lyrics
You believe yourself trapped
Wrestling with a cage
Pulling at the bars with all your might
But open your eyes
You’ll probably find
You’re struggling in vain
From on the outside.
Like a bird with broken wings
Unwilling to sing
You're trapped in a world you didn't make
In love with the very thing you hate
Stumbling in the darkness on the ground
This time you open your eyes
To find yourself blind
And wonder how the years could cast you down
You believe your life spent
Why remember it?
When all it could yield is more despair?
A little hope, a little faith,
But surely that's not all it takes
To live a life skilled in dodging the snare
Like a bird with broken wings
Unwilling to sing
You're trapped in a world you didn't make
In love with the very thing you hate
Stumbling in the darkness on the ground
This time you open your eyes
To find yourself blind
And wonder how the years could cast you down
But love will mend your wings
Love will heal all things
And the hope you have is not in vain, it's not in vain
