Oiseau by The Kindred Lyrics

The caged bird sings a sad song
It’s not short and not too long
But it’s just enough that no one else will sing along

Wake me up before you go
I’ll tell you everything that you want to know

I’m passing out and wasted
The freedom that I tasted was so sweet

I’m nothing more than blood and bones
But I’m happiest when running home to tell you

The first light came and I changed
You leaned outside and called my name
But nothing of what we once were remains the same
I’m going on a journey, all alone
So go ahead and try and hurt me, all alone
The certainty that surged through me when I heard the breeze

You can’t clip my wings or make me sing
I’ll break this cage and fly away
My only carriage carries me
I left a distant memory
The open sky I’m home at last
The shadows that I overcast
Will cover all I left behind
My only limit now is time
And you can’t touch me
