Bird In A Cage

I was a bird in a cage I sang for freedom I sang to escape So I set that bird ablaze I watched as I rose Above the flames So high, high I rise, rise Out of the darkness into the light I shine like the stars burning holes in the sky Oh I always dreamed Of being released I soar through the air now With the greatest of ease So high, high, I rise, rise Oh tonight These bars turn to wind chimes That echo out of my windpipe As I sing from such great heights I was a bird in a cage I sang for freedom I sang to escape So I set that bird ablaze I watched as I rose Above the flames So high, high I rise, rise So high, high I fly, fly
