Birds of Imprisonment

By Liana C. Di Marco

birds of imprisonment

i think about my dreams of yesterday
and i wonder if they’re worth the price i pay
all i can say is that life’s a dismay

chorus

birds of imprisonment
wanting to fly high up in the sky
spreading our wings wide and free

free to find a dream
light a fire and share knowledge
of peace, love and equality

free to speak our will
darkness is bright
i see the light flicker way beyond

i hear the call of truth
i feel my destiny
i’m blind to reality
i’m blind to reality

let us fly towards our dreams
don’t cage us with your choices
don’t cage us with your choices
don’t cage us with your choices

chorus

let us fly toward a new future
don’t feed us to the lions
we can’t help loving love
we can’t help loving love
we can’t help loving love
for what it is
