Adrian Belew - Twang Bar King

Life Without A Cage Lyrics

by Adrian Belew
Album: Twang Bar King (1983)



You used to feel free
You used to feel fine
Now you feel like a captive
In your very own mind

I hear youve been walking on eggs again
Perched on the edge of the lunatic fringe
You cant fly, cant fly, you cant fly away
Youre thinkin about life without a cage

What can I say to you
Im in a different state
What can I offer you
Im on another stage
What can I do for you?

I hear youve been dying in your living room
Chained to the furniture, looking for the door
You cant move, cant move, you cant move eternally
Still thinkin about life without a cage

You smile much less, yes,
Invariably the verge of a frown
You sleep in all day,
Hiding from your reasoning

You used to be free
Well, what can I say?
