Worm In Her Vein
Cage Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She’s in love with the dark, escapes with art
Where do you start when you can’t stop
Him from writing in your chart?
Exchange for a fist hard
She would get a gift card
In a hospital gown looking
Down for a discharge she’s so sweet
She’ll kill you in a heartbeat
Just to taste your tongue until
She starts to eat
Your head in her hands calmly
She’ll eat you probably
Be a good idea to flee from a zombie

And you know it’s all inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant
Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said
Won’t bring you back to life
When you’re this dead

And you know it’s not inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant
Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said

She’s so awkward, she’s awesome
An orchid in her hair
She stares off like there’s something there
She’s not even alive
I’m a fish she happened to hook
Worm in her vein holding my
Hand dragging her foot
Look mommy, boyfriend is a little scarier
Cause I chose to stick around
And not bury her
Needle in your arm to preserve you
Like the world deserves you
Apparently so much the worms do

And you know it’s all inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant
Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said
Won’t bring you back to life
When you’re this dead

And you know it’s not inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant
Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said

I should let you go, I already miss you
Felt your arm and held the rotting tissue
Get a feeling for your frailty
It’s alive in you
Sitting shotgun, axe murderer driving you
Ran off with a piece of me
A piece of meat that was aching
Weak, was just sitting in
My chest making beats
I know I found it wrong but
Thought I lost it right a trail of blood
My love ran off in the night

And you know it’s all inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant
Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said
Won’t bring you back to life
When you’re this dead

And you know it’s not inside your head
Can’t change your mind
A lie is what you meant




Can’t take your words back
They’ve all been said
