My Cage "Classic" 08/23/2008

A Hot Topic buyer once approached Melissa and me saying if 'My Cage' was in more paper maybe they could try something with it. We told our then editor and he said "If we could get it in more papers we would've already". 

Originally run Aug 23rd 2008.

My Cage "Classic" 08/23/2008

Well I stood stone-like at midnight Suspended in my masquerade I combed my hair 'til it was just right And commanded the night brigade I was open to pain and crossed by the rain And I walked on a crooked crutch I strolled all alone through a fallout zone And came out with my soul untouched [Chorus] I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd But when they said, "Sit down," I stood up Ooh, ooh, growin' up --Bruce Springsteen

Ah. Yes it is a uniform but it always was a uniform it does not become one. You are using it to signal an identity not so much rebellion although it’s there. The line that comes to my mind is from the wild one “What are you rebelling against?” “Whaddya got?” Its not part and parcel of the search for identity we go through. And it’s sad and it’s lost but well that’s what growing up can feel like at and the uniform can signal that at least.
