Recurring theme in my life these days. Like a caged bird that was lied to.
"Caged in the gilded cage and wings clipped,
I sing of the blue I have not seen
And dream of the green I have not known.
Out there is the place called "The World"
Where those of my kind fly far and free.
The door opens and that person will say:
That is the place where you're meant to be.
But I still sing of the blue I will not know
And I still dream of the green I will not see.
Caged in the gilded cage and wings clipped
Is the choice you have long chosen for me."
