|| this cage


-Your eyes, I see, are shining still
but they brim with hurt, that familiar fill
The weight they carry, I know it well
I know your pain, I know the feel

I told you our way was hard
I didn't choose it, did I?
from the beginning we were scarred
we didn't choose it did we?

You said we could be this royal youth
I said we are untouchable, is that the truth?
I told you I was fine and you said the same
We learned that early, to play this game

We were raised on poison, its in our blood
I can never shake it, do you think I should?
I know you are confused, cause I am too
If I find the truth, I'll share it with you

Tell me your thoughts, I see that fear
We need each other, or so I hear
I need you to laugh or I'm gonna cry
I'm trying to show you, I'm not gonna hide

I would change the past for you 
If I could, I swear I would. 
You would take this load from me, 
but that doesn't mean you should

Your heart, I know was scarred from the start
And now, I see, I understand that part

We can do this together
I know we can change
He unlocked the door
lets climb out of this cage
