Iron Cage

There's a chain I cannot see
But it's long enough for me
There's a shadow falling down
Over every house in town

You can't escape it, but it can't be touched
It will stop you dead when you feel too much

Always there before you start
Little lock on every heart
Though you try and find that key
It defies you constantly

You're a prisoner of your own accord
In a trap that's made by the weak and bored

So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage

Every day is like before
You fight, you fail, you snore
But at night, the moon illumes
On a hundred million tombs

I remember once when the door was wide
Couldn't move my legs, though I tried and tried

Always there right before you start
Little lock on every heart
Though you try and find that key
It defies you constantly

You're a prisoner of your own accord
In a trap that's made by the weak and bored

And so I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage

There's a chain I cannot see
But it's long enough for me
There's a shadow falling down
Over every house in town

You can't escape it, but it can't be touched
It will stop you dead when you feel too much

Every day is like before
You fight, you fail, you snore
But at night, the moon illumes
On a hundred million tombs

I remember once when the door was wide
Couldn't move my legs, though I tried and tried

And so I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage, iron cage
So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage
