Open the cage of a bird,
and the bird will fly away.
Open the cage of my heart,
and my heart with me will stay.

My heart is loyal,
my heart is true;
I will not give
my heart to you.

Like a bird
you left me in pain;
I doubt that I
can love again.

I learned to love,
I learned to trust,
I learned to forget;
I simply must

never remember
the things that you said;
I pray every morning
that you wake up dead.

I sob and I cry,
I screech and I scream
that I will wake up
from this horrible dream.

I open my eyes
and I look around:
you in my bed,
your clothes on the ground.

I know that this might
be hard to find true:
You left me in pain,
but i still love you.
