Free As A Bird

In its cage it sits

On its swing it chirps

Days and nights pass

Sorrowful songs it sings

"What wrong did I do

To live between bars"

"How long will I stay

Before I return to the skies"

"Will I ever be free

Of this cage that they call home?"

"Will I ever be

Able to return home?"

And as these thoughts flick by

In her little head

The doors of the cage open

And she flies and takes of ahead

"Spread your wings and fly little bird

I'll never be able to keep you

For you always prefer your freedom

Over dying between these bars"

"Will I ever gain my freedom

Just like I gave you yours?"

"Will I ever be granted this wish

To return to everything I know?"
