Parrot Cage (Acoustic Demo)There was a time when I was young and brave and wild Nothing could ever make my heart despair And I followed the path, dreamed all day, dreams of a child when I realised I could not get there Sometimes it seems we're heading for the things we just can't touch It makes us scream, crawl, baby work in vain And I guess that someone's just dragging away what we want so much keeping us on the ground where we're supposed to stay now I don't want to fade away But I'm trapped inside a parrot cage with no way of getting out The one life that I've got to save is a treasure yet to be found and everytime I hear the answer calling I gotta watch it falling down I know that I can find the truth but I don't think that I want to Cause there's things out there I won't like at all Yeah the window of the world just gives a tiny little view of the part in the game and the unbreaking wall and there's not a single day when I don't dream that I could just float away, spread my wings and fly But I'm trapped inside a parrot cage with no way of getting out The one life that I've got to save is a treasure yet to be found When I'm looking for the light then in the end I always find it's left town I remember the nights that would never end I remember the days that seemed so completely spent I can't deny I've slapped my face to know if I'm still alive When the time is right to say what there's to say I'll just close my mind and look the other way I was trapped inside a parrot cage With no way of getting out But the one love that I've got to embrace Is the treasure finally found Yeah I'll leave this land forever And I know I'll never turn round |
Diese Demoversion hab ich ein paar Tage nachdem das Lied fertig war
aufgenommen. Ihr werdet allerdings bemerken, dass sie den Mittelteil
noch nicht enthält. Der war nämlich zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme noch
nicht geplant. Beim Probieren mit der Band hab ich dann gefunden, dass
man in der Mitte des Liedes noch etwas Kreatives (insbesondere für den
Übergang zum Solo) hineinbringen müsste. Also hab ich den Mittelteil
dann nachträglich dazugeschrieben. |
