Lyrics for Pacing The Cage by JIMMY BUFFETT:
| | | Artist: | JIMMY BUFFETT |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Pacing The Cage | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 119 | | | | Lyrics: | 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
The days drip slowly on the page
And you catch yourself
Pacing the
cage
I've proved 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... | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
