Lyrics In the Cage (Live) - Genesis
I
got
sunshine
in
my
stomach
like
i
just
rocked
my
baby
to
sleep.
i
got
sunshine
in
my
stomach
but
i
can't
keep
me
from
creeping
sleep,
sleep,
deep
in
the
deep.
he
wakes
in
a
cold
sweat
with
a
strong
urge
to
vomit.
there's
no
sign
of
the
cocoon
and
he
can
see
more
of
the
cave
about
him.
there
is
much
more
of
the
glowing
water
dripping
from
the
roof
and
stalactites
and
stalagmites
are
forming
and
decomposing
at
an
alarming
rate
all
around
him.

must
tell
myself
that
i'm
not
here.
i'm
drowning
in
a
liquid
fear.
bottled
in
a
strong
compression,
my
distortion
shows
obsession
in
the
cave.
get
me
out
of
this
cave!
as
fear
and
shock
register,
he
assures
himself
that
self-control
will
provide
some
security,
but
this
thought
is
abandoned
as
the
stalactites
and
stalagmites
lock
into
a
fixed
position,
forming
a
cage
whose
bars
are
moving
in
towards
him.
if
i
keep
my
self-control,
i'll
be
safe
in
my
soul.
and
the
childhood
belief
brings
a
moment's
relief,
but
my
cynic
soon
returns
and
the
lifeboat
burns.

spirit
just
never

in,

in

costume

body
stretching,
feel
the
wretching
in
the
cage
get
me
out
of
the
cage!
at
one
moment
there
is
a
flash
of
light
and
he
sees
an
infinite
network
of
cages
all
strung
together
by
a
ropelike
material.
in
the
glare
of
a
light,
i
see
a
strange
kind
of
sight;
of
cages
joined
to
form
a
star
each
person
can't
go
very
far;
all
tied
to
their
things
they're
netted
by
their
strings,
free
to
flutter
in
memories
of
their
wasted
wings.
as
the
rocky
bars
press
in
on
rael's
body,
he
sees
his
brother
john
outside,
looking
in.
john's
face
is
motionless
despite
screams
for
help,
but
in
his
vacant
expression
a
tear
of
blood
forms
and
trickles
down
his
cheek.
then
he
calmly
walks
away
leaving
rael
to
face
the
pains
which
are
beginning
to
sweep
through
his
body.
outside
the
cage
i
see
my
brother
john,
he
turns
his
head
so
slowly
round.
i
cry
out
help!
before
he
can
be
gone,
and
he
looks
at
me
without
a
sound.
and
i
shout
out
'john
please
help
me!'
but
he
does
not
even
want
to
try
to
speak.
i'm
helpless
in
my
violent
rage
and
a
silent
tear
of
blood
dribbles
down
his
cheek,
and
i
watch
him
turn
away
and
leave
the
cage.
my
little
runaway.
(raindrops
keep
failing
on
my
head,
they
keep
falling
on
my...)
in
a
trap,
feel
a
strap
holding
still.

for
kill.

that
i'll
make
it,
in
the
cushioned
straight-jacket.

like

street,
they
got

by
my
neck
and

out

i
could

i
could

rocks.
i
know
that
i
am

and
i
am
my
own
bad
luck.
however,
just
as
john
walks
out
of
sight,
the
cage
dissolves
and
rael
is
left
spinning
like
a
top.
outside
john
disappears,
my
cage
dissolves,
without
any
reason
my
body
revolves.
