Cages - Deas Vail

I can’t stand the mechanical breath

And I’m scared I could slowly love you to death

I can never let go

On and on we are counting the formulas

We’ve become the modern equation

The numbers of hope

And I won’t feed us lies here

They’re not giving us much time

I’d give anything to make it better, baby

This is something I can’t change

Oh, this silence could go on forever

Am I walking with you in your dreams?

These metaphors for conditions and phobias--

We’ll pretend that we can explain, but we know we don’t know

We can’t be led by fear, dear

I’d give anything to make it better, baby

This is something I can’t change

Oh, this silence could go on forever

Am I walking with you in your dreams tonight?

I’d give anything to make it better, baby

This is something I can’t change

Oh, this silence could go on forever

Am I walking with you in your dreams?

Hello?

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Can you show me that you understand?

Hello?

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Can you show me that you understand?

We thought we had it all figured out

But we don’t know the half of it

And somebody will come and save us all

And somebody will come and let us out

Let us out of our cages
