[Lyric] Cages (Deas Vail)

I can’t stand the mechanical breath
And I’m scared I could slowly love you to death
I can never let go

On and on we are counting the formulas
We’ve become the modern equation
The numbers of hope

And I won't feed us lies here
They’re not giving us much time

I’d give anything to make it better, baby
This is something I can’t change
Oh, this silence could go on forever
Am I walking with you in your dreams?

These metaphors for conditions and phobias--
We’ll pretend that we can explain, but we know we don’t know
We can’t be led by fear, dear

I’d give anything to make it better, baby
This is something I can’t change
Oh, this silence could go on forever
Am I walking with you in your dreams tonight?
I’d give anything to make it better, baby
This is something I can’t change
Oh, this silence could go on forever
Am I walking with you in your dreams?

[I’d give anything to make it better, baby.]
Hello? Hello? Can you hear me?
[This is something I can’t change.]
Can you show me that you understand?
[Oh, this silence could go on forever.]
Hello? Hello? Can you hear me?
[Am I walking with you in your dreams?]
Can you show me that you understand?

We thought we had it all figured out
But we don’t know the half of it
And somebody will come and save us all
And somebody will come and let us out
Let us out of our cages
