[00:20.61] They say there's an underground river,
[00:23.05]
[00:24.16] That none of us can see,
[00:25.85]
[00:27.79] And it flows through winding tunnels,
[00:29.78]
[00:31.59] On its way to a tide-less sea.
[00:33.52]
[00:35.15] And across that sea is an island,
[00:37.09]
[00:38.20] A paradise we are told,
[00:41.20]
[00:42.63] Where the toils of life are forgotten,
[00:44.69]
[00:46.32] And they call it the Island of Souls.
[00:48.19]
[00:50.31] For only a soul can go there,
[00:52.25]
[00:53.75] A soul that's been set free,
[00:56.11]
[00:57.48] From the confines of a working life,
[00:59.42]
[01:01.29] To find eternity.
[01:02.48]
[01:04.52] Your old man had a cage for his pigeons,
[01:06.52]
[01:08.21] But that's really where he kept his soul,
[01:09.76]
[01:11.82] And when he watched them fly he would see himself,
[01:14.44]
[01:16.25] Least that's how it was told.
[01:17.44]
[01:19.37] But his soul was still trapped in the cage son,
[01:22.24]
[01:23.05] While the birds they soared to the sky,
[01:25.56]
[01:29.36] But he couldn't find his own way out,
[01:31.04]
[01:32.79] Least not 'til the day he died.
[01:34.54]
[01:36.03] Oh, a man builds a cage with the tools he is given,
[01:38.84]
[01:39.65] His casket is sealed with a riveter's gun,
[01:42.28]
[01:43.52] This solitary madness is where he is driven,
[01:45.96]
[01:47.14] It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son,
[01:50.32]
[01:52.69] It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
[01:56.12]
[02:01.87] I know that he loved you, but he hadn't the words,
[02:04.92]
[02:05.99] He'd be easier speaking the language of birds,
[02:08.73]
[02:09.60] For to speak of emotion, it just wasn't done,
[02:12.29]
[02:12.97] It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son,
[02:16.47]
[02:18.72] It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
[02:22.46]
[02:24.08] A man builds a cage with the tools he is given,
[02:27.32]
[02:27.89] His casket is sealed with a riveter's gun,
[02:30.57]
[02:31.69] The solitary madness is where he is driven,
[02:34.25]
[02:35.25] It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son,
[02:38.50]
[02:40.80] It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
