Cage

This feels like high school again

You just went and dropped my hand

Ran off into the wind

Is this high school again?

You swooped in holding out a hand

My hero, my Wonder Woman

My close old friend

To save me once again

(Save me once again)

⸻

I fell for the same old trap

But what can I say? I love that cage

At least it had space—space for me, my very own place

The cage door was open, but what can I say?

Leaving the cage meant leaving her space

But where would I go?

Too far from home

I’d be all on my own

That cage was my home—

So would I be wrong

To not want to roam?

When she held me close with no knife to my throat

Anytime, I could go—

But when I let go

I felt the tug on the rope

Pulling me back

Back to my home

What can I say?

Back to the place—my safety… the cage

⸻

This feels like high school again

You just went and dropped my hand

Ran off into the wind

Is this high school again?

You swooped in holding out a hand

My hero, my Wonder Woman

My close old friend

To save me once again

(Save me once again)

⸻

The trap finally broke

My hero arose

Breaking the cage had me so low

Removing the rope

I felt the freedom of hope

But where do I go?

She took me in close

And what can I say?

Maybe I won’t miss that cage

If my hero’s willing to let me

Fly away

(…away)

⸻

This feels like high school again

You just went and dropped my hand

Ran off into the wind

Is this high school again?

You swooped in holding out a hand

My hero, my Wonder Woman

My close old friend

To save me once again

(Save me once again)

This feels like high school again

You just went and dropped my hand

Ran off into the wind

Is this high school again?

You swooped in holding out a hand

My hero, my Wonder Woman

My close old friend

To save me once again

(Save me once again)

Once again….
