Hand me off the keys to this rusty old cage
I need to be released
Don't want to be a victim to this bitter modern age
And I need to be released
I'm pounding on this wall with a fist for a hammer
And I'll break every bone, Yeah, I'll bleed 'til it shatters
Trying to catch that mighty dollar But the damn thing's on the run
And I need to be released
Got me some bullets
But never learned to use the gun
And I need to be released
I'm pounding on this wall with a fist for a hammer
And I'll break every bone, Yeah, I'll bleed 'til it shatters
A pack of starving hounds all tethered to one chain
Dying to be found, given shelter from the rain
I'm pounding on this wall with a fist for a hammer
And I'll break every bone, Yeah, I'll bleed 'til it shatters
