| Lyrics: |
This tragic fool tries to control you
as if a human could direct atomic blasts.
his power radiates, false
and fraught with danger,
sublimate or you may not survive.
The caged bird sings
and tries to please the pinching fingers
plunging in
forgot, for now, just how to fly.
You wait, he'll know,
he's never seen a fury matched by yours
and in the end he'll wish he'd merely died.
He'll wish he'd merely died.
Her sleight of mind, her psychic
parlor tricks now fail
you've felt this free before
but you forgot.
Call control imaginary
and abruptly sieze the reigns
re-direct and infect her with your pure disdain.
The caged bird sings
and tries to please the pinching fingers
plunging in
forgot, for now, just how to fly.
You wait, she'll know,
she's never seen a fury matched by yours
and in the end she'll wish she'd merely died.
She'll wish she'd merely died.
So here i am
you've given me this gift
of life and breath and breadth
of panicked strife.
And now just what exactly
would you posit is the point,
the crux, the drift of this unwelcome quest?
The caged bird sings
and tries to patch the punctured pride and
plaster over every time
that she has lied.
I wilt, i taste her essence
and i want her here beside me
but, alas, that tie has been excized...
i wish i would have died.
His sleight of mind,
his psychic parlor tricks now fail
I've felt this free before, but i forgot.
I called control imaginary and abruptly
seized the reigns
re-directed and infected her with my disdain
the caged bird sang and tried to please
the pinching fingers plunging in,
forgot, for then, just how to fly.
You wait, she'll know
he's never seen a fury
matched by yours
and in the end they'll all wish they had died
indifference drowns their cries.
