Cage by Eric Avery Lyrics

Scent carries the news of the world
Home to the animals I live alongside
Creatures of the small cage
Smaller than my own
And whenever it all gets quiet
Looking out through the kitchen window
You're haunted by the murmuring
Of something better, of something else

You thought you could build yourself
A safe little home
As the four walls went up
You saw less and less
And you didn't notice
You built yourself a cell

I might complain and cry
But still I climb inside
Everybody (loves a cage)
Everybody knows (loves a cage)
Everybody (loves a cage)
Everybody knows (a cage)
Everybody (loves a cage)
Everybody knows (a cage)
