The Strokes - Heart in a Cage lyrics

Well, I don't feel better
When I'm fucking around
And I don't write better when
I'm stuck in the ground
So don't teach me a lesson
'cause I've already learned
Yeah, the sun will be shining
And my children will burn

Oh, the heart beats in it's cage

I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See, I'm stuck in a city but
I belong in a field yeah, we got left, left
Left, left, left, left, left
Now it's three in the morning
And you're eating alone

Oh, the heart beats in it's cage



All our friends, they're laughing at us
All of those you loved, you mistrust
Help me, I'm just not quite myself
Look around, there's no one else left

I went to the concert and
I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when
I thought you were around
Oh, he gets left, left
Left, left, left, left, left
And I'm sorry you were thinking
I would steal your fire

Oh, the heart beats in it's cage
Yes, the heart beats in it's cage

And the heart beats in it's cage
