LYRIC FOR SALE

By Gabi

Looking through my window
Seeing my feelings fading slow,
Faster than I can realize
Why all these emotions are appearing now

My sadness was locked inside
In a golden cage that I built with you by my side.
But it took me some time to understand
That in this jail I'm the only one.

You were my key to freedom,
My little piece of heaven to fly to.
How can I keep holding on to that
If it seems this cage wasn’t meant to last?
How can I keep holding on to that
If this cage does not mean home anymore,
And the sky is not meant for me to fly?

We both built this home hand in hand.
Why suddenly does it feel like it's breaking
By forces I don’t even understand?
You fade away and I can’t reach you.
Hope you cross my way one more time.

I tried to follow you in this steady routine we had,
But I lost myself in it.
The cage once seemed full of dreams and joy;
Now it is a dark room where my anxiety uses as playground.

You were my key to freedom,
My little piece of heaven to fly to.
How can I keep holding on to that
If it seems this cage wasn’t meant to last?
How can I keep holding on to that
If this cage does not mean home anymore,
And the sky is not meant for me to fly?

I hope you understand that I tried,
But my wings didn’t seem to work.
And with every attempt, your light stopped
Being my guide back to home.

How do I know what home means now
If the cage is just a cage,
And you have the keys—
Keys you don’t want to use to keep me safe
From being me?

You were my key to freedom,
My little piece of heaven to fly to.
How can I keep holding on to that
If it seems this cage wasn’t meant to last?
How can I keep holding on to that
If this cage does not mean home anymore,
And the sky is not meant for me to fly?
