I sit in this cage,
Everyday I pray to get out
The doors are open,
My freedom is granted
Yet I cannot leave,
Not because I have no choice,
Not because I have not tried
But because deep down
I know that I will die
I will die without the love we share
I will die without your care
And though I might not die physically
My heart will surely despair!
For I love the way you touch me
The way you make me feel
And though I know it’s present
I question it being real
I still think you play me
In all the things you do
And when I tell u this
You tell me it’s not true
I need you in my life
Much more than I think you know
But I need to know for now if this love is going to grow
Is t going to blossom like the beautiful little flower?
Or
Is it going to wither and die as it does in it’s latest hour?
I need to know this baby
You need to tell me now
Break my heart if you have to
Tear it to shreds
Stomp it to bits
Eat it raw
Just let me out this cage
I truly need to leave it
Even if it mean I have to die
So kill me now inside it
And let my spirit fly!
