"Caged Bird" lyrics

"Caged Bird"

You switched the glasses on me
From my own cup, the poison I drink
If you're so unhappy, then I'll set you free
I always figured you'd go

So I loosen the latches and slipped you the key
It's not your concern now what happens to me
I just hope that you'll land somewhere soft and so sweet
And you'll find everything that I couldn't be

Maybe some day, I'll be better off without you
But right now, I can't picture waking up tomorrow
It wasn't my time with you
It wasn't my time with you

You had your reasons, had mine too
But I would've never left you alone

I wrote you a record and threw it away
The whole thing felt like a buzzkill
Plus, you already know how you broke my heart
It's all good though
