lyrics

You’ve got a way of hanging onto a thread and keeping me upon my toes and not let down
I believe in a place, somewhere real or fantasy where we could find another kind of love
So it goes, all I’ve got the photographs and hints of what you are still in a cage
And I left long ago, the chains that be unbroken still, and on my back the ache of letting go
When will the songbird be set free

I’ve been long, brother and companion, but what I need I’ve never known before
And its sweet like a rose, a sister how the story goes, at night when I’m alone I’m longing for
So far away, I wish I knew the day, I wish I never had to carry all this weight
When will the songbird be set free

I can’t understand the way you’re hiding
Using what you can to keep it closed
Trapped inside a world that I keep fighting
When I come to terms I’ll let you know
