Caged Bird

Take some time

Try to cleanse you from my mind

It takes time, darlin', time

Time, teach a caged bird how to fly

It takes time, darlin', time

In the starlights, so blue

Remember evenin's so yellow

I no longer dream of you

But your shirt's still in my dresser

Been in the studio

I've been walkin' through the jungle

When the wind cries out for you

And it sound like synth and cello

Kind of feels like birds in cages

When you break the locks

I can leave from where you want me at

But I'd rather not

So, I drop the top, and I float on

Stereo blowin' like Gohan

Every damn day I drove home

Thinkin' 'bout you until the road's gone

Take some time

Try to cleanse you from my mind

It takes time, darlin', time

Time, teach a caged bird how to fly

It takes time, darlin', time

Take some time

Try to cleanse you from my mind

It takes time, darlin', time

Time, teach a caged bird how to fly

It takes time, darlin', time

And as for my feelin's for you

Envelope them in titanium

And they can't get through

Can't bother me with trivialities

And if they ever flew

They won't go anywhere

Those metal walls, yeah, they bite back

And I watch his feathers tear

'Cause she could play a **** like it was a game of chess

I should know

And I was walkin' on a wire

Thinkin' I was blessed

Till it broke

I know they say that grass is greener on the other side

That's a lie

Forget the, "Let's be friends", girl

I'ma need to take some time

Take some time

Try to cleanse you from my mind

It takes time, darlin', time

Time, teach a caged bird how to fly

It takes time, darlin', time

Take some time

Try to cleanse you from my mind

It takes time, it takes time

Time, every caged bird wanna fly

It takes time, darlin', time

Wait on me, wait on me, wait on me

I'ma have to wait n me, wait on me, wait on me

Got a lotta weight on me, weight on me, weight on me

I'ma have to wait n me, wait on me, wait on me
