There's a chain I cannot see
But it's long enough for me
There's a shadow falling down
Over every house in town
You can't escape it, but it can't be touched
It will stop you dead when you feel too much
Always there before you start
A little lock on every heart
Though you try and find the key
It defies you constantly
You're a prisoner of your own accord
In a trap that's made by the weak and bored
So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage
Every day is like before
You fight, you fail, you snore
But at night the moon illumes
On a hundred million tombs
I remember once when the door was wide
Couldn't move my legs, though I tried and tried and
Always there before you start
A little lock on every heart
Though you try and find the key
It defies you constantly
You're a prisoner of your own accord
In a trap that's made by the weak and bored
So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage
There's a chain I cannot see
But it's long enough for me
There's a shadow falling down
Over every house in town
You can't escape it, but it can't be touched
It will stop you dead when you feel too much
Every day is like before
You fight, you fail, you snore
But at night the moon illumes
On a hundred million tombs
I remember once when the door was wide
Couldn't move my legs, though I tried and tried and
So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage
So I silently rage
In my iron cage
Back at the animal stage
In my iron cage
