lyrics

You tied the knot too tight
To keep your bird from flight
But you were wrong 'cos she's too strong
To go down without a fight

You watch for her to slip
You tighten up your grip
You curse her name she wears the blame
And the bruises on her lips

She dreams of better days
You say you'll change your ways
But you don't change a thing
And your caged bird never sings

Cos she could not pretend
That you're her only friend
You grab the knife she's yours for life
And this is how it ends

Is this what you call love
The hand inside the glove
It started with a kiss
And it ended with a fist

Cos she could not pretend
That you're her only friend
You grab the knife she's yours for life
And this is how it ends
