Bird in a Cage
I am a bird in a cage
With wings spread and ready to fly
But the bars kept me from going
I am trapped inside
I am an only daughter
My parents loving and all
Yet they build walls around me
Where I cannot grow
Like a bird in a cage
I want to spread my wings
Taste the sweetness of freedom
Love every minute of it
Mom and dad, why can’t you see?
I need to be with others like me
It doesn’t mean I’ll leave you soon
I just want to know what’s outside my room
I want to be independent but that doesn’t mean I don’t need you
I’ll come back, that I promise
To show you what I can do
With wings spread and ready to fly
But the bars kept me from going
I am trapped inside
I am an only daughter
My parents loving and all
Yet they build walls around me
Where I cannot grow
Like a bird in a cage
I want to spread my wings
Taste the sweetness of freedom
Love every minute of it
Mom and dad, why can’t you see?
I need to be with others like me
It doesn’t mean I’ll leave you soon
I just want to know what’s outside my room
I want to be independent but that doesn’t mean I don’t need you
I’ll come back, that I promise
To show you what I can do
