lyrics

i am looking for dispersion
for a vibrant state of mind
i got lost between the pages
where are the people of my kind?

i am longing for distraction
baby, that's what you are
you're a decent interaction
and for sure won't leave a scar

i am walking towards sunset
red and yellow light to my left and right
casting blueish framed shadows
they decay when i take flight

you might have already noticed
that i am on a rampage stray
i missed you while i owned this
i missed you on my way

don't cage me, please, don't cage me
bounding with me is a promise to not push me down
don't cage me, please, don't cage me
lived long enough for the others so i have to be free

you won't own me, you'll never, never ever own me
bounding with me is a promise to not hold me back
you won't own me, you'll never, never ever ever own me
lived long enough for the others so i have to spread my wings and be free
