Little flame, Flickering bright. Trapped in your birdcage shaped prison, Beating against the bars, Trying to be free. Needing to blaze brght, Dreaming of fighting, Flitting in place, Burning in, Fading out. Your captors try to contain you, Burn you out and train you, But you have a strength they can't take away, A hope, A desire, The dream that you will one day fly. Burn through your bars, Blaze bright, Fly away.

Little flame, Flickering bright. Trapped in your birdcage shaped prison, Beating against the bars, Trying to be free. Needing to blaze brght, Dreaming of fighting, Flitting in place, Burning in, Fading out.

Burn through your bars, Blaze bright, Fly away.
