Trapped in a cage, all alone,

Without a place to call home.

Surrounded by thousands of birds with wings,

Surrounded by all beautiful things.

I want to fly,

I don't want to cry.

I want to be free,

I don't want it to just me.

I want to fly into the unknown,

But not on my own.

Even though it still stings,

I am the only bird that ever stings.

I sing to my only friend the sky,

I will sing to him until I die.

While other birds fly with glee,

None of them have ever heard me plea.

I am that bird trapped alone,

And this cage is my home.

Surrounded by thousands of birds with wings,

Surrounded by all beautiful things.
