I am the bird locked in your cage
I am the bug trapped in your jar
I am the fish swimming in your tank
I am the fly inside your car
I am a dog tied to a tree
I am a prisoner in chains
I have lost my sanity
Tied to a bedpost with restraints
Let your body float to the surface
I can pretend that I'm dead
I can say that I have lived
I am the question you won't ask
I am the last thing on your mind
I am the ghost left in your past
I am the treasure you won't find
I sing the song stuck in your head
Yet you still take away my breath
I am in the ghost under your bed
Yet my heart beats inside my chest
You don't have to say goodbye
Promise me you'll ask them why
