caged

really old lyrics

i am caged,
by my emotions,
but you have the keys,
to my restraints.
will you set me free?
do you even care?

i ask for reprieve,
for emotional escape.
you stare at me,
with those beautiful eyes,
they see through me.
do they see,
what i feel for you?

CHORUS
with broken eyes,
i follow my heart blindly,
with shattered dreams,
i come to you with all honest,
i imbrace all my darkest fears,
and sacrefice myself to you

you raise your hand,
and relinquish the key,
to my restraints.
the key fits but it does not turn..

you stare at me in wonder,
and my eyes fill with tears,
as the shock of your words hit me..
"this key is not ment for you"

you turn on me,
and walk away,
never looking back,
my screams echo through,
the empty black..
"how could i be so blind?"

i weep in my cage,
of empty emotions,
the cold steel,
presses against my numb skin...
will i ever be free?
