16 Oz Cage

Rain falls just as qick as the tears
it still hurts, the pain of the years
But I still hold so much hope
that one day we'll be able to cope
With all the wrongs that need to be right
that soon there will be no reason to fight
No reason to yell out and place blame
just to cover up the shame
I try so hard to ease the rage
that imprisons you in a 16 oz cage
But it's hard to "be good" all day
just to be sure you get your way
I cry because it hurts inside
you find me where ever I hide
But YOU  always want to be left alone
you bury your heart so it won't be shown
While I'm the one who's left to wait
for you to decide to let go of the hate
But when good times see their way through
is when I think i can't live with out you
All the bad feelings are pushed away
to try to start a brand new day
Maybe once you will be with out doubt
so you won't have a reason to shout
I want to be rid of this fear inside
it won't go away, even when I close my eyes
