Covered As: Bullet With Butterfly Wings by Hawthorne Heights
Bullet With Butterfly Wings by Skinlab
Parodied As: The Alternative Polka by "Weird Al" Yankovic
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
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
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
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was the only son
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was the only son for you
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness

One of the most memorable rock songs of the whole alternative era, or any rock for that matter, and for good reason. This song is amazing

just now listening to the acoustic version and if i must say so, i prefer the orginal over this one... don't get me wrong, i like how the song is stripped down, but the angsty and edgy vocals makes this song...
