Bird In A Cage

The bars in town become a prison
And your dreams are the same
Full of sound and vision
And moments becoming hours that turn into days
Years and a life, bird in a cage

Every road I took to meet you, love
Is washed out by time
Still I see you everywhere
Haunting the light of a broken down stage
Howl in the night, bird in a cage

Found an unopened letter
From before you were gone
It's like reading the weather
Just empty words, ink on a page
Something unheard, bird in a cage

As I wonder where you are tonight
From this cold rented room
Somewhere 'tween wrong and right
It is what it is, whatever you say
Wind in the sage, bird in a cage
