A Cage Made of Tin (Live) Lyrics

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
