Caged

"Caged" takes viewers into the world of young people growing up in small town Louisiana, following a group of friends who are finding their way in the world after high school graduation as they struggle to make something of their lives and break out of the metaphorical cage they've found themselves in. This weekly documentary series will take an honest look into the world of young amateur MMA fighters, both inside and outside of the cage. One is dealing with his lost love, another tries to balance his young family and fighting, and another just yearns to make his family proud. It's impossible for them to leave these issues outside of the ring, and each week, viewers will see how their personal lives and choices affect their chances inside the cage. For these modern day gladiators, every day is a fight to break free from the past, and to find their future. It's their chance to turn their lives around, and an opportunity to stand up and fight to make something of themselves. "Caged" is executive produced by Joke Fincioen and Biagio Messina of Joke Productions. Dave Sirulnick and Amy Bailey are executive producers for MTV. The series is from MTV's award-winning News and Docs department.

No no, no no no no
You're never never never going to let me go
You say I'm your possession
You say I'm your toy
You're gonna teach me a lesson
That I won't enjoy
I need to break free
You suffocate me
I'm in pain
I want to break out
I've got to escape these chains
You want all my love
So I've got none to spare
You drain all my resources
And you leave my heart bare
I'm eternally yours
I'm forever engaged
I'm caged
In a prison of love
I'm a tiger enraged
I'm caged
Let me out
No no, no no no no
You're never never never gonna let me go
You smother my will
To make me behave
I'm drugged on your love
To make me your slave
You love with a passion
But I'm swallowed by your desire
Your love is so hot
But I don't want to burn in the fire
You've got me tied in a tender rage
Like a captive dancer in a gilded cage
You feed me love on a silver spoon
With a leather glove by the light of the moon
For your pleasure
For your show
You're never never never gonna let me go
No no, no no no no
You're never never never gonna let me go
You think that I'll stray
So you'll never trust me
You tempt me each day
But I'll never be free
I'm eternally yours
I'm forever engaged
I'm caged
In a prison of love
I'm a tiger enraged
I'm caged

These are the darkest clouds
To have surrounded me
Now I find my self alone caught in a cage
There's no flower to be found in here
Not withering
Or pale to me
Everyone with a friendly face
Seems to hide some secret inside
He told me he loved me
While he laughed in my face
He just led me astray
He took my virtue
I feel so cold inside
Sorrow has frozen my mind
My heart is covered
With thoughts entangled
How could it ever have felt so real
Is there a place more lonely than I feel within
Could I have seen
Could I have known
I just took it as the truth
Everyone with a friendly face
Seems to hide some secret inside
Always there to remind me
To keep me from believing
That someone might be there

Shadows start to creep all over,
Engulfing me in a gray mist.
I fight for air in this suffocation.
Gasping and gulping, my lungs start to close.
Suddenly I awake lying on a bed of satin petals,
Which start to drown me.
Kicking and screaming I rise up to breathe
And find myself pushed back down to drown.
Barriers at every turn I make.
There’s no one to release me from this cage.
Coughing and wheezing, bleeding,
I extend my hand to you.
All I ask is for you to save me, to give me life again.
Yet all I see is your back to me.
No more dreams.
I am sinking.
Struggling to boost myself for one last breath of air,
But you’re not there.

We bathe in a high tech glory,
Trapped in your own company.
Relive your short play story,
In games that weren’t enough for me.
There’s got to be more.
Your best friend’s full of numbers,
That don’t call but your always home.
Your right hand keeps you busy,
At night when you’re all alone.
The sounds of life keep slipping away,
It’s up to us to make them stay,

[Music: Hanner / Lyrics Wenngrenn]
The silence ends with a thunderclap
The sky turns black again
A roar from the sky
Makes the silence feel so wonderful
My eyes are open again
I can't see more than unclear (shadows)
Shadows that seem to follow my path
Lightning burn my eyes
A slumber, a silent and deeper sleep
The smell of rain
Burned by the lightning within
Unknown is this pain
The clouds lie silent like a cage
around what used to be
I can not reach the other side and
you can not reach me
The clouds lie silence like a cage
around what used to be
Stuck within this cube for all time,
from this place I can not flee
The whispers make me insane
I can not shut them out
No longer in control of my body
I close my eyes, dreams emerge
A new thunderclap awakens my mind
It is all like it used to be
I am trapped within my own imagination
Who has got the key to the gate?
A slumber, a silent and deeper sleep
The smell of rain
Burned by the lightning within
Unknown is this pain
The clouds lie silent like a cage
around what used to be
I can not reach the other side and
you can not reach me
The clouds lie silence like a cage
around what used to be
Stuck within this cube for all time,
from this place I can not flee
Slowly the clouds loosen their grip
I can see the other side
My dream end as many times before
Alone I stand again...
A slumber, a silent and deeper sleep
The smell of rain
Burned by the lightning within
Unknown is this pain
The clouds lie silent like a cage
around what used to be
I can not reach the other side and
you can not reach me
The clouds lie silence like a cage
around what used to be
Stuck within this cube for all time,

I don't want to live in a human world where my kind is
caged and locked out.
I have no use for human words, and I will swallow the
hate they brought out.
Come on bitch, give me the keys.
Yeah, I like you better on your knees.
We must come from different worlds.
Believe me boy, I take no orders.
I have no use for human words, always spoken to bring
disorder.
Come on bitch, give me the keys.
Yeah, I like you better on your knees.
Motherfucker, open this cage.
Maybe then I'll leave this place in one piece.
I've been pushed down in a den of small souls.

Your iron bars, can't hold me in, can't keep me here.
Your not so strong, without my strength, without my fear.
You can't hold on, once I break free, there'll be no tears.
Chorus
Can't you see the desire that's driving me
I can't be everything that you want, me to be
Now your crossing the line
Now your crossing the line.
Your strongest holds, the winkest link, what will you be
When I am gone, you'll realize, once I am free
What we have done, what we have dreamed, you'll set me free
Chorus
One day you'll realize the truth and take back all the things you said to me
and all your lies.
Chorus
Now I am gone, where are you now, so now you see
Your tightest grip, was not enough, now I am free
