Golden Bird

I live in a Golden Cage
And eat the crumbs you pack
I learn the songs you teach me
And you tell me I do it well
And you give me the chance
To be the performer

But will you give me the chance
to fly?

One day you'll be
a VIP
you tell me

To that I must aspire

But I have seen...
Golden Birds
sacrifice their souls

And I start to wonder...
Are you asking me
To sacrifice mine?

Give me a chance
To fly

Give me a chance
To fly
