Lyrics

These are self-inflicted wounds
And all the humming in my ears
I translate to the din of birds flapping their wings against their cage in despair
Despair
I need escape to the wild
To maintain my humanity
To get the nourishment I need
Hear free birds singing sweetly, oh but so sweetly
So sweetly
Caged birds
Fly free in dreams
Tugging on my feathers ‘cos there’s nothing else to do
Mutilating and demonstrating that there’s nothing else to do
These are self-inflicted wounds, I'm pecking pecking at the point
But it's moot
They got their fancy distractions
Their wicked motivations
Coax you into comfy cages, dull your nerves and calm your rages
It's all illusions
I want to fly…..
Over the smog-capped valley, the traffic-clogged city, oh carry me, carry me!
I want to fly….
Over the snow-capped mountains, over polluted rivers, carry me, oh carry me!
These are self-inflicted wounds
And all the humming in my ears
I translate to the din of birds flapping their wings against their cage in despair
Despair
We build our nests of barbed wire
We let no one inside
We construct nests ringed in fire, singed our feathers, but we’re safe within
Within this construct we hide
I want to fly….
Over the snow-capped mountains, over polluted rivers, wind carry me, carry me!
We build our nests of barbed wire, we let no one in
We construct nests ringed in fire, singed our feathers, but we’re safe within
Caged birds
Fly free in dreams
Caged birds…living in the city
Living in the city.
