letra de golden cage - marty mckay

[verse 1]
so many choices for this girl
a future so bright, the oyster was her world
early 30’s, fear of being left on the self
running out of options that she left for herself
guess she figured before she lose her beautiful face
she’s using her face, to move into a beautiful place
and be a suburban wife, in her suburban life
less competition out there, plus she deserves the ice
but she deferred the price, the ultimate debt
star of her own movie? she’s more like an alternate pet
husband landed the starring role, he’s the culprit on set
this was her retirement plan, she was supposed to be set
she never seen her true worth
but kept telling herself, times could be worse
all she wanted to be was stable
but instead, she got trapped up in his stable
can’t realize how much she’d given up
while watching her better half just live it up
she couldn’t face the idea “being alone”
now she’s stuck in a relationship she’s outgrown

[pre-chorus]
she dies a little each day
her soul bound in chains
now she’s stuck in her golden cage
[verse 2]
her depression got out of control
her suppressed ambition weighed down on her soul
making him happy made her feel half-alive
until they lost all intimacy, no way that’d survive
opposites attract but this is more like hypocrisy
he was a big sports fan, she was into philosophy
he made her feel safe like a dad in essence
a complex she developed in her adolescence
beautiful on the outside, a well-built seclusion
trapped in this golden cage, a self-built illusion
living in this dimly lit room¬
her happy energy became dimly lit too
it kept her from taking a stand for her dreams
for the man of her dreams, or how so it seemed
hid her negative feelings in a battle against her own self
the thing with “inner-conflict” is, no one shows up with no help
but enough time passed, she asked her soul to be set free
and about that time, fate made it so she re-met me
in common i have so much with her
maybe that’s why something told me i should get back in touch with her
pre-chorus
she dies a little each day
her soul bound in chains
now she’s stuck in her golden cage
[chorus]
broken angel wings, i know it’s hard to fly
make your way through ashes, from a dream that died
when hopes are shattered
know the silence you’ve come to know
now you’re all alone
it’s time to fly home

[verse 3]
and it feels like, we now are home y’all, texting all day long
and three two-hour phone calls, it’s deep how our souls fall
we started hanging, tweety bird stepped out her cage
but still holding on to the bars, trynna figure me out in ways
still, this is just a silly fad
testing if i’m really bad, before froggy leaps her lily pad
i’m an artist like picasso, h-ll, da vinci
but i never thought my artistry would be held against me
am i too defensive to get offended?
“oh, he’s an artist! dudes melodic, too exotic and independent!”
though we deeply connected on a level we equal respected
she didn’t let me get close enough to “peep” or “inspect” it
check if the sh-t was real, ‘cause it felt real to me
and if it was real, then we should figure out
what’s the deal and chill then build and see
i felt her longing to be held in comforted
but so afraid of perfection, she’d d-mn near run from it
held back as a slave
paralyzed with fear, held back in her cage
and the ground was a long way down
she had wings but couldn’t fly, that’s how it all played out
[chorus]
broken angel wings, i know it’s hard to fly
make your way through ashes, from a dream that died
when hopes are shattered
know the silence you’ve come to know
now you’re all alone
it’s time to fly home

[bridge]
save me
save me

[verse 4]
but i wanted to rescue her, unlock the cage
set her free, let her be, wish i could stop the page
freeze time, try it over, try a dozen takes
this time, fear won the battle, she thought i wasn’t safe
scared she couldn’t keep up with a crazy rapping singer
but i’d be glad to bring her on tour to show how i’m wrapped around her finger
look, fear works something like this
it only flourishes when you pretend it doesn’t exist
fear is the cages glue
but it’s an energy field that you just gotta move through
but it is easy to unlock and leave behind
but only you have the key, to free your mind
face the unknown, leave your safety zone
when you shine your inner light in a dark place, it’s gone!
and it shows you don’t respect yourself
when you compromise just how you felt, for somebody else
and this next statement? as real as it gets
the wounds aren’t your fault, but not healing them is
so girl unlock your cage’s door
make the move you’ve never made before, that’s what you’re created for
the fear you display shows room for growth
and there’s room for both, of us to bloom and grow
embrace the dark, and when the timing is right
i’ll be waiting for ya on the other side of the light
whatever you do i’ll still want you
try to embrace it, it won’t hurt you, come on baby, face the dark tunnel
unlock the door of your golden cage and walk it through
and if you need some guidance baby, i’ll talk you through

[chorus]
broken angel wings, i know it’s hard to fly
make your way through ashes, from a dream that died
when hopes are shattered
know the silence you’ve come to know
now you’re all alone
it’s time to fly home

[outro]
she dies a little each day
her soul bound in chains
now she’s stuck in her golden cage
save me
save me
