONLY just a kid
Yeah youre ONLY just a kid…
