This Is My Favorite Cage |
Oh this is my favorite cage |
It grows up around me like silver strands |
Of briar and roses, wisdom and rage |
To cradle my heart like a bird in your hand |
Of briar and roses, wisdom and rage |
This is my favorite cage |
It grows up around me like silver strands |
And cradles my heart like a bird in your hand |
This is a beautiful war to be sure |
A surrendering hero’s name will be sung |
Or scratched in the sand like some secret cure |
When all else has failed and the battle feared won |
Scratched in the sand like some secret cure |
This is a beautiful war to be sure |
A surrendering hero’s name will be sung |
When all else has failed and the battle feared won |
This is a star more perfect than peace |
A flash in the dark setting fire to trees |
Wresting my faith down out of the eaves |
Bending my will back up on its knees |
This is loveliest tumble from grace |
Into the arms of what is unbound |
From gravity’s rule by a glimpse of your face |
It sets to falling what will never touch ground |
From gravity’s rule by a glimpse of your face |
This is loveliest tumble from grace |
Into the arms of what is unbound |
You set me to falling and I never touch ground |
