Golden Cage

Verse One

Driving on a bumpy road.
A world unknown outside.
See a girl she’s trying to hide.
Then she is looking into my eyes straight.
I tried to look back but I’m too afraid.

Pre-Chorus One

I’m living my life at a fast pace.
Who’s left behind? I could see sadness in her face.
Do we care who’ll pay the price?
Open your eyes!

Chorus

We live a dangerous way.
One day we will be alone
In our golden cage.
No place for humanity.
When will we realize
Where we are?
What we’ve done?
I hope it’s not too late!

Verse Two

We’re so scared by all the news.
Can our fear be an excuse.
Saying no to all unknown.
You know we soon will be alone.
Behind these big walls
We can’t hear the calls!

Pre-Chorus Two

We’re living our life at a fast pace.
Who’s left behind? Those who can not join the race.
Do we care who’ll pay the price?
Open your eyes!

Chorus

Verse Three

Dancing on a high wire.
Under us the burning fire.
Moving on without respect.
There is so much to protect.
Will this be our Paradise?
Open your eyes!

Chorus
