lyrics

I spend my days walking around in a little cage
And in a way, it kind of contains me when within it I stay
And I don’t know if I ever leave it if I will feel safe
It’s my cage, it’s my cage and I’m not going to give it away
It’s my cage, it’s my cage and it’s the way I need things to stay

And when I’m low and yes, I’ve had my times, I paint the cage blue
And though it’s a new color for me, I feel free, though it might not be new to you
It’s my cage, it’s my cage, it holds me in, this place that I go
It’s my cage, it’s my cage and it’s moving real slow
It’s my cage when I fear change, but that’s the only way things are going to go

And when I want to wish it away, it keeps calling me and I get scared, you know
It’s my cage, and as I rearrange, it’s the first thing that’s going to go
These bars only dull your blades, as they’re replayed they’re stealing your show
It’s my cage and when it goes away, I’m going to grow
It’s my cage, it’s my cage, I’m going to give it away
It’s my cage, it’s my cage, I’m going to give it away
