Fish In A Birdcage Lyrics

"Rule #21 - Momento Mori"

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Fillin' up my coffee cup
One way to shake me up
I never wanted to sleep

Oh I won't forget
Memento Mori leaves a debt
You haven't paid it yet
I never wanted to sleep

My brain was cynical
Inside this massive hole
And then it swallowed me
I never wanted to sleep

My suit stayed the same
Can't remember my own name
Inside a timeless cage
I never wanted to sleep

A muzzled hound
I'm tied and bound
A wild beast crying for release
I want my mouth
So I may howl
And share with silence of the trees

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Fillin' up my coffee cup
One way to shake me up
I never wanted to sleep

My bones became a drip
Now that I've had my sip
After a little taste
I never wanted to sleep

Like a muzzled hound
I'm tied and bound
A wild beast crying for release
I want my mouth
So I may howl
And share with silence of the trees

I never wanted to sleep
I never wanted-
