Sonata Arctica: The Cage

A lifetime ago, with frozen eyes they closed the door
Suddenly I realised what locks are for
No trusting them anymore, Lights - are - out

Empty the stare, innocent and unaware,
Dragged out from my home, my lair
Earmarked me, hurt me, burned me

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend
I do not have another year in me, youve gotta set me free..

The Dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
Go around and see another side of the tree
Freedom has a meaning for me, howl with me

Fear in the dark, I advice you
cant see the eyes, the glow behind you
its my song they now sing to you
You stand no chance

Theyll kill for me, steal back my freedom, set me free,
Its my minions vs.thee
Fiery the vengeance, hate will drain me

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend
I do not have another year in me, youve gotta set me free..

The Dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
Go around and see another side of the tree
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and (dream)

The dream is alive, with the moon on the hills every night,
Run around and see another side of the dream
Freedom has a meaning for me, you cant tame me

You will remember the day you crossed my path
Leave me without a guard and you feel my wrath
What you have done to me has made me bitter and cruel
Ill see that all the hate you spread returns to you, you, back to you

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend
I do not have another year in me, youve gotta set me free..
