This cage is full of birds
And this house is full of worms
The turtle and the swallow
This is roaring like the sea
Everyone's dealt falsely
From the prophet to the priest
And the kids are changing channels
From the famine to the feast
And it shakes you down
This place it breaks you down
And it shakes you down
Well there's dung upon the ground
And there's buildings made with hands
Wild figs that can't be eaten
And religous men in gowns
Horses rushing into battle
Can the leopard change his spots?
And it shakes you down
This place it breaks you down
It's just your point of view
Shrug it off like you always do
Today bound in chains
Just like the anchor of your soul
He's got no will, he's got to fight
This cage is full of birds
And this house is full of worms
And kids are changing channels
From the famine to the feast
And it shakes you down
This place it breaks you down
It's just your point of view
Shrug it off like you always do
Today bound in chains
Just like the anchor of your soul
