Caged

Caged like an animal inside the zoo


Pacing back and forth

Mulling over and over what was done wrong In the past

Hoping for a brighter day

Hoping for God to bless me with someone


Strike out at all who come close


Drive them all away


Will it ever come


The blessing from God


Or doomed am I
 As I pace this cage


To drive all away and die all alone


With not a tear shed


Would you could you help


Or would you run away


Would you stay or do you run


Who am I


That life means something


Help me I cry


As I pace
 I cry out


I strike out another and drive them away


Will you leave too or will you stay


This night I plead


Do not leave my side


Though I drive thee away


For without thee I am nothing


Nothing but a shadow of a man


Even then just a vapor in the wind


Caged am I


Will I ever escape


Will you be the one who helps


Who stays by me


Whom I cannot send away


Stay by me


Stay by my side


For I need you now


For I cannot escape on my own


For without you I am powerless


I am nothing
 but the lowest of the low
