Caged Bird Songs - Nickels lyrics

I'm not getting up. I'm not pushing back at all. And you're not here to tell me otherwise anymore. So I'll permit your ghost to raid around my head and I disappoint. It's all I can do anymore. Better men than me have been falling down and into early graves. No, I'm not okay. Just been thinking about yesterdays. And no, I'm not okay, though I know that you'd say that I have no excuse to stay down when it's all I want. Hide out someplace safe and warm. It's hard as hell to get back up when there's nothing left. But you'd say I don't deserve to sit and waste these days or build constraints.
