Pacing the Cage Lyrics

	Lyrics：Bruce Cockburn Music：Bruce Cockburn
	Sunset is an angel weeping
	Holding out a bloody sword
	No matter how I squint I cannot
	Make out what it's pointing toward
	Sometimes you feel like you've lived too long
	Days drip slowly on the page
	And You catch yourself
	Pacing the cage
	I've proven who I am so many times
	The magnetic strip's worn thin
	And each time I was someone else
	And everyone was taken in
	Powers chatter in high places
	Stir up eddies in the dust of rage
	Set me to pacing the cage
	I never knew what you all wanted
	So I gave you everything
	All that I could pillage
	All the spells that I could sing
	It's as if the thing were written
	In the constitution of the age
	Sooner or later you'll wind up
	Pacing the cage
	Sometimes the best map will not guide you
	You can't see what's round the bend
	Sometimes the road leads through dark places
	Sometimes the darkness is your friend
	Today these eyes scan bleached-out land
	For the coming of the outbound stage
	Pacing the cage
	Pacing the cage

	Sunset is an angel weeping
	Holding out a bloody sword
	No matter how I squint I cannot
	Make out what it' s pointing toward
	Sometimes you feel like you' ve lived too long
	Days drip slowly on the page
	And You catch yourself
	Pacing the cage
	I' ve proven who I am so many times
	The magnetic strip' s worn thin
	And each time I was someone else
	And everyone was taken in
	Powers chatter in high places
	Stir up eddies in the dust of rage
	Set me to pacing the cage
	I never knew what you all wanted
	So I gave you everything
	All that I could pillage
	All the spells that I could sing
	It' s as if the thing were written
	In the constitution of the age
	Sooner or later you' ll wind up
	Pacing the cage
	Sometimes the best map will not guide you
	You can' t see what' s round the bend
	Sometimes the road leads through dark places
	Sometimes the darkness is your friend
	Today these eyes scan bleachedout land
	For the coming of the outbound stage
	Pacing the cage
	Pacing the cage
