Songbird

Just a bird in a cage
Knowing only such small space
Wings were broken so long ago
Now they function only for show
Catch her with an open hand
Giving in to your demands
Close your eyes and think of the sky
How could she forget how to fly?

Eyes are open but I don't like what I see
When I draw breath
Exhale a part of me
Why do I feel like a child
When I need to be wild

Just a thought in a brain
Looping 'round to drive you insane
"Is the one who longs to be free
The same one that's torturing me?"
Blinding light shines down from the sky
Turning 'round she shields her eyes
Through her sadness she never saw
Locked in by an open door

Eyes are open but I don't like what I see
When I draw breath
Exhale a part of me
Why do I feel like a child?
Eyes are open but I don't like what I see
When I draw breath
Exhale a part of me
Why do I feel like a child
When I need to be wild
