Rusty Cage Songtext / Lyric

You wired me awake

And hit me with a hand of broken nails

You tied my lead and pulled my chain

To watch my blood begin to boil



But I'm gonna break—

I'm gonna break my—

I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run



Too cold to start a fire

I'm burning diesel, burning dinosaurs' bones

I'll take the river down to still water

And ride a pack of dogs






I'm gonna break—

I'm gonna break my—

I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run



When the forest burns along the road

Like God's eyes in my headlights

When the dogs are looking

For their bones

And it's raining ice picks

On your steel shore



I'm gonna break—

I'm gonna break my—

I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run
