This birdcage shines from these bright Blackberry lights
It keeps birds warm so they shall stay
One bird broke free from the comfort of its home

What it wouldn't give to be there now

Across the street there's this human factory

Where children sell children to moms in need
I hope some factory has a proper job for me
They'll sell me money if I work for free


What can be heard when all the power has gone out
Like a ringtone with no sound

It makes me think when I don't know what thinking is
Power comes back with no worry


Lately my head's full from too much trash talk on tv
And masses all seem to agree
I hold my own, I've got to try for my own sake

'till whatever's said is fine by me

And I keep spinning around I can't stand to hear the silence

Myself running around is a way to help me stay
I'll be playing along this role keeps me from the silence
I'll be spinning my life away


Should I get tired of masturbating my life away
Know that my heart is not for sale

They may have bought my soul, I'll get a new one right away
In god thou thrusts but only when god thou needs


I have set fire to my artificial limbs
From my ideals to my own kids
All this to prove myself that in a way I'm still alive

What I wouldn't give to get them back right now

And I keep spinning around I can't stand to hear the silence

Myself running around is a way to help me stay
I'll be playing along this role keeps me from the silence
I'll be spinning my life away


(repeat)
