What you see is what you are
What you dream is what you'll be
Or so you hope, so you think.
Ain't that true?
All the time you've been around
And you have looked right through this glass,
Have you ever wondered:
Is this real?
You pray your God,
You pray your soul, you pray your life
For a chance, for a peek through this cage.
You shake at night,
Your hands ain't free, you try to hold on but you hear
The restless crowd screaming: "I've got something to say".

And if they only could shut up
You'd put a trademark on your shyness,
leave for somewhere quieter,
Or not?
The sky is open, the sky is wide
But there is something you can't hide:
There's no challenge you could throw
At the sun.
You pray your God,
You pray your soul, you pray your life
For a chance, for a peek through this cage.
You shake at night,
Your hands ain't free, you try to hold on but you hear
The restless crowd screaming: "You must have something to say".
And if they only could shut up
You'd let them know their cage is locked
And as for yours, the key is
In your hands
