[Verse 1]
Well, I heard you were the keeper of my bones
You took my heart
And you buried it somewhere in the backyard
And now I feel nothing beating in my chest
All I know is that they'll need a sheet
Just to cover up this mess
'Cause you showed up, the guns came out
And "All this blood is just a game to me"
I heard you scream and shout
And now I hope that you'll let me be
'Cause you were dancing on my grave
You were singing "R.I.P."

[Chorus]
And now I know
That you keep all your love in cages
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Now I know not to test your patience

[Verse 2]
Yeah, you promised me the devil I would meet
Yeah, you gave me my last warning
I've accepted my defeat
And there's no use in trying to love you anymore
You've built these walls around yourself
And you refused to build a door
And you're the judge, and you let me hang
Well, I was swinging from the mulberry tree
Only got myself to thank
And you can't lose when you've never won
So all this time we've spent together
Well, I guess it's finally done
[Chorus]
And now I know
That you keep all your love in cages
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Now I know not to test your patience
Ooh, ooh, ooh
That you keep all your love in cages
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Outro]
Don't you understand? This just isn't right
I took my chances and I rolled the dice
And now I've landed in a lover's homicide
This just isn't right
I took my chances and I rolled the dice
And now I've landed in a lover's homicide
