Trapped like a bird in a cage
Never to be freed
Twenty years have past and I've bottled up all my rage
No visitors and nothing to do so I watch as I make myself bleed
Just one friend is all I need
Its so dark and I'm my own best friend
I know I'll die alone in the end
Another 10 years has past and my cage is rusted
I cough from a sickness I had gotten and I know my time is short
Still no friends and even I can't be trusted
I lay in bed knowing my time has thinned
I think about all the times I've sinned
As I lay dieing I can't help but think I could have prevented being trapped in a cage.
