Here I am,
back in this same old empty room.
Nothing to do
but close my eyes
and think of you.
We are worlds apart
but somehow you
still touch my heart.
Life is full of irony.
I want to feel
life's embrace
but no matter how
hard I try I end
up back inside this place.
A loving smile might be the key
to this jail cell.
I long so much just to be free.

I am caged in a prison
of my own making.
It's like a nightmare
playing over and over
and there ain't no
way of waking.

If you have a hand
reach it out to me.
I will hold on
like a man drowning in the sea.
I know there are many more
like me suffering
sentenced to life
in solitary.
A look into some
loving eyes might
be all I need.

I am caged in a prison
of my own making.
It's like a nightmare
playing over and over
and there ain't no way
of waking.

Free!
I long to be free,
free to find some
love again.
I'll send a message
in a bottle. Maybe you'll
find it, maybe then
I will come alive
once again.

I am caged in a prison
of my own making.
