[Verse 1]
So frail like a dying bird
So afraid
So pale like a ghost in the wind
Blowing away

[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to find you
Someone carefully kind
Someone strong enough to hold you
Someone to provide
It'll cost you
And it's a high price to pay
It'll cost you
For a golden cage

[Verse 2]
So cold at the slightest touch
So afraid
Still yearning for a burning love
You kill the flame

[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to find you
Someone carefully kind
Someone strong enough to hold you
Someone to provide
It'll cost you
And it's a high price to pay
It'll cost you
For a golden cage
[Post-Chorus]
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world

[Chorus]
Waiting for someone to find you
Someone carefully kind
Someone strong enough to hold you
Someone to provide
It'll cost you
And it's a high price to pay
It'll cost you
For a golden cage

[Post-Chorus]
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
No, it's not a perfect world
It's not a perfect world
No, it's not a perfect world
