A Crook and a Cage

I've grown tired, I've grown tired
I'm no child, no I've seen miles and miles

But is this it?
You just sit at the top of your porch, look down, say everyone's wrong
Get some grip, don't let your love slip
Cause when it pains it strains every man you lean on

Take one look, do you see me lying?
Just some crook in a cage of diamond
What would you do?
Read your books, tell me I'm not trying
Didn't decide on what I'm relying
It's all for you
It's all for you

I've gone blind, stared straight into your light
Lost my mind, I lost my mind, lost my mind for you

But is this it?
You just sit at the top of your porch, look down, say everyone's wrong
Get some grip, don't let your love drip
Cause when it drains it stains every man you try on

And you question my intention with your gun in your hand
But if you shoot down all my demons I'm still just a man
Don't you feel me? Don't you see me?

Take one look, don't you see it's dying?
Just two crooks in a cage of diamond
What should we do? Oh lord, what should we do?
Read your books, tell me I'm not trying
Didn't decide on what I'm relying
It's all for you
It's all for you
It's all for you, baby
It's all for you, baby
