In a past, malignant winter I knew the cruelty of your kids The way they drew back when I offered my hand Hurt me more than their ignorance did I became so cold and distant Raising up walls to prevent the worst They all lied when they said being different is beautiful Lonliness is only a curse Then you tore down the walls, brick by brick, tree by tree You treated me as human as I always knew I should be And when the time does come to show you I know that you will finally see I'm not a bird in a cage to be pitied I am for you if you are for me Sometimes I'll need some space Sometimes I'll need to cover up my face I am not some broken machine I am not someone's cheap fantasy I'm a person with flaws and desires and dreams And I think I've found someone who's worthy of me And I hope, I hope that when you will finally see I'm not a bird in a cage to be pitied I am for you if you are for me
