Birdcage

So sad that you took it so badly and acted so madly

I'm so scared like a baby by the morning

With sunlight unfoldingWell, your eyes have turned red

And are holding me inside your story, in the end

You'll have started on a new one of anguish and delusionHe smiles just like a magician who's just cast his illusions

Of castles and sandstones on the back beach

And bright lights within your reachBut the sounds of a warning by the morning of hound dogs coming for me

With the ropes leading back to your knees

And you looking straight at meOn your knees in the rain with a basket of flowers just for me

As the bells in the trees up above all swung and rang softly

You said you rang them for me, well for me
