Bars of steel stand erected
Before me as I'm resurrected,
Into a life I cannot choose,
Killing me, and I can't refuse.
Locking me up, safe and sound,
My feet are planted on the ground,
But I cannot just fly away,
Because this sparrow is here to stay
And I scream... tears are flowing through my veins.
I can't dream... while I'm bound here in these chains.
Set me free... I don't belong here now, and I never will.
This cage is meant to kill.
It's killing me... more than you can understand,
I can't see... while my life is in your hands,
I want to breathe... but I don't know if I ever will.
This cage is meant to kill.
I face a cruel crucifixion,
Hoping this is all just fiction.
My eyes were opened up for me,
But through his torture I can't see.
My arms outstretched for happiness,
Someone save me from this mess!
You've trapped me here, I'm all alone,
You've trapped an angel, made a drone.
And I scream... tears are flowing through my veins.
I can't dream... while I'm bound here in these chains.
Set me free... I don't belong here now, and I never will.
This cage is meant to kill.
It's killing me... more than you can understand,
I can't see... while my life is in your hands,
I want to breathe... but I don't know if I ever will.
This cage is meant to kill.
Though I scream through tears and pain,
Please do not forget my name
When you watch me die... oh, if you're willing,
In this cage you built for killing.
