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,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.
I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.

Too cold to start a fire,
I’m burning diesel, burning dinosaur 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,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.
I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
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 lookin’ for their bones,
And it’s rainin’ icepicks on your steel shore,

I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
I’m gonna break my rusty cage and run.
I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.

I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.
I’m gonna break,
I’m gonna break my,
Gonna break my rusty cage and run.
