Intro Step out step out of our cages Out of our cages out of our cages step out verse 1 I like the look of your place yes I love your construction Did you carve the wee key from the soap in your kitchen To turn in a lock of your own penal fiction? You?re so good at freein? your imagination Step out-- step out of our cages Step ah-ah-out of our paper cages Step ah-ah-out step out of our cages We?re living our lives in paper cages verse 2 When you took on your bid did you make up your number? Did you walk like a punk to the screws at your counter? Did you say you can?t win but you are the system That contains in paper cages Step out-- step out of our cages Step ah-ah-out of our paper cages Step ah-ah-out step out of our cages We?re living our lives in paper cages Bridge Living our lives in paper cages Living our lives in paper cages Living our lives in paper cages Outro Step out-- step out of our cages Step ah-ah-out of our paper cages Step ah-ah-out step out of our cages We?re living our lives in paper cages Step ah-out Guitar 1 e|------5-------5\------5-------5\---|------3-------3\------3-------3--|------6-------6\------6-------6\--| B|------6-------6\------6-------6\---|------3-------3\------3-------3--|------6-------6\------6-------6\--| G|------7-------7\------7-------7\---|------3-------3\------3-------3--|------7-------7\------7-------7\--| D|------7-------7\------7-------7\---|------5-------5\------5-------5--|------8-------8\------8-------8\--| A|--5---------5-----5---------5------|---------------------------------|----------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------|--3---------3-----3---------3----|--6---------6-------6-------6-----| Guitar 2 e|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------|----------------------------------| B|----6-6-------------6-6---------6--|----6-6-------------6-6----------|--------------------8-8-8-8-------| G|----7-7-5-7-5-7-----7-7-5-7-5-7----|----7-7-5-7-5-7-----7-7-5-7-5-7--|--5--7-7---7-5-7------------7-7---| D|--0---------------0----------------|--3---------------3--------------|----------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------|----------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------|----------------------------------| . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Cette chanson évoque le désir de sortir des limitations imposées par la société et de se libérer des contraintes personnelles. L'artiste interpelle son interlocuteur sur la notion de liberté, en questionnant les constructions mentales qui nous enferment, comme si l'on vivait dans des cages en papier, fragiles et illusoires. Il souligne la créativité nécessaire pour briser ces entraves et tente de convaincre que même si les systèmes nous semblent oppressifs, il est encore possible de se tourner vers une existence plus authentique. Le message résonne particulièrement dans un contexte actuel où beaucoup se sentent piégés par des normes sociales ou des attentes. L'idée de s'émanciper et de cultiver son imagination apparaît comme une voie pour retrouver sa véritable essence.
