The Cage

Sonata Arctica

A lifetime ago, with frozen eyes they closed the door

Suddenly I realized 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, you've 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

You can not see the eyes, they grow behind

you

It's my song they now sing to you

You stand no chance



They'll kill for me, steal back my freedom, set me free

It's my minions versus 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, you've 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 can't 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

I'll see that all the hate you spread returns to you, you, 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, you've 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 can't tame me



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
