Bullet With Butterfly Wings Lyrics by Taking Back Sunday

Songs That Saved My Life

2018

[Verse 1]
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
Secret destroyers hold you up to the flames
And what do I get for my pain?
Betrayed desires and a piece of the game
[Pre-Chorus]
And even though I know, I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold like old Job
[Chorus 1]
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Someone will say
"What is lost can never be saved."
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
[Verse 2]
Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it for just one more show?
And what do you want? I want to change
And what have you got when you feel the same?
[Pre-Chorus]
And even though I know, I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold like old Job
[Chorus 1]
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Someone will say
"What is lost can never be saved."
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
[Bridge 1]
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was a only son, yeah
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was a only son for you
[Interlude]
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
Someone will say
"What is lost can never be saved."
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
[Chorus 2]
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a…
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a…
Despite all my rage
I am still just a rat in a cage
[Bridge 2]
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son for you
[Outro]
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
