lyrics

[i would not just be afraid
if the world were a safe place
and i would not be so scared
of all the ghosts]

(elizabeth clare prophet,
invocation for the judgement against and destruction of rock music)

o giving up on you
is so hard to do
when you're in perfect view
in a cage in a zoo
don't pretend to love all that is above
it's just a sky to me
don't reflect in song
i have written wrongs
i have been freed

and that bird still sings
in that cage with closed wings
and you can not spread so thin
thin enough to win love
clip your beak as well
i have been through hell
i came back again
and the other side
though i tried to try
i didn't have those sins

i want to love another person
i want to share my heart
no i don't want no other person
thought it was just a part of the game
that we play to have to say

i'm in love with you
but my heart beats true
it skips when i tell a lie
to your heart to your eye
but you did the same
you should be ashamed
i know that you are
when you bit my chest
to eat my heart i guess
i still have the scar

i want to love another person
i want to share my heart
no i don't want no other person
thought it was just a part of the game
that we play
