The world is a vampire

Sent to drain

Secret destroyers

Hold you up to the flames

And what do I get

For my pain?

Betrayed desires

And a piece of the game

Even though I know

I suppose I'll show

All my cool and cold

Like old Job

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Then someone will say, "What is lost can never be saved"

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

♪ ♪ ♪

Now I'm naked

Nothing but an animal

But can you fake it

For just one more show?

And what do you want?

I want to change

And what have you got

When you feel the same?

Even though I know

I suppose I'll show

All my cool and cold

Like old Job

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Then someone will say, "What is lost can never be saved"

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Tell me I'm the only one

Tell me there's no other one

Jesus was an only son

Tell me I'm the chosen one

Jesus was an only son for you

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
