Caged

You hold so tight until your knuckles show

Escape

As far away as you could ever know



You sink them

All down

And watch them float up

Until the wheel has spun around



You will

Be bound by what you are

You stand in the corner with your face stripped of colour

For what?



If you want to be a passenger

Climb aboard with me we're leaving now

Step outside and see

Another world

Only if you want to be a passenger



Chained

So many places you'd prefer to be

Than

Framed

By a picket fence and salary



You sink them all down

Then watch them float up

Until the

Wheel has spun around



You will be bound by who you are

You're tied to the corner

With your

Hope twisted under

In knots



If you want to be a passenger

Climb aboard with me we're leaving

Now step outside and see another world

Only if you want to be a passenger
