lyrics

Welcome to my silent cage

Can you feel my simmering rage?
The world thinks I got nothing to say

They want me to stay that way


They say I’m outta control  
But they don’t see my soul
The world is overwhelming me
Can’t you please set me free?

Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Please set me free

Step inside my silent cage
Can’t you see I’m on a stage?
The world says i cannot think
It has pushed me to the brink

They say I’m lost and dumb
Their stares say I’m less than scum
No voice, no choice, no thoughts, no brain
They think that I'm insane

Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Please set me free

Free from anger and frustration
Free from boredom’s cruel tick
Free from lowered expectations
Free from futures I can’t pick
Free from dejection and rejection
Free from fits of smashing rage
Free from pity and despair
Free from my silent cage

Can you see that you are they?
You keep me locked up this way
Give me a chance and you will see
A brilliant mind inside of me

Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Please set me free

Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Please
