lyrics

I know why you wrong me like you do
I know what you want me to sing for you

I'm a bird in a cage
And I can't seem to escape
I'm bound by your bars

I've looked hard but I can't find
A way to ease my worried mind
Still many men meet desperate ends
Without a hint of understanding

Say there's one bar you found
But in truth they're all around
I'm bound by your bars

Everybody says I'm making it up but I know I'm not
That awful creeping double bind's not hard to find
When I look around at all I've learned
I see it I see it

I know they're around me and I know you've bound me

I'm a bird in a cage
And I can't seem to escape
I'm bound
I'm bound
I'm bound by your bars
