Getting out of bed, getting in your head You try to forget, but you don't wanna do this anymore You go at it alone like a rolling stone The monkey on your back saying you don't wanna do this anymore You don't have the fire anymore No You rearrange your face, you get a different place You moved out of the rat race, looking for the something you let go The world is saying yes, your heart is saying no One thing is for damn sure, you can never seem to find a cure This shit just don't cut it anymore No Just like a bird on a wire In the middle of a fire Life's a cage without a door Deep in the muck and the mire Just a prisoner of desire It's a never-ending war You're like a bird Like a bird on a wire You're like a bird Like a bird on a wire I walk into a church and leave a track of dirt Reborn in the word, my mama would be proud, to say the least And so I met the lord, but still I have my doubts Am I in or out? Oh, will the water hold beneath my feet? Are we doomed to fail and then repeat? Just like a bird on a wire In the middle of a fire Life's a cage without a door Deep in the muck and the mire Just a prisoner of desire It's a never-ending war Just like a bird Like a bird on a wire Just like a bird Like a bird on a wire The moment has arrived But we're never satisfied The moment has arrived But we can never be satisfied No Just like a bird on a wire In the middle of a fire Life's a cage without a door Just like a bird In the mire, just a prisoner of desire It's a never-ending war The moment has arrived, but we're never satisfied The moment has arrived, but we can never be satisfied, no
