Heart in a cage

(S. Goebel)

Everywhere around me, people are dead

They focus on things, without any meaning

Everywhere around me, our values wrong

We are not satisfied, with our many things

Everything spins in circles

Our hearts are locked and caged

Everything spins in circles

Our souls are sometimes numb

In other places they know, what they need

Our blind obsessions, are killing our soul

Why be angry, one day we’ll be gone

They tax and control, just let us be

Everything spins in circles

Our hearts are locked and caged

Everything spins in circles

Our souls are sometimes numb

Everyone around me, people are small

Why must you make, an enemy of me

Blinded by selfishness, we look down

You need to let go, and begin to listen

Everything spins in circles

Are hearts are locked and caged

Everything spins in circles

Our souls are sometimes numb
