The Golden Cage Songtext
Hold my attention for a while, adjust my vision, make me smile
Don't know why you're so confused, you're flesh and blood, there's no excuse.
The greatest truth is yours to tell, man made heaven and man made hell.
A golden cage to hold us all, where the wicked thrive, the righteous fall.
Your life is forfeit for the trade, the one true fear, is being afraid.
My gods are coming down fast, uncovered happiness at last
Our finest days have yet to come, these summer nights go on so long.
Good luck, good book, goodwill. Your best one-liners from a film.

I want it, I need it, the hope is getting stronger as I'm holding on
I wanna feel it now,
I can't leave it all behind

But the way you shout and scream and curse the colour red,
they're just stories from my head.
Time and tide and truth thereof, lying breathless in the arms of love.
So, think of us as true romance, and give us both a second chance.
Your life is forfeit for the trade, the one true fear, is being afraid.

I want it, I need it, the hope is getting stronger as I'm holding on
I wanna feel it now,
I Can't leave it all behind
