Straw Cage

Lyin' in bed, it's a Saturday
So hard to feel
Cold sheets stuffed between my legs
This time it's real
Oh, what have I done?
Babe, I was wrong
What time did you leave last night?
Where did you go? Where did you stay?
Here in the morning light
Is it gone or just time away?
I know I was wrong
Hey, I know I was wrong
Oh, the things I said but didn't mean
I was outside myself, it wasn't me
How to make you believe?
I know I was wrong
Stare at the food on my plate
And lose track of time, where's the sun?
I'd call and I'd find those words to say
But I'm afraid they're already gone
Babe, I was wrong
Hey, you're already gone
Oh, the things I said but didn't mean
I was outside myself, it wasn't me
How to make you believe?
I know I was wrong
I know I was wrong
