Lyrics of 'The Cage (Breaking the Paradigms)' by Diabolus Alma Mater

I'm a bird
You are a bird
Together we are locked inside
This Cage of pain

We try to sing
We try to fly
But the Cage
Traps our lives

I'm lost inside my dreams
The bird that cannot fly
Inside this Cage I'm the Cage
I have the key but I'm lost in pain!

Inside our mind
There's an empty space
There's no certainty
So we got afraid

We built a cage
To safely live in there
We put our dogmas inside
Calling them "Identity"

So many Lies we face
In our creation
And it becomes
Our reality

We follow blindly
The path they chose for us
Cause it's more safer than
Fly with our own wings

We trade
The right to think and choose
For comfortable Paradigms

" In a place far away from reality
A maid takes me into a beautiful garden
Where in despair I fall on my knees
When she showed me a grave with your name (written on it) "

"Legendary forever" I wanted to write (on it)
But something tells me to not intervene
Day after day I watched you dying
Inside of me (and the Mourning for your Absence has transformed in the End)

(Today) I am glad to have met you
And lived at your side
Let my tears water your flowers
Cause inside my heart you finally rest in peace

The things we faced in our past
Have left us with scars!
Playing inside our minds
Building our prejudgements

Afraid of being hurted
We just suffocate our feelings
Afraid to change ourselves
We proclaim: "I'm always right"

And now is the time
To break the paradigms
A new world inside
Unlocked inside your mind

Remove the veil

Decode the Cage

To see our mistakes

Cause there's no Moon... (there's) no more leaves, there's no tree!

I try to understand
How the end became the beginning
And how we sold our love
To purchase separate cages

The Centaur... The Valkyrie
Are riding in different directions
Their warm kingdom became
A place of empty coldness

I opened the Cage
I faced my paradigms
I can't leave without you
But I guess it's too late

" This is the pain
For not find answers
In an empty space
I can hear your voice
Echoing in my mind

Frustration comes
Because our names are together forever
But not our hearts

Inside this Cage
I blame myself for my Past Mistakes... "
