have you ever felt so desperate?
you wanted to give up every,
single thing, you know,
everything and everyone you loved
haven't you loved anyone?
you ran away from every promise,
every dream
you've ever made
or been you sleepwalking all the time?
(sleepwalking all the time)
or did you ever make a change
for something (something)
you wished to become?
living on the crossroads
bowing to the faceless gods,
hoping for the answers,
striving for the comfort,
leaving ruins behind our backs
we want freedom
IN OUR CAGE !
we have built one day,
cold, steel bars,
paper thin walls,
things known better than ourselves
and i'm not hoping for better days with you
absent by my side..
NO SECOND CHANCES
last resorts when we are falling on
falling on OUR BACKS
look at us what we have become
we've become, LOOK AT US !
living on the crossroads,
bowing to the faceless gods,
hoping for the answers,
striving for the comfort,
leaving ruins behind our backs
we want freedom
IN OUR CAGE !
