Rusty Cage
Chris Cornell
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—
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run
Too cold to start a fire
I'm burning diesel, burning dinosaurs' 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—
I'm 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 looking
For their bones
And it's raining ice picks
On your steel shore
I'm gonna break—
I'm gonna break my—
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run
