Caged
Bound my wings and chained me down
Didn't let me let go off the ground
All I wanted was a chance to fly
All you gave me were reasons to cry
Silent tears that were no consolation
You never noticed, no consideration
I died everyday trying to do what you expected
Never got a chance to be the way I wanted
Hate's a strong word, dislike's too little
I don't have words for you, my heart's brittle
Brittle, or maybe bitter I should say
Rather, shout out and scream, 'Go away!'
Why did you do this to me?
Made me break down so completely?
'Go live your life' is that so hard?
Four words that could mend a heart.
Until then, I despise you
For the choices you forced me to make
Not all you think is always right and true
If the recipe's for vanilla, a chocolate cake isn't what you'll bake.
