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

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

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

and i still believe that i cannot be saved
