Caged Heart


Trapped in the night 

 

Can't see a sight 

 

Far away from light 

 

Strings around so tight 

 

Every wrong not right 

 

The fire ashes bite 

 

Used to be so bright 

 

All that's left is fright 

 

Colours of black and white 

 

Lost its appetite 

 

Down-fell every fight 

 

The Caged Heart 

Still hasn't found its way 

To escape the midnight
