What does it take

to stand for my pride

in a building of glass

But I'm still throwing stones inside



Man in a cage

A perfect place of perfect isolation

A heart full of pain

A door that leads to desperation

How could I forget we keep on playing different games

And I exit the stage

feeling like a puppet retired from the hands of fate



Why do I hesitate

Why can't I break free

And why do I still believe

this cage was made for you and me



What does it take

to live a life of perfect isolation

And what will remain

on the road to desperation

How could I pretend this life was only made for me

and nobody else

Steppin' in my cage to free me from my chains



Why do I hesitate

Why can't I break free

And why do I still believe

this cage was made for you and me

It's made for you and me



Man in a cage

I'm livin' in my room

Why won't you see that I'm engaged
