Just like a little bird Inside a little cage Trying to find the strength To learn to turn the page Just like a mermaid I am trapped under the sea Trying to understand What life wants me to be Heroes and villains And old lovers walk by They tip their hats but They never answer why Why does it always seem to bring me back to this Searching for home in someone else's gentle kiss Searching for home in places Home just don't exist Heroes and villains Old lovers walk by They tip their hats but They never answer why So just like the mermaid I will swim up to the light Just like that little bird It's time for me to fly
