Disguise (1980)

What you see outside 
often is disguise 
for unhappiness within 
dejection , maybe pride 
See if you are wise 
enough to see the lies 
Steel bars upon the cage 
house a frightened bird 
or maybe Lions rage 
Understanding our emotion 
to which some subject devotion 
the bird manages to escape 
by chance it's lonely encounters 
wistful wishing freedoms flight 
from the cage it has made 
Carefulness is what it takes 
gently hardened spirit breaks 
Melting down these hollow bars 
See what hides inside 
could be fires could be stars 
could be human pride
