Birds With No Cage (No Watcher's Eye)

[Intro] [Verse 1] We don't owe them a single word Not a smile, not a look, not a sound They're just noise that we never heard Just the wind as it circles round [Pre Chorus] Let the cameras turn to empty walls Let the whispers fill their empty halls [Chorus] We are birds with no cage to mind No watcher's eye, no borrowed shame We cut the string they thought they'd find And flew before they knew our name [Verse 2] They built a box out of other people's doubt Hung it up like a frame on their wall But we were already moving out Before they finished drawing the hall [Pre Chorus] Let the mirrors crack on what they see Let them measure air and call it me [Chorus] We are birds with no cage to mind No watcher's eye, no borrowed shame We cut the string they thought they'd find And flew before they knew our name [Bridge] They watched the door We left through the roof They counted the cost We never kept proof Let them talk to the glass Let them talk to the floor We were gone from that story Long before [Final Chorus] We are birds with no cage to mind No watcher's eye, no borrowed shame We cut the string they thought they'd find And flew before they knew our name [Outro] No watcher's eye No borrowed shame We flew Before they knew our name [End]
