Metropolis movie - Cage of Freedom lyrics

Song by Jon Anderson<br /><br>

Cage of freedom<br>

That's our prison<br>

Where the jailer and captive combine<br>

Cage of freedom<br>

Cast in power<br>

All the trappings of our own design<br>

Blind ambition<br>

Steals our reason<br>

We're soon behind those invisible bars<br>

Song text taken from stlyrics.com<br>

On the inside<br>

Looking outside<br>

To make it safer we double the guard<br>

Cage of freedom<br>

There's no escaping<br>

We fabricated a world of our own....<br>

<br>

Cage of freedom, growing smaller<br>

'Til every wall now touches the skin<br>

Cage of freedom, filled with treason<br>

Changing sides as the losses begin<br>

Our suspicion tries escaping<br>

But they step up the security<br>

There's no exit--there's no entrance<br>

Remember how we swallowed the key?<br>

Cage of freedom, that's our prison<br>

We fabricated this world on our own....<br>

<br>

Big brother<br>

Is there a bigger one watching you<br>

Or is there one smaller <br>

Who I should be watching too<br>

Infinite circles of<br>

Snakes eating their own tails<br>

For every one chasing<br>

Another is on the trail<br>

Is that a friend<br>

Can you tell, is he on your side?<br>

'Cause I spy with my little eye<br>

Yet another spy... (fadeout)<br>

<br>
