Life Without a Cage — текст песни (Adrian Belew)

You used to feel free

You used to feel fine

Now you feel like a captive

In your very own mind



I hear youve been walking on eggs again

Perched on the edge of the lunatic fringe

You cant fly, cant fly, you cant fly away

Youre thinkin about life without a cage



What can I say to you

Im in a different state

What can I offer you

Im on another stage

What can I do for you?



I hear youve been dying in your living room

Chained to the furniture, looking for the door

You cant move, cant move, you cant move eternally

Still thinkin about life without a cage



You smile much less, yes,

Invariably the verge of a frown

You sleep in all day,

Hiding from your reasoning



You used to be free

Well, what can I say?
