Like a bird in a cage
I’d forgotten how to sing
I was lost in a rage
I was nearly broken
Hey
Yeah, hey-hey
Like a bird in a cage
I’d forgotten how to sing
All alone on the stage
Drinking holy water
I pray
Eh
Hey
Yeah, hey-hey
I was too loaded
Forever devoted
I’m taking it out on myself
I was delighted
The dearly departed
Was always so happy to fall
Into your arms
Into your arms
Like a bird in a cage
I’d forgotten how to sing
Now we’re turning the page
On a brand new story, yeah
You can’t hold me back, don’t get me wrong
There’s nothing left here for me now
Hey
I was too loaded
Forever devoted
I’m taking it out on myself
I was delighted
The dearly departed
Was always so happy to fall
Into your arms
Into your arms
Like a bird in a cage
I’d forgotten how to sing
Like a bird in a cage
