Oiseau

The caged bird sings a sad song

It's not too short and not too long

But it's just enough that no one else

Will sing along

Wake me up

Before you go

I'll tell you everything

That you wanna know

I'm passing out wasted

The freedom that I tasted

Was so sweet

It was so sweet

I'm nothing more than blood and bones

But I'm happy as I'm running home

To tell you

Tell you

The first light came and I change

You leaned outside and called my name

We're nothing of what we once were

Amazed to say

I'm going on a journey

(All alone)

So go ahead and try and hurt me

(All alone)

The certainty that surged through me

When I heard the breeze

You can't clip my wings

Or make me sane

I'm passing out wasted

The freedom that I tasted

Was so sweet

It was so sweet

I'll break this cage and fly away

Only courage carries me

I'm left with just a memory

The open sky, I'm home at last

The shadows are an overcast

We can't leave all our love behind

My only weapon now is timing

You can't touch me

I'm passing out wasted
