On My Way to the Cage

On my way to the cage - I'm getting taught a lesson
On my way to the cage - I'm choking on the medicine
On my way to the cage - I'm stepping hard on four-leaf clovers
On my way to the cage - I'm learning the same thing over and over

On my way to the cage - The taste of blood is in my mouth
On my way to the cage - My fear is in their eyes
On my way to the cage - My animal blood is pure
On my way to the cage - No regrets and no last words

On my way to the cage
I heard the crowd roar
Thoughts of you were long behind me
I couldn't ask for more
The lights are almost blinding
Come closer, see yourself in my eyes
And fear me, and fear me

Your soul is on a leash
Your mind is on a string
Your world's inside my fist
You put yourself above me
But there's something that you've missed
You always say you hate me
But you'll watch me anyway
It's a pain you can't resist

On my way to the cage - I'm larger than life and laughing at death
On my way to the cage - I'm tripping on pain and feeling fine
On my way to the cage - You're paying your price and I'm paying mine
On my way to the cage - I'm watching you cry and wave goodbye

On my way to the cage
I heard the crowd roar
Thoughts of you were long behind me
I couldn't ask for more
The lights are almost blinding
Come closer, see yourself in my eyes
And fear me, and fear me

Your soul is on a leash
Your mind is on a string
Your world's inside my fist
You put yourself above me
There's something that you've missed
You'll always say you hate me
But you'll watch me anyway
You can't resist
