Craving Something Different

These days I feel like a bird in a cage
I smile so sweetly to cover up my rage
I bought the fable, what a woman should be
I was there right beside you, to give you what you need
Chorus
now I'm tired of pretending,
and hiding from the truth
I'm craving something different babe
and I don't think it's you

it seems like a hundred years, since you took my hand
all my dreams are buried under your grander plans
I lost touch of the innocence, in the heart of a girl
who would lie awake and plan her attack on the world
chorus
bridge
I'm craving something different I can feel it on the wind,
I need to go where it's blowing, forget where I have been
Don't mean to sound accusing, it was me who was wrong
to carry on this masquerade of deception so long
yeah, yeah

I'm gonna leave now,you can say my good-byes
tell every body anything, fabricate a lie
I'm off to be a poet, or the singer in a band
or maybe just a vagabond, travelin' on this land

I'm just so tired of pretending, and hiding from the truth
I'm cravin' something different babe, and I don't think it's you
