Pacing The Cage Lyrics |
||
 by: Bruce Cockburn Sunset is an angel weeping Holding out a bloody sword No matter how I squint I cannot Make out what it`s pointing toward Sometimes you feel like you`ve lived too long Days drip slowly on the page And You catch yourself Pacing the cage I`ve proven who I am so many times The magnetic strip`s worn thin And each time I was someone else And everyone was taken in Powers chatter in high places Stir up eddies in the dust of rage Set me to pacing the cage I never knew what you all wanted So I gave you everything All that I could pillage All the spells that I could sing It`s as if the thing were written In the constitution of the age Sooner or later you`ll wind up Pacing the cage Sometimes the best map will not guide you You can`t see what`s round the bend Sometimes the road leads through dark places Sometimes the darkness is your friend Today these eyes scan bleached-out land For the coming of the outbound stage Pacing the cage Pacing the cage |
