Wounded Bird.

I face my troubles defenceless,

I'm a bird without its wings.

But even though I'm featherless.

I'm a wounded bird that sings.

These metal bars prevent my flee,

But I can't see the slightest difference.

What good is being set free,

If you can't feel your own presence.

I took habit in watching them fly,

These fortunate brothers of mine.

But I am not allowed to yell or cry,

Since I'm a stone that cannot shine.

I have a shattered frame of mind

I don't know what to feel anymore.

My loneliness turned me blind,

For I cannot see what to fight for.

What makes us human,

Is actually pretty primitive.

Nothing too obvious,

And nothing definitive.

Outside this cage looms war,

Inside these bars lays a mist.

The fog grows more and more,

A fog that siezes to exist.
