Lyrics
What was I to do?
What was I to do?
I just can't find the time
That your lookin for
and I, I tried to help you
But you walked out that slamming door
and I....Yeah...Gave you everything
Like the sun in the sky
and I,...Yeah...Gave you everything
You took my soul, yeah
You took my pride
I will never fall in your trap again
You'll never catch me again
I wasn't meant for a cage
What was I to do?
What was I to do?
And you keep pushing and pushing
until there was no room left in my head
your keep on pushin and pushin
until I was almost dead
and I....Yeah...Gave you everything
Like the sun in the sky
and I,...Yeah...Gave you everything
You took my soul, yeah
You took my pride
I will never fall in your trap again
You'll never catch me again
I wasn't meant for a cage
What was I to do?
What was I to do?
I wasn't meant for a cage
I wasn't meant for a cage
