Lyrics of Heart in a Cage by The Strokes
verse
Well, I don't feel better when I'm fucking around
And I don't write better when I'm stuck in the ground
So, don't teach me a lesson 'cause I've already learned
Yeah, the sun will be shining, and my children will burn
chorus
Oh, the heart beats in its cage
verse
I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See, I'm stuck in a city
But I belong in a field
pre-chorus
Yeah, we got left, left, left
Left, left, left, left
Now, it's three in the morning
And you're eating alone
chorus
Oh, the heart beats in its cage
bridge
All our friends, they're laughing at us
All of those you loved, you mistrust
Help me, I'm just not quite myself
Look around, there's no one else left
verse
I went to the concert, and I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
pre-chorus
Oh, he gets left, left, left
Left, left, left, left
And I'm sorry you were thinking
I would steal your fire
chorus
Oh, the heart beats in its cage
Yes, the heart beats in its cage
Alright
outro
And the heart beats in its cage
