cage Lyrics

Always keeping secrets, can never talk too loud

Pretend to agree and keep your head down

Nothing is ever enough in this place

Always on the edge cause it's not safe

Counting the days, twenty thousand ways

To force a fake smile on my face

Threaten me to keep me silent

Lock it up to keep it violent

Release the monster

To attack me

And then go on to laugh

As it tortures me

Your words flushing mine out

Are my thoughts too loud to bare

It's like I never made a sound

Like I'm not even there

Counting all my scars like I'm counting my trophies

Each mark on my heart tells a different story

Writing every detail so neat and perfectly

Just for you to cross it out, my happy ending

Counting the days, twenty thousand ways

To force a fake smile on my face

Threaten me to keep me silent

Lock it up to keep it violent

Release the monster

To attack me

And then go on to laugh

As it tortures me

Your words flushing mine out

Are my thoughts too loud to bare

It's like I never made a sound

Like I'm not even there

Once upon a time

In a land of fairy tales

I could be free

I could fly high from my misery

Kneel down to pray to the gods

That I don't believe in

But dear God

Please save me

From the monster

Released to attack me

So no one can laugh as

As it tortures me

Your words flushing mine out

Are my thoughts too loud to bare

It's like I never made a sound

Like I'm not even there
