[Verse 1]
Like a rat in a cage
I'm easily satisfied, you know
So easily satisfied
Give nothing away
Nothing taken anymore
Until I've got, I've got what you desire

You're a voice in the strange
Hollow void I can't ignore
It moves me around, it keeps me occupied
You're not in focus anymore
I follow you but only in my mind

[Chorus]
Hoping I can get at you
Believing that I won't
I know there's nothing left
That I jump before the gun

[Verse 2]
Like a rat in a cage
I'm easily terrified, you know
So easily terrified
I'm running afraid
From the doors that you adore
My aching soul's a given
I'm so tired

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh I'm the veil that you ignore
That grabs at straws
At the ones it's being denied

[Chorus]
Hoping I can get at you
Believing that I won't
I know there's nothing left
That I've jumped before the gun

Hoping I can get at you
Believing that I won't
I know there's nothing there
That I jump before the gun

[Bridge]
Waiting, I'm lost
I'm only wandering
Waiting, I'm lost
I'm only stumbling

Waiting, I'm lost
I'm only wandering
Waiting, I'm lost
I'm only stumbling

[Chorus]
Hoping I can get at you
Believing that I won't
I know there's something left
I jump before the gun

Hoping I can get at you
Believing that I won't
I know there's something left
I jump before the gun

[Outro]
I guess I take, a fool in a crown
A fool that needs me more than I realize
A patient soul, it deals me the shit
The shit I throw and hope that some of it will stick

I guess I take, a fool in a crown
A fool that needs me more than I realize
A patient soul, it deals me the shit
That makes me cry
That holds me back from the sky
