The Cage
Tongue tied, mouth sewn;
You knew the me that was unknown
Opened up and let you in
Never will be whole again
You took so much, what did I give;
In my aching heart you live
Steaming blood and scratching within
You’re the demon under my skin
Tear me open, shine my light;
The fire in me burning bright
Tear me down, reveal the lies
Cold air rush in, last ember die
In your eyes I’m ugly and weak
Hopeless- future looking bleak
Crush my bones, spit on me;
Gauge my eyes so I can’t see
You steered my wheel now I’m in control
Taking back the heart you stole
I’m smashing in my rearview mirror,
The road before me becoming clearer
I can mend my broken wings
Your voice is muted as my bell rings
