1) Casey is a Wels… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists with the name "Casey":
1) Casey is a Welsh melodic hardcore band formed in South Wales, United Kingdom in 2014. The band formed shortly after vocalist Tom Weaver and guitarist Liam Torrance left previous projects, Continents and Hot Damn respectively.
Originally formed as a studio band under the name Well Wisher, Weaver and Torrance later recruited Toby Evans, Max Nicolai, and Scott Edwards, and began producing material with the intention of performing live. After a brief hiatus while Weaver auditioned to join the band Northlane, the name Well Wisher was dropped, and the band relaunched under the name Casey. The name is derived from both Weaver's love of the album Casey by The Rise of Science, and also Torrance's tribute to the late Hawthorne Heights guitarist, Casey Calvert.
On December 1st, 2018, the band released a statement explaining that they have decided to disband following a final UK/European tour and a one-off headline show in the US in 2019. Casey's music has been described as "packed to the rafters with emotionally charged guitar lines and captivating, heartfelt lyrics" and "mix of rhythmic atmosphere, spoken word, hardcore guitar and more into the tracks guaranteed to move you and tell you a vivid story.", leading to them being categorized as post-hardcore, melodic hardcore, hardcore punk, emotional hardcore, shoegaze and alternative rock.
In the years following Casey's disbandment, Smith formed the bands Asidhara and Mourn, which was with members of Continents and Wilderness, and released their debut single on August 5, 2021, while Nicolai and Torrance formed Exit Dream alongside vocalist Wesley Thompson, formerly of Napoleon and Climates, and session musician Rob Hawkins.
On December 1, 2022, the band announced that they had reformed and that they had booked five tour date in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe between January 12 and 20, 2023. After every one of the dates sold out, they announced on December 11 that had booked additional dates in London and Oberhausen and upgraded the date in Manchester. In a January 2023 interview with Clash magazine, Weaver explained the reunion came about when Torrence contacted him about reforming only days after his split from his fiancée, which Torrence was unaware of. In the following weeks, the band's final lineup then began to meet one another, and soon writing again. On December 6, 2022, they released the single "Great Grief", the first song written as a band following their reunion, which was followed on January 3, 2023, by the single "Atone".
Forward to September 15, 2023, they released the single "Puncture Wounds To Heaven", and announced it would be a part of their upcoming third studio album.

Little Bird
Casey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Couldn't help you with your pain, but always hoped that you were safe.
It took hours of silent phone calls for me to finally realise that just because you act with the best of intentions, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't be wrong.
I thought my heart could be our home, but all you thought of was the cage.
Praying for the sun, beneath my ribs you sat in shade.
You were my little bird and I saw fit to clip your wings, and then resented you because for me you never chose to sing.
I guess that's why it never felt like home, because we'd lay together but were still alone.
Desperate for the warmth of someone's comfort but not our own.
We were always vacant, nothing more; we spoke until our throats were sore.
Our hearts lay on the bedroom floor, and
one was mine, but both were yours.
I'm sorry I could never find the words to say, I had chewed them all into my tongue.
Your negligence has left me frail.
I never asked to fall in love so young.
I know I promised not to call again, but I've still got so much to say.
I hope to God that you are sleeping well, I hope that someday you will ache the way I ache.
Someday you will ache the way I ache.
The lyrics of Little Bird by Casey are a reflection of a broken and toxic relationship. The first verse starts with the singer telling how they would still love and care for the other person even if they were not aware of it. They also admit that despite being well-intentioned, they were not able to heal the pain of their partner. The realization of the singer that just because they wanted to help did not mean they were doing the right thing sets a serious tone for the song.
The next few lines bring out the essence of the whole song as the singer talks about how they thought their love could heal and be the home of their lover, but it turned out to be more like a cage that stifled the other person. The lyrics describe how the singer clipped the wings of their lover, suffocated them emotionally, and then resented them for not singing. They lament how their relationship became a living hell, and although they were physically present with each other, there was a glaring emotional abscess that was left untreated.

The anguish in his voice in the final lyrics are so relatable and hits home. "Some day you will ache the way I ache"

To me the room with the lady typing seems like a therapist waiting room. As for the rest, it repeats the same locations which to me reads as a reference to how he's just going through the motions while not making him happier. But still feel like I missed some stuff
