There is a little angel This angel is stuck Her body isn't right But its something she can't fight She sees things through a one way mirror She sees out, but they don't see in This angel just wants to be free To spread her wings and touch the sun. But her wings are tied back They are bound by strings unknown She tries to break them, but it only hurts worse. This angel wears a mask One she can't take off It defines her When she looks in the mirror The reflection she sees Is not her own What she sees staring back at her Is a strange young man The boy is almost crying She sees the shell she is confined to Covered in scars and cuts Healing but never forgotten Why cant people see through the glass? Why can't this angel spread her wings? Why is this angel suffocating drowned in lies she spits from a mouth not hers No one knows who she is They call her by names that aren't right She and her not he and him She pounds on the glass of her body It never shatters The thin lines get wider every time she strikes But they still don't break Escape is so close but so far away For you see, this angel was born in a cage A cage called a boy.
