(Hinkel / Wissler) What does it take to stand for my pride in a building of glass But I'm still throwing stones inside Man in a cage A perfect place of perfect isolation A heart full of pain A door that leads to desperation How could I forget we keep on playing different games And I exit the stage feeling like a puppet retired from the hands of fate Why do I hesitate Why can't I break free And why do I still believe this cage was made for you and me What does it take to live a life of perfect isolation And what will remain on the road to desperation How could I pretend this life was only made for me and nobody else Steppin' in my cage to free me from my chains Why do I hesitate Why can't I break free And why do I still believe this cage was made for you and me It's made for you and me Man in a cage I'm livin' in my room Why won't you see that I'm engaged
