Bullet with Butterfly Wings
Rat in a Cage: Unveiling the Struggle Within
Lyrics
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
The world is likened to a vampire, draining energy or life force.
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
There are secret forces that aim to destroy, subjecting individuals to hardships.
And what do I get, for my pain?
Questioning the reward for enduring pain and suffering.
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
Experiencing betrayal of desires and being a pawn in a larger scheme.
Even though I know--I suppose I'll show
Despite knowing, there is a willingness to reveal vulnerability.
All my cool and cold-like old job
Expressing a demeanor of detachment and indifference like an old job.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite intense emotions, feeling trapped and powerless.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Repetition emphasizes the feeling of being confined despite internal struggles.
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Highlighting the belief that certain losses are irreversible.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Reiteration of feeling like a helpless creature despite internal turmoil.
Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
Feeling exposed and vulnerable, reduced to a primal state.
But can you fake it, for just one more show?
Questioning the authenticity of one's behavior for public consumption.
And what do you want? I want to change
Expressing a desire for personal change.
And what have you got?
Possibly reflecting on what is gained in the pursuit of change.
When you feel the same
Seeking understanding when emotions are shared.
Even though I know--I suppose I'll show
Reiteration of revealing vulnerability despite awareness.
All my cool and cold-like old job
Reiterating detachment and indifference as in an old job.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite internal struggles, the feeling of being confined persists.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Repetition underscores the sense of powerlessness despite inner turmoil.
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Emphasizing the belief that certain losses are beyond recovery.
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite emotional turmoil, the feeling of being trapped endures.
Tell me I'm the only one, tell me there's no other one
Seeking reassurance of uniqueness and importance.

Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved

Despite internal battles, the feeling of helplessness remains.
Tell me I'm the only one, tell me there's no other one
