lyrics

There's no way out of here
But not for lack of trying
You've got me wrapped around your finger twice
And I keep crying out-

-Side is better than here
No where is better than here
Bent & broken's better than here
And I keep crying out that

This cage
Isn't big enough
For the both of us
And this rust
Is eating up the scraps of what's left of us
The rest is dust

(what time is it?)
It's feeding time again
Without a need for reason
You're back behind me with a needle & a seedy grin
Come on now, stick it in
See where it gets us
I'll take the bullet, take the bullet if it gets me out-

-Side is better than here
No where is better than here
Bent & broken's better than here
And I keep crying out-
-Side is better than here
No where is better than here
Bent & broken's better than here
And I keep crying out that

This cage
Isn't big enough
For the both of us
And this rust
Is eating up the scraps of what's left of us
The rest is dust

Outside is better than here
No where is better than here
Bent & broken's better than here
And I keep crying out-
-Side is better than here
No where is better than here
Bent & broken's better than here
And I keep crying out
