A Cage Made of Tin (Live)
Be wary of me
I tend to sadden all I see
If depression is an illness
Then I am the disease
I will stick in your thoughts
Like a friend you have lost
And cling to your heart
Unaware of the costs
Though I try to help
Get your problems to melt
My voice destroys
Any love you have felt
What I'm trying to say
Is please go away
I'm sorry my brain
Always gets in the way
So I sing to protect
Myself from regret
I'll make my move
After this sinking sun sets
Being so removed
Has suddenly proved
I can see my own body
And the parts that I move
As I flail in the air
There appears now a stare
From a million blue eyes
That finally care.
Where have they been
In a cage made of tin
An empty cavern
With no heart to win
They pierce through my brain
Like a bolt in the rain
I'll do anything
If I don't have to strain
No I haven't been yet
It's nice I bet
We can go anywhere
This sinking sun sets
I've known you for years
We've shared in our fears
Oh, what should we do
As true life nears
Something tells me this
It won't be bliss
We'll sit on the concrete
Chat and remiss
Two days for grief
One more then relief
This cold that I feel
Is beyond belief
My conscience is greater
So I would never hate her
It's too bad you can't
Put off life until later
So I sing to protect
Myself from regret
I'll make my move
After this sinking sun sets
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
The sky is getting dark
And there's no one around
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
The sky is getting dark
And there's no one around
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
Was it you or me that killed
This love that we found
I tend to sadden all I see
If depression is an illness
Then I am the disease
I will stick in your thoughts
Like a friend you have lost
And cling to your heart
Unaware of the costs
Though I try to help
Get your problems to melt
My voice destroys
Any love you have felt
What I'm trying to say
Is please go away
I'm sorry my brain
Always gets in the way
So I sing to protect
Myself from regret
I'll make my move
After this sinking sun sets
Being so removed
Has suddenly proved
I can see my own body
And the parts that I move
As I flail in the air
There appears now a stare
From a million blue eyes
That finally care.
Where have they been
In a cage made of tin
An empty cavern
With no heart to win
They pierce through my brain
Like a bolt in the rain
I'll do anything
If I don't have to strain
No I haven't been yet
It's nice I bet
We can go anywhere
This sinking sun sets
I've known you for years
We've shared in our fears
Oh, what should we do
As true life nears
Something tells me this
It won't be bliss

So I sing to protect
Myself from regret
I'll make my move
After this sinking sun sets
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
The sky is getting dark
And there's no one around
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
The sky is getting dark
And there's no one around
The sun is sinking down
The sun is sinking down
Was it you or me that killed
This love that we found
