The Cage Songtext
von Red Lamb

Hush now, baby, don′t you cry
I can't wipe your teary eyes
You look at me terrified
Why?

Invade my dreams every night
Claw for air (I can′t breathe)
Fight for life (every night)
Trip to nowhere, celestial flight
The trip was (oh so real)
And dying just (blew my mind)

He told me "Son, walk"
I walk, not by sight but by faith
He told me "Son, talk"
Of love and of hope every day
I asked my friend "When will it end?"
He said again and again
"It is time"


For forty years
Or was it forty nights?
A living hell (I'm not dying)
In the desert (not tonight)
Trip to heaven, celestial flight
I'm almost there (I′m getting ready)
It tastes so real (blew my mind)

He told me "Son, walk"
I walk, not by sight but by faith
He told me "Son, talk"
Of love and of hope every day
I asked my friend "When will it end?"
He said one more time again
"It is time"

My torment has been legendary
Persecution and insufferable rage
I left my dead self in a cemetery
A damned little soul set free from its cage
My torment has been legendary
Persecution and insufferable rage
I left my dead self in a cemetery
A damned little soul set free from its cage
My desert time is over
It′s not my time of dying
My desert time is over
It's not my time of dying


Hush now, baby, don′t you cry
I can't wipe your teary eyes
You look at me terrified
Oh, baby, don′t you cry
Hush now, baby, don't you cry
I can′t wipe your teary eyes
You look at me terrified
Oh, baby, don't you cry
