Chains of gold around
My beating heart grinds down
Just who are the animals
Cages rule this town

I got lost
I got broken on the inside
The clear cost of every hour
To decide

I got tough
Staying clean, & now I'm outside
Her strange ways
were so beautiful in
The sorrows of Winter

Lockets of silver worn
Pockets lined yet torn
We know all the animals
Cages washed in scorn

Chains of gold, they fear
My tired feet once there
Walked with other animals
Cages on each stair.
