[1996]
A cage of being(1-31-96, 2:44pm)

I walk through crowded people
Amongst a cage of rats
People just like me and in parts
Not quit a like.

Walking on the mounds of life
Going from path to path
Wondering if any of these look-a-likes
See right through.

Do they know me ohh so well?
Can they tell all there is to tell?
Where is that one true look-a-like
That I will be falling for?

I sit at night and think real hard
It doesn't take me very far.
I wonder if I'll ever find
The girl I will be falling for.

I do not know quit what I want
I hope that will come with time
I want to be with someone
I want to be alone
But either way I'll find it all
When what needs to be done is done

I feel as if though cat's revenge
Stalking me day and night
I do not quit understand
All that is called my life.

I know I'll learn it all someday
My quest for knowledge found
All my questions answered in my head
And then of course I'll be dead.

I want, I need, I'd really like
To be freed from my cage
To live a life, no one else's life
Without the worry of praise.

Free me, free me
Let me go
Where I'll go
Just no one knows
Until this fate decides to show
I need not worry what problems may grow.
