Why The Caged Bird Sings (not related to the book)
While the days will change, Into depressing, lonely nights, And while the ocean's tide sways strong and wide, Yet where it's deep it's calm and quit, Hoping that maybe it can keep it a secret, But it cannot... I will sail towards it. While the days will change, Into depressing, lonely nights, You will not... You will always be the same, And I will once again be my own best friend, While struggling as my own worst enemy. While the days will change, Into depressing, lonely nights, The caged bird does not... It still sings the same old, happy song, Hoping to one day soar above the heavens, But I cannot hear the caged bird, Because I'd have to be looking outside in, To see something like that. He is still caged, Whether the days turn to night, Whether to tide does change, Whether you stay the same, The caged bird that sings, Is still caged. The only reason you hear happy songs is because you'd like to believe the caged bird lives, But really, You make them all up, So you can sleep at night.
