| I know why the caged bird sings
|
| It’s for me
|
| It’s for me
|
| I know why the caged bird sings
|
| Today i am helpless
|
| And time stands still
|
| And the world goes on racing
|
| As the world always will
|
| And days turn to weeks
|
| And weeks into months
|
| Leaving no answers
|
| And treasures lost
|
| Now all that i have is all that i am
|
| Not much more than the shell of a man
|
| There’s no revelations
|
| No wisdom no rhymes
|
| No freedom no pleasure
|
| No songs that are mine
|
| I’m a ship lost at sea
|
| In the waves and disease
|
| Chaos above me neptune beneath
|
| I can’t see the stars that guide the way
|
| This night’s just begun
|
| And dawn’s so far away
|
| What will happen?
|
| Chaos above me neptune beneath
|
| No life is never fair it owes me nothing
|
| Just when i had it all i lost everything
|
| But somehow god is good and god is loving
|
| And just when i lost it all i gained everything
|
| I know why the caged bird sings
|
| It’s for me
|
| It’s for me
|
| I know why the caged bird sings
|
| It’s for me
|
| That i might see |
