Pretty bird in a cage


Pretty bird in a cage trapped inside yourself escape your imprisonment. For you're overwhelmed by something larger than you, larger than life. You cry at night dreaming of freedom — your great rendezvous into a far away place. Nightmares of your fate hunting you throughout the eternal day. Break away. Spread your wings. Free yourself. Oh caged bird, sing.
