Cage
Unraveling Emotions: Cooks & Bakers' Captivating Tale
Lyrics
We don’t talk as much as we used to
We communicate less frequently than before.
But we still act in love like we used to
Our actions still reflect the love we once had.
Like we used to be
Referencing the past when the relationship was different.
And maybe you were unfaithful, or insatiably un-relatable
Suggesting the possibility of unfaithfulness or being emotionally distant.
But you don’t believe that’s reasonable
You deny the validity of these claims.
Though plain to see
Despite being evident or obvious.
I don’t sleep as much as I used to
I struggle with sleep compared to the past.
And we don’t get fucked up like we used to, like we used to be
We no longer indulge in substances as we did before.
And maybe I was unstable
Suggesting personal instability.
Or emotionally Un-available
Or being emotionally unavailable.
But you don’t believe that that's feasable
You find it hard to believe these claims about me.
For even me
Even considering my perspective.
So lock me in my cage before you go
Metaphorically, confine me before leaving.
And throw away the chains before scars show
Remove the restraints before the emotional scars become visible.
Take it all, it all, it all
Take everything from me before departing.
Take it all before you go
Reinforcing the idea of taking everything before leaving.
So how the fuck could I ever trust you
Expressing difficulty in trusting due to hidden emotions.
When you keep all the words that I run too, under your sleeve
You keep secrets that I turn to for support.
And maybe I was ungrateful, before my ignorance turned me shameful
Reflecting on past ingratitude and subsequent shame.
But you don’t believe it’s reasonable, though plain to see
You don't find it reasonable despite its obviousness.
So lock me in my cage before you go
Repetition of the metaphorical plea to be confined.
And throw away the chains before scars show
Reiterate the need to discard restraints before visible damage.
Take it all, it all, it all
Emphasizing the request to take everything before departing.
Take it all before you go
Reinforcing the idea of taking everything before leaving.
So lock me in my cage before you go
Repetition of the metaphorical plea to be confined.
And throw away the chains before scars show
Reiterate the need to discard restraints before visible damage.
Take it all, it all, it all
Emphasizing the request to take everything before departing.
Take it all before you go
Reinforcing the idea of taking everything before leaving.
